PALIN DISSES CONOCOPHILLIPS,
MULVA IN VP DEBATE

 

"You know what I had to do in the state of Alaska? I had to take on those oil companies and tell them, "No," you know, any of the greed there that has been kind of instrumental, I guess, in their mode of operation, that wasn't going to happen in my state.

And that's why Tillerson at Exxon and Mulva at ConocoPhillips, bless their hearts, they're doing what they need to do, as corporate CEOs, but they're not my biggest fans, because what I had to do up there in Alaska was to break up a monopoly up there and say, you know, the people are going to come first and we're going to make sure that we have value given to the people of Alaska with those resources."

-Gov. Palin, Oct. 2, 2008, during Vice-Presidential Debate

The Dismissal of Miss Ruth Brown

The Dismissal of Miss Ruth Brown:
Civil Rights, Censorship, and the American Library
by Louise S. Robbins

In 1950 Ruth W. Brown, librarian at the Bartlesville Public Library, was summarily dismissed from her job after thirty years of exemplary service, ostensibly because she had circulated subversive materials.
