Garrison Keillor gets mad
See this article entitled 'We're Not in Lake Wobegon Anymore'
http://www.inthesetimes.com/site/main/article/979/
"How did the Party of Lincoln and Liberty transmogrify into the party of Newt Gingrich’s evil spawn and their Etch-A-Sketch president, a dull and rigid man, whose philosophy is a jumble of badly sutured body parts trying to walk?"

1. Wonderful! Love the line "Hypocrisies shine like cat turds in the
moonlight." Just wonderful.

5. Beautiful...
Keillor is such a bright, quirky writer and speaker. Wonder if the GOP will boycott "Lake Wobegon" now. MKJ

Just kidding, great article. The man is incandescently pissed. Hi, Jerseygirltoo, I'm a Jerseyboytoo, born in Jersey City and raised in Bergen County.
