Alert! Krugman Forced to Eat with Elderly Tea Party Folks!!

Poor, Paul Krugman. Though he might try to rid his vision of those horrible people who refuse to share his worldview, alas, he is forced at times to eat with the Great Unwashed:

I just had dinner in DC with a bunch of geographers, at a cute French bistro near Dupont Circle. And who should walk in but about eight tea partiers, still carrying their protest signs. They marched in, then upstairs, and sat down for dinner.

Presumably their steak frites came with freedom fries.

Oh, and based on casual observation, every member of the group was on Social Security and Medicare. I guess they’re determined not to let the government get its hands on either program.

No doubt, Krugman will be a happy camper when those supposedly non-existent, money-saving Death Panels take care of those dissidents.
