The same guy who told us in early 2010 that the 2000-page ObamaCare bill was as simple to understand as a Dick & Jane book now has trouble with a considerably shorter document – the Constitution.
Washington Post writer and JournoList refugee Ezra Klein showed up on MSNBC Thursday. He’s upset because Republicans want to (gasp) read the Constitution at the beginning of the new Congress. Oddly enough, he seems to think the document is obsolete.
To summarize his position, “Nobody can understand what it means because it’s over 100 years old.”
Let’s not come down too hard on Klein. He does seem to have a wee bit of trouble understanding anything that’s over 100 years old. Helen Thomas, for example, is almost as old as the Constitution and Klein could never understand that she was anti-Semitic.
At least he’s consistent.
