Ad on DU for a partiucularly henoius-looking conservative book..
Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed! (Hardcover)

From the Publisher
Would you let your child read blatantly liberal stories with titles such as "King & King;" "No, George, No;" or "It's Just a Plant?"

Unless you live in Haight-Ashbury or write for the New York Times, probably not. But with the nation's libraries and classrooms filled with overtly liberal children's books advocating everything from gay marriage to marijuana use, kids everywhere are being deluged with left-wing propaganda.

"Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed" is the book conservative parents have been seeking. This illustrated book -- the first in the "Help! Mom!" series from Kids Ahead -- is perfect for parents who seek to share their traditional values with their children, as well as adults who wish to give a humorous gift to a friend.

Praised by Rush Limbaugh and hailed as "the answer to a baseball mom's prayers" by talk radio host Melanie Morgan, this book has already been the subject of coverage in The Wall Street Journal and Harper's magazine. Written by a self-proclaimed "Security Mom for Bush" and featuring hilarious full-color illustrations by a Reuben Award winning artist, it is certain to be one of the most talked about children's books of the year.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0976726904/qid=1097359582/sr=2-1/ref=pd_ka_2_1/002-0945136-2953608?n=283155

OK, so the conservatives want to make crappy books teaching kids that liberals are crazy.. but why advertise for it on DU?

2. Re:
Hope that the kids who read that eventually grow up to be liberals....or at least open-minded.

A link in the LGBT forum to a church that (ahem) 'cures' homosexuality.
