Normally, I’d be a little embarrassed to present a Simpsons character explaining something as important as the coming “fiscal cliff.”
But I’ve seen the politicians explaining this over the last few weeks and if they’re not embarrassed, well…
Oh, and only slightly off topic, did someone say Simpson?
Bob Collins retired from Minnesota Public Radio in 2019 after 12 years of writing NewsCut and pointing out to complainants that posts weren’t news stories. A son of Massachusetts, he was a news editor 1992-1998, created the MPR News regional website in 1999, invented the popular Select A Candidate, started several blogs, and every day lamented that his Minnesota Fantasy Legislature project never caught on.
