To Krugman:

Oh yeah, what percentage of adults are working in France and Germany? Thought so. Go back to Cuba Comarade Krugman.
He still misses Saigon.
Even Maureen Dowd doesn't take his phone calls.
pure DNC crap....the times has hit bottom
I hope Monica will be paying attention. She'll learn a thing or two.
So he admits we were in a Bush Boom.
It must really suck to be Krugman, always goin' around with a little black rain cloud over your head.
He's on the list with Dowd, Ivins, Clift and other lib-prattlers that I won't waste my time reading.
I'm shocked..you mean..a writer from the ny slime thinks President Bush is doing a bad job..everything I know is a lie...NO NO NO....(sarcasm off)
The economy will eventually turn down. Not now, maybe next year, certainly during the next administration. It would almost be a silver lining if Kerry wins. By '08 Peak Easy will be painfully obvious. Whoever wins in '08 is going to face a horrible economy and no way to fix it.
But how about with this one: What should we be doing differently? For three years many economists have argued that the most effective job-creating policies would be increased aid to state and local governments, extended unemployment insurance and tax rebates for lower- and middle-income families.
I'd like to hear just exactly how Krugman concludes government handouts, at any level, will create jobs, especially when Krugman links this with higher taxes on producers.
If Krugman's proposal is to put more money into the hands of the parasite mascot classes at the expense of the producing class, the only way that this could actually create jobs is if the producing class is forced to send more family members out to find jobs to support Krugman's mascot classes.
This is policy is evil and dishonest at best, moreover it is unlikely to work.
I thought Krugman was an economist, but I must have been mistaken. He's just a liberal, and that's that.
Yes, we are always surprised by Krugman's take on world events. So unpredictable.
Right, F**kwad, and when the tissue of lies that was the Clinton economy unraveled, what happened to all those (Mc)jobs? The Clinton Justice Dept. killed the tech boom with their marxist pursuit of Microsoft, and the Clinton Commerce Department overstated (lied about)corporate profit figures anywhere from 10 to 30% in 1999 and 2000, thus giving false and misleading GDP figures for at least those 2 years (Bob Novak column, August 2002). You know, the same thing democrats scream for the scalps of businessmen when they do it.
To Krugman:
Private enterprise creates opportunity. Not govrnment.
Hey Grampa! Isn't this the same dork (Krugman) you were chewing up and spitting out a few months ago?
Well, you see, when you extend unemployment benefits you are giving the unemployed more time to look for work, so they're more likely to find a job. If we extended unemployment benefits for 20 years then the odds are pretty good that during that 20-year period somebody would find a job, so really extending unemployment benefits would increase the number of people employed.
[/sarcasm]
Here we find Paul Krugman trying to scare down the Consumer Confidence and hurt the economy. His obscure "measures" are right out of the Michael Moore School of Economics. Breathtakingly deceptive and fallacious.
We heard this same lament from the libs the last time there was a disappointing jobs report.
Which of course was followed by great jobs gains over the next few months.
With the unrest in Iraq, Saudi Arabia and the record high oil prices we should feel good that things ONLY slowed down during that past month.
I'm so tired of these chicken little Bush haters in the media shrieking "Vietnam" and "Herbert Hoover" at every shred of negative news they can find.
We can only pray that Bush beats these doom and gloom losers in Nov.
Yeah the economy will turn down eventually but why do you think it will be in 2008? It could go down before then and be heading upward by then.
The schmoe pukes once again...who cares?
