Reconciliation
Recap: What John Boehner needs to do to change the tone on entitlements; why conservatives should support campaign-finance reform; and remember when every single Senate Republican voted to call the individual mandate a “tax”?
Elsewhere:
1) Paul Krugman says you should read this blog in general, and Wonkbook in particular. And he has a Nobel prize. (Click here to subscribe to Wonkbook.)
2) Fix it first, expand it second, reward it third: A new strategy for America’s highways.
3) I’m also excited for X-Men: First Class.
4) Richard Freeman on unions.
5) “By the time most teens find themselves in a Planned Parenthood or other reproductive health clinic, they are already sexually active and there to get contraception.”
