This is Modern “Feminism”

By Mitch Berg

Former state representative Phyllis Kahn, commenting on Minnesota public radio’s upcoming pledge week:

I, myself, have chosen to remember how Garrison Keillor treated…

… Well, everybody. By all accounts, Keillor was obsequious to those he saw as his “superiors” – presidents, governors (provided they were Democrats) and stars – mildly ingratiating to peers who, in his opinion, could help him, and rude, dismissive and arrogant to those he saw as “below” him. And the legends about him as an employer should follow him into the next life, if there is cosmic justice.

It’s not hard to imagine that Phyllis Kahn believes there is one set of rules for everyone else, and one for the likes of her and Garrison Keillor; she’s the one that used her political clout to Jimmy the Minneapolis city code to ptrvent De La Salle high school from putting up lights at it’s football stadium – to avoid harsh and her nighttime mellow.

    We might say to yes, see how they treated Garrison Keillor; as untouchable. Gosh, you want your sisters and daughters to be safe? Put your wallet back in your pocket when MPR comes calling. It’s not everything, but it’s a good step.

    You want your sons to be safe too, there are predators of that ilk there as well.

    Phyllis also wanted “voter ID” in her caucuses when the Somalis started to take over and pushed their candidates ahead of her.
