The New York Times quote of the day: "Do you think anybody in Washington has any idea what people on a limited income have to do to live?" ED HUMAN, 68, on legislation in Congress to add prescription drug benefits (registration required) to Medicare.

Two things. I think we should replace use of Joe Schmoe and John Q. Public with Ed Human. I love that name. And second, didn't I say something similar about the child tax credit debacle?

Alright three things. It would have been better if Mr. Human had said "anybody in Congress" because the majority of District residents do live on a limited income. Which makes the disparity even more outrageous.
