Am I bored? Yes I am...

This is the book believed to be the one Sarah Palin wanted to burn. A paperback at the bargain price of $500.00.

I don't know if the seller increased the price after the controversy or not.

I think it was this one. (none / 0)

Aha, the plot thickens... You're absolutely right, that title is also mentioned in some reports, along with the lesbian counterpart "Heather has two mommies".

I guess she's no big fan of books trying to explain homosexuality.

Who knows what is true though, in the end no books ended up being burned or banned. But just inquiring about it and trying to fire the librarian is quite unsettling.

Anyways, just thought the price of the book was quite funny. I know out-of-print books are sold for inflated prices on Amazon, but this is the highest I've seen so far...

Seems like a decent enough book, to teach Christians to do what Christianity is all about - show some compassion. I'd flip through it, but not if it will put me back half a grand, obviously.

The author, minister Howard Bess is quite outspoken against Sarah Palin, check out this interview with him from Salon.com

I saw the $500 and thought maybe McCain was selling his shoes or something.
