Ezra Klein is a writer for the Washington Post who many consider to be the leftwing media's rising star - the next Paul Krugman perhaps. He supported single-payer and was the founder of Journolist which essentially was a way for all of the leftwing media types to get together online and collude on how best to attack the right and come up with the best narratives each could use in furtherance of that effort. Anyway, on Morning Joe, Klein went up against the man credited with starting the Tea Party with his righteous rant on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange back in February of 2009, Rick Santelli.
It's easy to spot Klein's elitist smugness but what makes this great is his elder - Santelli - thoroughly schools him.
