Keillor's venom is masked by his soft, mellifluous voice on those dreadfully unfunny audio shows. He's perpetually stuck in some sort of reverse-o-world a liberal's view of a pre WWII America. (He's that old fashioned.)
Keillor is stuck in this time warp, when liberal did mean 'nice to black folk' but before the horrors of true leftism (Stalinism, FDRism, Maoism, Ho Chi Minhism) were revealed to the world.
He's angry that his metaphors no longer hold; angry that he's run out of material after skewering Christians for decades and ultimately, he knows we are right. Keillor's social posturing as a critic of the right is a boring thing of the past. We no longer have a tolerance for a mean-spirited, if soft spoken Leftist putting down Christians for praying, for seeking better things for mankind. Over time, he's painted himself into a corner with his books and radio shows and now all he can do is lash out like an insane animal at a fictitious foe made up of his own family ghosts.
This is what Leftists do -- they project their own darkness onto their "enemies" because they are not reconciled to the fact of their own sin. Keillor's descriptions of "Republicans" are really psychological portraits of none other than the author himself.

Well said. If only mr buttermilk biscuit had a clue. Methinks he is too busy feathering his nest.
