or, Ten of the Most Damaging Winger Books of All Time

the opinion mill

Good morning, class. Yesterday we talked about the list of dangerous books compiled by the little orcs at Human Events Online, which asked you to believe that Betty Friedan's "The Feminine Mystique" and Rachel Carson's early warning about the dangers of runaway pollution deserved to be ranked with "Mein Kampf" and Chairman Mao's little red book. (It also expected you to believe that Phyllis Schlafly devotes evenings to getting her brain around Comte's "The Course of Positive Philosophy," but that's another diatribe.)

As promised, here is The Opinion Mill's own bibliography of blight, compiled with an eye to acknowledging those books that have done the most damage. Some, in fact, are still warping impressionable young minds. Where is the outrage? What will we tell the children? Read on...
