None of the above? Probably some liberal said that.

That’s how these quizzes always work on FR.

What does it matter WHO said it. It is a correct statement.
He COULD NOT answer the same question Hillary stumbled on, licenses for illegals. I STILL don’t know his answer.

It was all started by Hillary, but blamed on Rush.

I interpreted his fumbling to eventually mean that he is in favor. That cost him, a question he knew would be asked.

“So what’s made Krugman so kranky?”

Nothing. He’s been kranky from birth.

Can’t be a conservative. They get tarred and feathered when they say stuff like that.

Only liberals can be so personally insulting.

For the benefit of those who won’t go to the link, the answer IS none of the above. NT Slimes columnist Paul Krugman said it, because Obama hinted that there might be a problem with the current financing of Social Security.

I dunno who called him a sucker or a fool...probably Hillary or someone in her camp. I call him an idiot and a liar. Not a good combination. He seems to have a hard time putting together a coherent sentence without a script.

This is probably like so many other quotes, which are mouthed by democrats/liberals, then repeated/reported on by Republicans/conservatives, and then reported by the liberal/left-wing media as being originated by the Republican/conservative.

They do it to Rush, and any Repub/con they want to slam.

I remember when demonRAT Dingell from Michigan said the ATF was a bunch of jack-booted-thugs (which they, in fact, WERE). The the NRA picked up on it, and the left-wing media pinned it on the NRA.

That's when the current President's father, a RINO-of-sorts, and never a REAL supporter of the 2nd Amendment, used it as an excuse to resign his "lifetime" membership in the NRA.

We can probably expect the same from any of the current RINO's running for President, if they've just RECENTLY become NRA members in the name of POLITICAL EXPEDIENCY (RINO-romney comes to mind).

Wow... talk about "Swift Boating" or "Taking a play right out of the Republican Handbook"

Paul Krugman has just proven himself to be the * sucker * and the * fool * as the invisible hand of Hillary Clinton scratches his nads!!

The polls must be showing something the Hildabeast is worried about...

Quite comical... But the Democrats ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until a REAL man is taking her on in the General Election 2008.

Obama has the same problem John Kerry suffers from -- he likes the sound of his own voice.

Kerry and Obama both can say nothing in 5,000 words or more.

Obama needs to learn to answer a question in a couple of sentences and then STFU. He doesn't. He must elaborate and go on and on and on until his initial response is muddled in a mire of nonsensical verbiage.

You are so right. His vocabulary consists of ALL the leftard catch words and he strings them together into jumbled sentences which mean nothing. He and those on stage with him last night would be a danger to the health and welfare of this nation.
