Poor Persecuted Catholics
Another great moniker to go along with SCGS ...

It should really be titled Keillor versus Irate Catholic Listener, because I don't really think this kind of give-and-take is on Benedict's event horizon as pope.
Painting Garrison Keillor as anti-Catholic is a bit extreme. He's a comedian. He makes fun of people and things, and if he's anti-Catholic, I'm afraid the Lutherans have taken the number ahead of RC's if we're talking what comes to pass his lips from Lake Wobegon.
I really wish my companion Catholics would give up this whining the first sign somebody disagrees with them or pokes fun. It's the same kind of victimhood the crunchy-cons criticize in just about every other minority group. It makes me want to ask, "Do you want the biggest boat in the pond, or do you want to be like every other oppressed minority?"
Sheesh, if you want to be the One, Holy, and Only, for heaven's sake, start acting like it.
