This Week stacks deck against Will ping to Today show list.

Was wondering if NewsBusters was going to post this. When I first tuned in I thought they had maybe added a conservative or a republican to balance things out a little. When I figured out that it was Krugman . . . it was like, WTH!
ABC, you suck.

I saw this. If I didn’t know better, I would think Krugman was on drugs. He had this wild eyed stare and once when Will was talking, he put his face in his hands.

Good write up, Mark.
My impression of Krugman is that he ought to be under a doctor’s care. He just does not look “okay.”

Hmmm, seems we both had pretty much the same reaction to Krugman.

“Frank Reich”?
Any relation to Robert Reich?

Government pressure to ‘extend the American dream to everyone’ + greedy lenders = disaster
I am no economist by any stretch, but it surely seems that economic political correctness is at the root of this mess.

This Week stacks deck against Will ping to Today show list. This is new? It's been going on with the MSM and PBS as long as I can remember. I'll never forget one memorable PBS panel that was mustered to discuss the "new" phenomenon of conservative talk radio back in the early 90s. The unmentioned subject was Rush, of course, and every single radio talker on the panel was full-bore liberal. That's "balance" as the Rats see it. All opposing ideas and speech must be suppressed.

Sorry about that. I’m a Buffalo Bills fan and had Bob confused with Frank Reich, the back-up QB who led perhaps the greatest comeback ever in NFL history, against the Houston Oilers in the 1992 playoffs ;-)

3:1 is nothing new, but 4:1 might be a new record for lopsidedness.

The thing is: George Will still kicks their collective ass.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
lol...too funny. I remember good old Reich.

Well done, Mark!
Krugman needs to go off or try new meds- he’s not well.

3:1 is nothing new, but 4:1 might be a new record for lopsidedness. Heck, I'd sat the odds are still in our favor.

Four against one is still on the short end of an intellectual mismatch if the four are liberals.
PAUL KRUGMAN [pointing at Will]: I don't blame you, but there's a truly reprehensible thing, where [CEO] Angelo Mozilo and Countrywide went out and did this essentially predatory lending to people, giving them complex mortgages they didn't understand, the most complex mortgages to the least sophisticated buyers, and now they're saying "oh! we were forced into doing it because it was affirmative action." This is a really terrible-- GEORGE WILL: What is mysterious, what is mysterious about the phrase "variable rate"?
KRUGMAN: It's, it's --
ROBERT REICH: There was predatory lending.
WILL: Define it.
REICH: The fact of the matter is --
WILL: Define it.

That is shameful, but pretty fair...
4 liberal minds vs. 1 conservative is generally a pretty fair battle.

Is there any wonder that their ratings are in the toilet?
BTW, Krugman has been calling for a recession for seven years now, constantly. How he has any credibility as an economist is beyond me.
