GULFPORT, Miss. -- Library officials in two southern Mississippi counties have banned Jon Stewart's best-selling "America (The Book)" over the satirical textbook's nude depictions of the nine U.S. Supreme Court justices.
"I've been a librarian for 40 years and this is the only book I've objected to so strongly that I wouldn't allow it to circulate," said Robert Willits, director of the Jackson-George Regional Library System of eight libraries in Jackson and George counties.
"We're not an adult bookstore. Our entire collection is open to the entire public," Willits said. "If they had published the book without that one picture, that one page, we'd have the book."
Okay, its not like their having a God Damned orgy. It's my understanding and I understand very little, that Supreme Court Justice's don't just do nude group portraits, well..that I know of. Nudity is not pornography and I'm not certain, but I can take a guess that you couldn't find Mr. Stewart's Book at your local porn shop, but you can bet your chocolate starfish, I will personally go find out tomorrow, just to be sure, you know, to perserve freedom of speech n' all.
