Sorry. Old news. I should check the dates.

Not only that but why would anyone care what Garrison Keillor thinks?

I would care what Garrison Keillor thinks if I actually knew who he was.

He has a very entertaining variety radio show on public radio. He also unfortunately like so many other celebrities (well "sort of" celebrities) lets his popularity go to his head and opens him mouth about political shyt thus annoying the heck out of everyone except other fruitcakes like himself.

Entertaining? he's just another midwest dipsh*t who watched too much Little House on the Praire growing up. We should annex the whole area to Canada, see who can bore each other to tears first.

Keillor is a poster boy for National Public Radio, where "public" means "self-congratulatory white middle-class bo-bo Volvo drivers."

He's also a spectacular phony, cultivating an aura of gentle folksiness while in reality being an utterly nasty piece of work. Loathsome person.

Well.

Since this generated such interest, here's the article from last year:

Weasel Zippers: Garrison Keillor Rips Rolling Thunder for Their "Hollow Patriotism".....Seemingly Unaware They're Mostly Veterans....

Wasn't "Rolling Thunder" a name they used for B-52 bomber strikes in Vietnam?

B-52 strikes are call "Arclight". Rolling Thunder was the bombing campaign against a bridge in North Vietnam.

Rolling Thunder was F101's, either way it's a cool name and ol' Garrison is a true take it up the butt pansy.....don't look like he made too many friends judging by the reaction to his missinformed screed
