Sequestration Is Mr. Creosote's After-Dinner Mint

I'm beginning to think Larry Summers is a fool.  (Yes, you can have his pedigree and stature and still be a fool.  In fact, it is some ways more likely to have that pedigree and be a fool.)

The sequestration is like Mr. Creosote in the famous Monty Python sketch actually forgoing the "waafer thin" after dinner mint.
