For all his faux-folksiness, Garrison Keillor has long been known - or should I say infamous - for being one of the angriest liberals on planet Earth. He rarely leaves the Upper West Side of Manhattan, except to do his radio show, because to him it's the only place populated by people as intelligent as Garrison Keillor. In fact, he even tried to move his radio show to Manhattan, but it was a gigantic flop, so he had to move it back to Minnesota and keep whipping up the Lake Wobegon BS to keep the cash rolling in. He is bitter, angry, and just plain mean. He is to be pitied and laughed at.

Except to dump his wife, marry someone a lot younger, move to Denmark, find out he couldn't really do his schtick there, and then move back.

What a sad thing! This is a really, seriously talented and original man, who has done fabulous work in print and on the radio. And his politics are just about what you'd expect of a movie star. Of course, satiric writers are not known for level-headedness. Cf., Kurt Vonnegut, Joseph Heller, Gore Vidal, Norman Mailer, Woody Allen, etc.

No kidding. Libs pride themselves on thinking they are more intelligent and superior than the rest of the proletariat. Their charade is a delusion, and a failing one at that.
