Kudos to Dan Radosh for pointing out this great book review by Garrison Keillor (no, really!). I could barely contain my giggles at his thrashing of Bernard-Henri Levy's "American Vertigo."
Despite what our favorite contrarian, Mr. Hitchens, may think, this goes back to something I know I've mentioned here before, that is, European writers just don't get America. Even some of the best ones (I'm thinking Umberto Eco and perhaps herr Hitchens himself) just get it all wrong.
Anyhow, for those struggling with the flow chart: BHL criticizes America, Keillor bashes BHL, Hitchens berates Keillor, Radosh calls Hitchens on humorless-ness, PoF throws food from the peanut gallery.
Semi-related: BHL finds the American left is in a coma.
