Book Banning?

According to Drudge, Kerry calls on the publisher of Unfit for Command to withdraw the book at Salon.com. Ummm, okay. Maybe he should call on publishers of about 50 books on Bush to withdraw their books, most notably Joe Wilson's book The Politics of Truth. Fahrenheit 7-11, too. Although this is pure political grand standing, it does bother me that the left seems to have been flirting with some very anti-American positions this last year. Say what you want about Bush, at least he's not a book burner (you Nazi cow), to borrow a line from Field of Dreams.

Private industry and organizations can do whatever they want when it comes to speech, but a candidate for the highest office in the land should not be making this kind of appeal.
