1) The “finish the kitchen” theory of health-care reform.

2) I think the "Netflix of dating" would match you to partners based on how other people like you had rated their dates.

3) Citibank's new business strategy appears to be based on the theory that AIG's business strategy was a really good idea.

4) Waterboarding such total non-torture that it's being used on kids.

5) D.C. to get even more snow.

Julian Sanchez has a lot of smart things to say about remix culture in this video.

Speaking of remix culture, I'll be on Olbermann tonight.

Hey, I'll do this again. Here's an older style sort of nonhipster remixing idea, from Brad Paisley

And if you didn't like that, here's Brad playing for President Obama at the White House. He can play a guitar, for sure, and can get plenty mushy while doing so.

Unfortunately, the "Netflix of Dating" would recommend dates who people like you had ultimately dumped, or who had ultimately dumped people like you.

Also, I think a "Netflix of Dating" would involve intending to date someone, but after six months of their sitting on the couch, admitting that you're never going to date them and that you should dump them for someone else.

I love it when you are on Keith or Rachel- or any show for that matter. Now, what can we do to get you invited to the President's meeting on health care at the end of this month?

Ezra,

Do you have enough courage to take on the most controversial part of the whole Obama-Reid-Pelosi agenda?

If they managed to get the Senate bill passed in the House, HOW WOULD THAT EFFECT A MIDDLE CLASS FAMILIES ABILITY TO PRIVATELY CONTRACT WITH THEIR PERSONAL DOCTOR in the event that their healthcare insurance won't cover something?

Today, there is no limit. If this bill is passed, it would seem as though the Medicare rules on private contracting become applicable....except unlike Medicare this new federal exchange would become so pervasive that finding a doctor willing to accept a 2 year ban on practicing medicine within the exchange will be a heck of a lot hard to find....


Please please please POST something on this subject!!!!

In an earlier age, Julian Sanchez would have his own show on PBS, and he'd still be there in 30 years. I have no idea where he goes in the current media environment. But I will be following along.
