Reading List

1) For those still eager to learn more about macro-economics and the stimulus, Dave Leonhardt did a nice piece on why the stimulus pacakge looks the way it does, why not bigger? why not smaller? etc.

2) Anthony Zinni is a former Marine general for whom I have a great deal of respect. He is a moderate with extensive knowledge of the Middle East. Obama has unfortunately really pissed him off by reneging allegedly on an offer for him to become Ambassador to Iraq...oops.

3) Big fan of Chuck Todd from NBC, he gives his take on the first big political battle for Obama, the stimulus bill, lessons learned etc.
