Ms. Price, you and Ms. Leicester seem determined to defend the indefensible. Along with Mr. Keillor and most educated Americans, I recognize how difficult it is to avoid being angry when seeing the waste and detritus being pawned off on our nation with the suggestion that it represents growth and improvement. Frankly, I deeply admire Mr. Keillor for his ability to restrain himself to the extent that he has. Most of us, having hoped to hand our children a nation which is truly a 'shining light', are livid; we can see what is coming, and it is too terrible to imagine.
Even so, none of us wants to see you unhappy, angry or disappointed. Is it possible that you might find elsewhere the sorts of articles that don't upset you as much?
Mr. Brown, my original comment was that although Mr. Keillor said he was focusing on the positive aspects of life, I pointed out that clearly, to me, he was not. And then I suggested he refrain from venting his anger in his posts which I mostly enjoy and will continue to read, unless someone wants to censor me for having a differing opinion.
I find it quite interesting that any pushback to the twisted defense of a man inherently unfit for the position he’s about to assume is labeled “censorship”. I’m looking forward to seeing the author’s show in Key West next month, while I deplore the censorship forced on Floridians by an overly ambitious governor.
Exactly right. With the death of the Fairness Doctrine the floodgates were opened to the right wing opportunists, who have milked it into the discord we now face.

It needed to be said! Thank you!
Individuals can't censor. Governments censor. Telling you to go elsewhere has nothing whatever to do with censorship.
