'Help! Mom!' casts liberals as villains

WASHINGTON -- Katharine DeBrecht, a married mother of three, wanted to make a point about the importance of conservative values.
So, she penned a children's book -- "Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed!" -- to stand up to the "liberal agenda that's being thrown at our kids from the left."
**SNIP**
Liberals have lambasted the book as "brainwashing" and "Nazi propaganda." The Democratic Underground Web site listed Mrs. DeBrecht as one of its "Top 10 Conservative Idiots" last month.
"If ever there was a book that public libraries should ban, it is this one," one outraged reviewer wrote on Amazon.com.
Sheldon Rampton of the Center for Media and Democracy, a watchdog for corporate propaganda in Madison, Wis., voiced concern about marketing the book to children.
"If this were a parody for adult entertainment, I would see it as that. But if this is a book that is actually intended for kids to read, then I think there's a problem with it," Mr. Rampton said.
Children aren't necessarily sophisticated enough to understand these kinds of policies, and "liberals under the bed" sounds like "monsters under the bed," Mr. Rampton said. "Kids have enough real things that their parents need to teach them to stay away from."
Mrs. DeBrecht, who is active in South Carolina Republican politics, said she is too busy working on her next books to be bothered by liberal "whining."
"Help! Mom! Hollywood Is in My Hamper," which takes on politicking liberal celebrities, is due in March, she said, and lawyers and judges soon will be the stars of their own "Help! Mom!" books.

yeah, notably including Leftists.
seems a worthy addition to the old Popular Mechanics series "The Boy Mechanic"
The liberal attitude towards free speech, in a nutshell.
Hmm. I just did some searches on my library website.
The system owns over fifty Ann Coulter books, lots of copies of "Unfit for Command", and 7 copies of "Men in Black" by Mark Levin. I just requested "Help, Mom!". We'll see what happens. : )
And liberals are one of them.
How Hitlerian, lol!
Somebody PLEASE find me an email address for this woman!
My new wife and I don't have any kids yet, but I still plan to buy the book just to pi** off liberals.
Happy Sunday back at you, IK! I heard Rush review this bok and thought, I must get a copy :) Thanks for the ping, hope all is well with you.
LOL!
NO, George, NO! The Re-Parenting of George W. Bush
Book Description
This is a book about a President named George who has a dream. In this dream, George becomes a little boy, and he meets a Truth Fairy who is trying to teach him lessons about How to not manipulate the Media, How to treat Veterans, How to be honest, How to be respectful with families who have lost soldiers in war, How to go to War only when necessary, How not to label people as Boogeymen, How not to invade countries, How to control greed, How to hold fair elections, and How to behave as a leader. Though there are political lessons and footnotes for people to learn more, the ultimate lesson in the 32 paged hard cover children's style 81/2" x 11" book is that we are all connected; we are all one. On his journey while playing the game of "Let's Imagine" with the Truth Fairy, the young boy George learns many other lessons, including the fact that it is up to each of us to create the person we are becoming.
Actually, they react favorably to pornography, pedophilia, and other atrocities; it's decency they can't stand...

How true that is. Great line.
But, but,but... are'nt those the same smart kids raised by "The Village?" Golly! Hitlery thinks so.
And the same to you! By the way, if all of you want a great read, try,
"Intellectual Morons... How Ideology Makes Smart People Fall for Stupid Ideas' by Daniel J. Flynn. He also wrote another liberal-killer book, "Why the Left Hates America." Read 'em both and collect great ammo against the libidiots!
Amazingly, I found "Intellectual Morons" in that liberal bastion of leftist books, Costco. Mama mia!
But I'll bet there's high praise for "The Anarchist's Cookbook" or "How to Overthrow your Government." Proving once again that the left hates life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and intends to shove its death wish down everyone's throat.
And I see the leftists, true to form, want to actually BAN a book which details how the liberals are dangerous to American values. How very liberal of them. /sarcasm
"Its funny how liberals react with such visceral distate to conservatism. You'd think they were being subjected to pornography."
All true except the for medium of exposure. Try listing the Bible instead. A lib would welcome pornography--"it's their right."
"Kinda makes you wonder if the NEA is in bed with Planned Parenthood. Follow the money."
Of course they are!
And they call us Nazis. How ironic.
