Krugman is like Dan Rather minus the credibility.
Insanity is trying the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
Will the Leftists finally give up on Keynesian economics that has driven the country into the ditch every time it’s been tried? I doubt it.
He doesn't care!
People are judging this guy based on how a normal politician behaves. They usually want to get reelected.
Obarry wants to destroy America.
I think at this point he knows he won't be reelected, so he's just out to do as much damage as he can before he's shown the door.
The kenyan imposter has not lost Krugman. Krugman is simply trying to give his little Marxist buddy a hand. Progressives don’t ever give in. Nor do they change their stripes.
If you’ve lost Krugman, you’ve lost the Upper East Side.
How droll.
Gee, I don't know Krugman, maybe because you spineless, terrorist loving pieces of @#$% have carried his water for so long?
In addition to evading responsibility of course. That goes without saying.
The recession was bad enough before Obama's retrograde policies...but now we not only have a bad economy, we have a mountain of NEW debt.
If this is a recovery what the hell does a relapse feel like?
I agree. If anything, Krugman is seeing the writing on the wall and willing Obama to make some progress here, so he can then continue destroying the country the way Krugman wants him to.
So officials could, with considerable justification, place the onus for the non-recovery on Republican obstructionism. But theyve chosen, instead, to draw smiley faces on a grim picture, convincing nobody. And the likely result in November big gains for the obstructionists will paralyze policy for years to come.
Krugman is just playing "Papa" with Obama and admonishing him a bit. But he still loves the kid.
Hey, the baby boomer libs have portfolios too.
Krugman, like every NYT’s Ivy Leaguer, won’t let objective data get in the way of their beliefs. You are dealing with a religion, not a political party. Do you think Crusaders had any problems with looting, raping, and murdering when they were told they doing so with Christ’s blessing? Its the same thing here.
But Krugman’s complaints are that Obama hasn’t taxed and spent ENOUGH! He hasn’t lost Krugman, because Krugman wants him to do exactly what he’s been doing but X 10.
As best I recall Krugman’s prior stances he has been 100% consistent. Spend more. For months he has exasperatedly been sniping at Obama’s failure of nerve and leadership in refusing to follow Krugman’s advice to go all in.
Case in point...I was chatting with a retired high school teacher last week and I asked him what he thought would be the most effective stimulus program for this economy. He said any money spent by the government should be invested in the most productive elements of the economy. When asked how that might be accomplished he said (to paraphrase) "I guess you could just refund capital to those who paid the most taxes."
if Obama’s primary concern at this point is what Krugman thinks, we are in far, far worse trouble than even I think we are
By Gud! Watson, I think you’ve got it...
