Poor Bobo
By Krugman can’t resist the ball he put up on a tee after leaving the Appebee’s salad bar:
At the beginning of last week, the commentariat was in raptures over the Serious, Courageous, Game-Changing Ryan plan. But now that the plan has been exposed as the cruel nonsense it is, what we’re hearing a lot about is the need for more civility in the discourse. President Obama did a bad thing by calling cruel nonsense cruel nonsense; he hurt Republican feelings, and how can we have a deal when the GOP is feeling insulted? What we need is personal outreach; let’s do lunch!
Somebody needs to be the new Broder, and by not only transcribing Ryan’s pathetic whining about lunch but taking it seriously, Bobo leaps to the front of the class.
