Freudian slip?

Well, only if I believed in Freud the way I do Darwin.

Matthew Yglesias in talking about the latest politico to have an embarrassing moment, claiming he was in Vietnam when he wasn't:

"people have been urging Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal to run for hire office"

"hire office" I like that.

Sort of like our stipendiary pundotcracy.
