I think that's how Mr. Keillor meant it as well. Of course people can have honest differences about his views. Kevin, I just thought it was funny. I think that’s how Mr. Keillor meant it as well.

That shouldn't even be a factor we even think about when we think about our President. Instead, we should be looking at his character and experience. I'm saying this based on my own personal convictions, where I believe the killing of unborn babies, and gay marriage, both of which are inherently wrong. Now we have a president-elect who thinks this stuff is ok... So I'm shocked that Obama's "coolness" is something people think is more important. I've always liked Garrison Keillor, so I'm disappointed in him saying this ridiculous crap. I've always liked you, too, Pito, and this changes nothing in that regard... but it just always ticks me off that "cool" could be an important factor on anything after High School.
