For the first few minutes, I thought Garry K. did a pretty good job: Ignore the morons, and carry on respectfully... like letting his own civility teach the cretins a lesson. (That's probably how Reagen would want it handled.)
What amazed me was that he then used the next song, a gospel, to ridicule Reagen, singing, "Let the light from your White House shine on me!" (Thus suggesting Reagen is Christ, an obviously ironic put-down.)

I thought the song was respectful, especially in light of his previous comments, but you could be right. I don't know enough about Keillor to discern a sarcastic meaning to the song.

(Thus suggesting Reagen is Christ, an obviously ironic put-down.)Just because you were so hysterical, I listened again. It's "Light from your LIGHT house" dangus. It's a hymn, and a harmless one.
There is NO ridicule here. NONE. silly.

What? I heard him say "lighthouse" and didn't sense any ridicule or any implication that Reagan was Christ.
