The LA Times has a list of Mr. Goldberg’s recent columns here. (Hint, they are about how progressives are in favor of appeasing terrorists, death, and I believe, banning ice cream for children.)

Tribune Media Services offers a 90 day archive of Mr. Keillor’s recent columns. While they are occasionally political, the criticism is light, not vitriolic. Most of the colums are about telling stories about his family and friends, or Americana.

Yup. Pretty balanced stuff.

His column, however, is nothing like Goldberg's. For example, this hard-hitting piece from Keillor oddly dated this coming Sunday: http://www.pantagraph.com/columnists/keillor.shtml Yeah, that's right. A piece about his thoughts about mortality and his neighbor's cat. Jonah's latest column on TownHall? http://www.townhall.com/Columnists/JonahGoldberg/2006/07/07/superman_vs_the_lone_ranger Another thoughtfully developed attack on CNN, Reuters, the Supreme Court, and Hollywood. Yup. Definitely balanced. Sure, Keillor is a liberal. His column, however, is nothing like Goldberg’s.
