    Ironically, it is a historically significant anti-slavery commentary, as well.

    right so what was your point again?

    thats your thing, you imply something and then are unwilling to defend it.

    does that crowd even exist anymore regarding questions like this? i dont even think this publisher guy is serious. and if he is, he is a joke. the literary and publishing communities are way beyond this sort of stupidity for the most part.

    of course, the ****** jim character is basically the embodiment of trust and goodness in the book.

    pay attention, they replaced it with "slave"

    finally a topic that olberman and limbaugh agree on.

    Samuel Clemens would not approve.

    I don't see the problem anyway. Kids don't read anymore.

    i am still wondering what you meant here, it appears you do not intend to explain. like i said before, you are a coward that implies something and then is unwilling to defend it. it helps me understand why people become truthers. incredibly shameful and weak character.
