Overheard: WTH?

“So what the hell is going on with you and Medicare?”

— Sen. Tom Harkin asking Sen. Ron Wyden during votes tonight. Presumably, Harkin was referring to work Wyden is doing with House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan on changing the way Medicare is structured. Democrats have criticized Republicans, and Ryan in particular, for their proposals to change the way the health care program is run.
