Reason Writers Around Town: Peter Suderman Talks Health Care, Marijuana, and Ted Kennedy on Inside Washington Weekly

What's new in the health-care debate? Does Ted Kennedy's death matter? And is the tide turning on marijuana legalization? Associated editor Peter Suderman talks about these questions and more with Megan McArdle, Michael Brendan Dougherty, and host David White on this week's Inside Washington Weekly. 

Comments

In the interest of full disclosure, does he mention his McArdle connection?

[kilroy]

Suderman is a tool.

[SugarFree]

Disingenuous bullshit and hollow platitudes aren't new, so no.
No.
Yes, exactly like it did in the 60s. Tides come in and then they go out.

[Peter Suderman]

Anonymous writer number one: David brought it up on the last panel, but this is a regular thing (we're on a recurring panel, and have been for more than a year), so we don't bring it up every time.

Peter,

Hopefully the disclosure was along the lines of "Aw, yeah! I been hittin' that!"

Or something equally as classy.

[Ska]

"Glad to be here Dave. Yo, smell my finger!!"

[SugarFree]

"This is my future ex-wife."

[Gunboat Diplomacy]

"Aw, yeah! I been hittin' that!"

"Glad to be here Dave. Yo, smell my finger!!"

I love you guys!

Suderman is a tool.

What kind of tool is he?

[Gunboat Diplomacy]

"What kind of tool is he?"

A dildo is a tool, right?

[(Not) Megan]

"What kind of tool is he?"

A jackhammer. [swoon]

[SugarFree]

A dildo is a tool, right?

I believe it is some sort of lever.

[Road Band Drummer]

What Reason needs is an open Bash Suderman thread.

[Episiarch]

So is Suderman the new Weigel? Does he look like a cross between Conway Twitty and Charlie Sheen too?

[Xeones]

Epi, he actually looks more like a cross between Joe Don Baker and Rowan Atkinson, only Latino.

[Random Guy]

Suder-Man is a shill for the Democrats!

[kilroy]

"What kind of tool is he?"

A rake with only 2 tines.

[Episiarch]

Epi, he actually looks more like a cross between Joe Don Baker and Rowan Atkinson, only Latino.

I thought that was Warty. Wait a second...

[Jordan]

I guess I missed a thread. What's with all the Suderman bashing?

[Gunboat Diplomacy]

"I guess I missed a thread. What's with all the Suderman bashing?"

Ever read his work?

[Dagny T.]

Joe Don Baker

Mitchell! It all makes sense now.

[Xeones]

I thought that was Warty. Wait a second...

Warty looks like if Gary Busey swallowed Michael Moore.
