Berkeley Economics Skit Party

Chris Blattman's Blog: Berkeley rocks out: From the latest Berkeley Econ skit party, I Can't Get No Dissertation: Highlights have to include econometricians Paul Ruud and Jim Powell on guitar, Ted Miguel in the perennial African shirt, and Brad Delong crying into someone's dissertation. If that weren't good enough, who ever thought you could combine economics, killer robots, Brad Delong, and econometricians firing lasers guitars? Apparently, the grad students at Berkeley: I can't believe that I'm trying to convince two of the lead singers--Owen Ozier and Pam Jakiela--to work on a project with me in Uganda. ;)
Brad, at the risk of raining on your party, I was just wondering when history judges Yoo, and what he helped turn America into, harshly how will you feel knowing that while Berkeley gave him cover you will go down in history as one who sat on the sidelines doing nothing?
Unless of course you decide to do something.

I am here on this beautiful day because Crooked Timber suckered me into buying Dani Rodrik's book and I am aware of my amazing depth of ignorance in the first 40 pages.
