With Nat Gas at $2.50 per million BTU, oil at $17.00 per million BTU; when are the energy compaines going to revisit coal & gas to oil processing?

They have to be thinking about arbitraging a spread like that.

Doesn’t the “drill, baby, drill” crowd claim, he argues, that prices will drop “if only we would stop protecting the environment and let energy companies do whatever they want”?

Lying turd. No one has ever said “stop protecting the environment”.

If Paul Krugman is such an economic genius, why doesn’t he save the NY Times?

The New York Times is a practitioner of advocacy journalism.(NBC news and the Guardian in England are other blatant examples) They have a very left wing perspective and report and slant “news” to coincide with their political preferences. Paul Krugman is a political polemicist and clearly is not to be confused with an honest economist. He actually advocated that Greece return to the drachma and still advocates increased deficit spending and debt. Even the Greeks laughed at him. His policies have led to misery and poverty. He will contort his position to support the Obama administration in any way possible. The problem is that his nonsense is repeated by the amen media and does confuse foolish voters.

A communist economist. I don’t think Krugman has ever had an idea that didn’t involve forced labor and a 5-year plan.

Btw, Krugman, it’s “Drill HERE Drill Now” not “drill, Baby, drill”.

Krugman qualifies as a fracking idiot.

He’s also the most predictable economist out there. If “it” (whatever “it” is) benefits lefties, then he will conjure numbers out of thin air to show that we are idiots if we don’t do “it”.

He’s not worth reading.

How does Krugman and the NY Times benefit from providing cover and free campaign commercials for Democrats and the Administration?
