E.J. Dionne, Jr. on the Deficit Game
"Obama and the Failure of the Deficit Hawks" -- The president has proposed some serious spending cuts and some modest revenue increases to keep things stable. This annoys his deficit-obsessed critics. He should smile, let them rage, and go about his business.

Ruth Marcus on the Real Social Security Problem

‘Reality’ Revisited By Shaun Randol Many years ago, when I first encountered Garrison Keillor and his droll tales of the good people of the sad town of Lake Wobegon, I took the stories to be true. Young and unaware of National Public Radio, I was unfamiliar with the author and the weekly radio program on which Keillor weaves amusing and sweet tales of the fictional Minnesota town.
