Paul Krugman gets snarky

From today's New York Times:

Let’s start with the good news: The House bill, which the Congressional Budget Office says would provide coverage to five million children who would otherwise be uninsured.

The bill is so good that it has Republicans spluttering. “The bill uses children as pawns,” declared Representative Pete Sessions of Texas. Yes, the Democrats are exploiting children — by providing them with health care.

The horror, the horror!

In spite of the President's veto threat, the Senate passed a similar bill with a veto proof majority yesterday. Good on them.
