Star of Stage Screen and Radio, Enters Political Arena

Ah, you see through political correctness. The left's way to criminalize conservative thought.

All dissent is "hate speech".

Keilor is getting rave reviews for his new movie after going into full Democrat mode.

He and the Dixie Chicks are the local paper's favorite.

Well, let's tally...

This paragon of folksy liberal tolerance deliberately attacks, in his spit-and-vitriol coming-out bid for election-year attention: high school wrestling coaches, Baptists, the city of Waco, Texas, "lite jazz," and the elderly.

The commercial endorsement of Apple's iPod over the products of Creative, its primary competitor, doesn't look accidental to me (Disclaimer: I much prefer Creative's products).

And what's with all the "auto-Godwining" statements this week by liberals? Everywhere I read -- prepared releases from Democratic "leaders," the Dixie Chicks' suicidal spewings, sound bites from the moonbat conventions in Las Vegas and D.C., and now fake-folker Keillor's vomitus -- I find the spector of Nazi revival paraded as though the next steps must surely be a fire in the Reichstag and suspension of the Constitution!

Note to self: Shut up and give them more air time and column inches! As the "woman who comes from a district where there are known gay persons" says, let's give them time and space to define themselves, saving us the trouble!
