| | |  Laura Mallory wins top honor
The Washington Post has chosen Laura Mallory, the Georgian woman who tried to ban Harry Potter books that she's admittedly never read from school libraries, as the “2006 Idiot of the Year.” Quote:
This vigilant mother of four has demanded local schools remove Harry Potter from their libraries because, in her analysis, the books are an "evil" attempt to indoctrinate children in Wicca religion. Congratulations Laura, and good luck on your quest to eradicate the dark forces which pollute children’s literature.

I'm sorry for her, but she deserves it. I can't say more than that.

Haha! That is perfect! Well deserved. So in the Village of the Harry Potter World she would be considered the Village Idiot correct?  Well may she "Idiot" on.  | |

So judgmental, and she has never even read the books! She should at least do us the courtesy of actually knowing what she's talking about before she starts to bash HP. Award well deserved, though I was so hoping it would go to our dear President.

 That's AWESOME! Stupid woman. HAHA! I feel sorry for her children. They had to endure all her stupidity for a whole year...
The title is quite fitting.
