Behind the Music on Garrison Keillor

Mitch Berg fights fire with fire and ably suffocates Garrison Keillor's continuing series of vicious attacks on Norm Coleman (which, might I add, are all indirectly subsidized by you, Mr. and Ms. Tax Payer). See below for his razor sharp and spot on accurate conclusions, but do yourself a favor and read the whole thing.

So - Keillor, who mercilessly lampooned Republicans who objected to Clinton's philandering, condems Coleman's personal life;

Keillor, whose treatment of other human beings is - words fail me - execrably horrid, wraps the mantel of Wellstone about himself.

Keillor, whose entire public persona is a three-decade-old artifice, condemns Coleman for being a contrivance.

Keillor, whose entire career and fortune was built on public largesse, condems and distrusts the public.

Keillor, whose personal life would seem to have had its wrong turns and whose professional life would make Gordon Gecko blanche, calls down the Scriptures on the head of Norm Coleman.

Here's a verse I like, speaking of Scripture: Psalms 10:2 - The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. In other words - if he doesn't start reeling in the abuse and hubris, Keillor's afterlife is an eternal Lutheran Church basement lutefisk supper.
