The point is Palin tried to ban books. This is not only unconstitutional it is UN American. If McCain/Palin won and she became president, Plain would attempt turn this country into a religious dictatorship. Palin has all the characteristics of the "nasty" antis people who protested outside clinics in the 90s.

I must have missed the press release where Palin advocates turning the US into a religious dictatorship.
How exactly would she go about this? Send the Army in? Claim that it was God's plan and everyone bow down to her holiness?
Really, even if she actually wanted to be an American Pope of some sort, it's not like it's an even remotely possible outcome.
When you make such plainly silly arguments, it only hurts more legitimate ones.
Part of the difficulty now in attacking Palin is that the first attacks were so beyond the pale, that most attacks now lack credibility. When people advance theories such as yours, it just make legitimate points less likely be be believed.
