christian right propaganda posters

This series of Christian Right Propaganda Posters is frightening; only time will tell how narrow the distance is between parody and Karl Rove’s impending “October Surprise.” My favorite is perhaps “Books Are Weapons in the War of Ideas” and its commentary, which contains these words from FDR:

"Books cannot be killed by fire. People die, but books never die. No man and no force can put thought in a concentration camp forever. No man and no force can take from the world the books that embody man's eternal fight against tyranny. In this war, we know, books are weapons."

(Thanks to Andrew Sullivan for the tip.)
