He’s cashing in on Socialist religion just as the globull warming frauds have been doing for the past decade. The media/government/university axis has bilked the taxpayers out of billions at a time when the economy was in the toilet.

Krugman was a guest on Bill Moyers PBS show this past week.
It was a love-in.

I still remember Krugman on ABC This Week (Sunday show) and George Will quoted him directly from when he was preaching that the national debt would kill this country, it was from back when GWB was POTUS, and Krugman actually called citing past quotes from him an ad hominem attack.

Fortunately its documented here when he pulled the same crap on Scarborough .

That guy has nerve for sure.

Liberal politics is about greed. This is where scammers and grifters go to pull money out of a bloated government. It’s one of the reasons they work hard to grow government. They know that the bigger it gets the more power it has to take money and at ate same time it becomes more irresponsible in managing it. Thus, the easier it is to rip off the public.

Krugman is to the science of economics what Typhoid Mary was to the science of sanitation.

I wish we had more than a handful of office seekers who had the gumption to state that truth so clearly and concisely.

You nailed it.

Liberal politics is all about greed.....where tolerant and compassionate pols/scammers/grifters pull money out of a bloated government. It’s why the progs/libs work hard to grow government.....the bigger the govt the more money to extort, and more ways to rip off the public.

Goes to prove....there's always a prog/lib whining about being "for his fellow man," and conniving to make a buck on it.

You have to be some sort of masochist to watch either Krugman or Moyers, nevermind both.

Typical MALE Democrat violation of gender-based income inequality!

Where are the screams of protest from Women’s Groups such as NOW?

Has Mrs. Bill Clinton even read about this violation of gender-based, Income Inequality in the New York Times?

How can such transparent violations of the scared Rules of Obamanation go unanswered by the L.I.E. (Liberal Intelligentsia Elite)?

RE :”You have to be some sort of masochist to watch either Krugman or Moyers, nevermind both.”

The topic was ‘Income inequality’ and what should be done about it ( Never guess Solution : ‘tax the rich MORE to give more stuff to the poor’)

I got a kick out of Moyers asking Krug questions as if it was an real interview, when Moyers is as much of an advocate as Krugman is for re-distribution. It be like Al Sharpton interviewing Obama.

Obama and Dems call raising taxes ‘Asking them to pay more’

These two called it ‘Making them pay more’ (A bit more honest)
