Leftwinger Cites "Nobel Prize-Winning Economist" Paul Krugman at Town Hall...

Seems the Nobel Prize just isn't as prestigious as it once was, back in the days when only the true greats like Yassar Arafat and Al Gore were awarded the medal.

Eh, never mind.

The peace prize and the prize are two, totally different things. Apparently it would seem that the prize itself, which is in a certain field, is also being as politicized as the "peace prize". Krugman is a Keynesian idiot.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

And apparently, he's having difficulty keeping that little fact from getting out.  :popcorn:

I would tend to be more charitable and say there proabably is an envelope in which Keynesian economics works, but we are far outside it given our current debt and obligation structure.

However, Krugman is an idiot for not being able to conceive of this possibility.  It's like he's CEO of a buggy-whip factory in 1926, and he thinks the way to out-compete Henry Ford is to make more buggy-whips, faster.
