Idiots du jour: Ten Most Harmful Books of the 19th and 20th Centuries

Human Events Online has this list of harmful books, so the judges win my idiot du jour award (not awarded lately due to slackness; sorry). Check out the list, and then read (some of) the books. Not all of them are harmless; some are no-brainers for a list of bad influences, like Mein Kampf or Mao's Little Red Book, but to put Mill's On Liberty or Friedan's Feminine Mystique on the list is abso-fucking-lutely ridiculous. If this list of books doesn't give you an idea of the sheer ignorance progressives are up against, nothing will.
