Hugh Hewitt Smacks Down Inexperienced WaPo Columnist: 'Ezra, You Are 28!'

The exceedlingly pompous Washington Post columnist Ezra Klein got a much-needed scolding from conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt Sunday.
After Klein complained that he couldn't "remember a time when House/Senate/WH sources were as pessimistic... as in these last 3 weeks,” Hewitt smartly shot back, "Ezra, you are 28!"
Ezra, you are 28! MT: "@ezraklein: I can't remember a time when House/Senate/WH sources were as pessimistic... as in these last 3 weeks.”

In fairness to Klein, he's actually 29.
That said, it's pretty darned absurd for a 29-year-old to be saying in public "I can't remember a time."
Give it a decade or two more, kid.
