WTF (West Bend, Wisconsin, Edition)

Four members of a library board in West Bend, Wis., were dismissed last week for refusing to remove controversial books from the library's young adult section.

Three guesses what "controversial" means in this context.

For some reason I know a bunch of people from West Bend. None of them live there anymore. I WONDER WHY.

The part that surprises me is that they don't foresee the shitstorm that will rain down on them when they try shit like this. Even Sarah Palin didn't win this fight.
