Americans are ironic

In the matter of public libraries I learned a long time ago that our government offficials cannot tell when one is being ironic, so I have stopped that approach.

However the Americans in America haven't got that far with their lessons as this blog by Jon Swift clearly demonatrates. This is dangerous stuff.

The director of the library which caused the article to appear on the front page of the Washington Post has written to defend their actions-- and to deny much of what he is being accused

If THE writer, Jonathan Swift were alive today - I wonder what he would make of the article published in the Washington Post?
