Programming note
Blogging may be a bit slow this morning as I'm doing some real, on-the-ground reporting on our health-care system (read: getting a cough checked out). Please ask CBO not to say anything important till I get back.

@chipjh: Agreed!
If tea doesn't work, Dayquil works wonders for us worker bees! :-)
It's hard enough to find good analysis of the stuff coming out of DC. But the fact that you also have access to the people who know what's actually going on just makes it that much better! Very high degree of credibility!
And this week is at a "high stress level" due to it being (for the umpteenth time) the "critical" play for the finish line for HCR.
Oh when, oh when, will the CBO release their report????

make sure you understand the true underlying costs of your visit!!
Ask your doctor what he/she is going to bill WAPO for this!!
Hope you tried over the counter stuff first!
oh and feel better.

A shot of good Irish Whiskey (In celebration of St. Pat's Day) and 2 Tablespoon of local honey...it will do wonders for that cough.

a week in hawaii for ezra klein....
soft breezes, warm sunshine!
and a chaise lounge on your lanai,
overlooking the sparkly sea,
with a plate of fresh, organic pineapple!
you won the saint patrick's day shamrock lottery:-)

Sounds like a preexisting condition to me.

You've got bronchitis (everyone else does...).
Be sure to take the antibiotics until they're all gone!
Though I do like the Irish whiskey suggestion.

A cough? Or a "cough" (a.k.a. out celebrating St. Patty's Day)?

WOW that was a quick appt. Good thing you're not in Canada or the UK. Not sure if you'd have gotten in and out so fast :-)
