Keillor-hauling

An email correspondent says he agrees - Keillor is a genuine humorist, which is a sadly endangered species these days - but adds this:

But I could let [previous japes at the right] pass, because he didn't make a point of publicly denigrating conservatives. He's crossed the line, though, and seems to be working at becoming a Michael Moore clone. (Evidently he has the managerial skills to fit right in.)

That's too bad. I'll miss hearing about Lake Woebegone.

This whole thing is not about bashing back at the left, by the way - my mom's a liberal democrat, as it happens. It's about trying to exist in a civil society with those with which you disagree.

Keillor's articles set that goal back a long, long way.
