Take a look at this. Garrison Keillor has just published "Homegrown Democrat: A Few Plain Thoughts From the Heart of America," in which he offers this comment on the Grand Old Party:
"They are a party," writes Keillor, "that is all about perceptions, the Christian party that conceals enormous glittering malice and is led by brilliant bandits who are dividing and conquering the sweet land I grew up in. I don't accept this."On a lighter note, he talks about the homespun Scandinavian wisdom that informed his childhood -- "Don't Think You're Special Because You're Not," which is just the local way, he notes, of reminding people to take care of their neighbors.
