Dana Milbank on the Obama Farmers Market
Dana Milbank is a columnist for the Post who snarks everyone. Today he mocks the Obama Farmers Market. The prices he quotes are too high for federal employees, at least those who support a family and are saving to put kids through college. (Over at Volokh Conspiracy, Orin Kerr cites the case of a Federal judge resigning because the pay is too low.) Meanwhile, Obamafoodorama gushes over Michelle's speech and leadership. (I'm trying to resist the urge to imagine what the right may do in 2012 with Milbank's material. All too easy to mock this as elitism for the few, far far away from the plight of the jobless and the middle class.)
