Krugman is very very sad. The man is a pathetic liar. Obama should listen to him.

Ralph Nader got his answer, didn’t he?

This will certainly draw plenty of the Conservative Red Arrow of Death, but anyone else think maybe Pelosi was dragging Obama left more so than he’s being “dragged” right now? Above all else, dude has proven himself to be a pragmatist, and the reality of the situation is that the Pelosi-wing (not Reid, they’re actually quite different ideologically) of the Dem party doesn’t have broad enough support for most of their policies. Obama knows this.

This doesn’t include HCR, by the way, since the HCR that was ultimately passed was quite moderate. But it’s way too complex to explain the intricacies of our healthcare system to the general public, so scare tactics were quite effective.

I disagree with Krugman. President Obama was always a centrist, in some ways even more conservative than W.

Sure did, but some of us already knew the answer on election night.

Krugman sounds like a college professor talking about the evils of corporations. They need to be constantly reminded that tax money from corporate payrolls pay their salary. It will cost you a grade point when you say that.

Then you misunderstand Krugman. And, he is terribly bright. I think you’d find that Krugman is more concerned with what amounts to the system of corporate welfare in the US than he is anything else.

Hussein has NOT moved to the center. What “centerist” act has he performed? Krugman and the rest of the extremist ant-American Left are being deployed to make Hussein seem centerist by comparison. It’s just a ploy to try and regain some support from the independents necessary for his reelection. It’s fake.

Perhaps now Krugman can focus on his upcoming role in the Broadway production of Three Billy Goats Gruff. I hear they’re designing the bridge specifically for him.

Sorry Paul, BHO saw the results of 11/02/2010 and moved to the center, but you still live in the lib fantasy world ,where Americans want unlimited spending by the Govt. to create the lib utopia of a true welfare state.

Pablo said:

True, but the repubs won a major, major victory on keeping the tax rates frozen. Remember that when this topic first came up , the Dims said that they would let ALL current tax rates expire. Then they decided to play their normal class warfare game by then saying that the middle class rates would stay the same but the upper tax rate would return to its previous rate.

The Repubs called Barry’s bluff and made him agree to extend the rates for ALL Americans. Have the libs learned anything from this?

Pelosi was saying on CBS NEWS that the HC reform bill ” has always been open for modification.”

LOL

Without the center, Obama can’t possibly get reelected. When he starts bashing corporations, the centrists start thinking that is one spooky dude.

i just burned this prick in effigy the other day. Agree with the asshole on GE, So did anyone call him out on the BS he spewed on the shooting? Someone should have just punched him.

Krugman is the one who has gotten ‘kinda sad’. He was denied a position in the administration and his bitterness about that has been driving him these last two years.

WHATTTTT??????

Bring Jeffrey Immelt GE’s CEO sinalize that BO is going to the center??
That’s a bullshit, and you all ,Mediate’s staff know it!

I don’t believe how leftists can appropriate conservative’s talking points and dispute with the same words against Inmelt. O’Reilly has been lashing Inmelt, GEs CEOs since I’ve been watching him. 3 Years ago.

What’s ‘Kinda Sad’ is communist Lib media hack Krugman (who won a Nobel given to him from other back-slapping Libs). ‘One-Note’ Paul is incensed because his never-ending plea for Keynesian economics has bludgeoned him in the face. All we needed for Libs to drip with rabies was unfettered Lib control for enough time to prove that their ‘utopia’ was no utopia at all. We saw the failure of Liberalism, and Krugman sees it, too. He obviously beats his wife (if he has one) and his children (if he has them). I keep waiting for this haughty elite to jump from a tall Manhattan building. Alas…I’m still waiting.

When has Krugman ever been right about anything? I don’t even think he believes the crap that flows so easily from his rectum……….err………….lips. If you watch him speak, his eyes dart from side to side as if he’s expecting someone to smack him for being so absurd.

“However, liberal thorn in Obama’s side, Paul Krugman found Obama’s efforts to be more centrist “kinda sad.””

It is kinda sad for the far left. It will also be sad for the far right when Obama gets re-elected.

But for moderates and independents it is “kinda happy”. :)

Interesting James. I didn’t know that.
But most of us who get rejection don’t become bitter, attention seeking loudmouths like Krugman. Have you ever seen an intellligent man be more pathetic?

The only people deeming Kruggie ‘right about anything’ are his like-minded, backslapping Lib pals. He lives in a haughty, elite world and it is crumbling. It’s awesome to watch Libs like this get enraged instead of gorging themselves on caviar and backslapping themselves on how fantastic they’ve made everything. Everything is in ruin thanks to Libs; they know it, too.

Palin is done. She overly exposed herself. She would of done better if she laid low for a while, but when her own state is against you you don’t have a chance. I didn’t think she was going to run in the first place because she doesn’t like to govern. I think she is going to run around the country cheerleading for the nominee.

i think it’s best that obama includes the repubs so when the country moves to pre-bush level unemployment he can say ‘yes, we worked together’ and it will make them fell good about themselves thus continuing our climb out of bushdom.

Back on topic, Obama is not a liberal. Anyone who says that doesn’t know what present day liberalism is. He is VERY hawkish on foreign policy especially and his views on state secrets and the powers of the executive are right on par with George W. Bush. Forget about what he says, look at what he has done or is doing while in office. His economy profile may be viewed as liberal (but also a corporatist) and everything else he’s your run of the mill progressive democrat. Not a doctrinnaire as such but a pragmatist. He can bend a little if the other side does. A true liberal would not do 50% of what Obama has done as far as policy is concerned.

Kruggie is a rather sad person. He keeps banging out columns and appearing on TV, essentially saying nonsensical things. He banged out yet another one today.

Mr. Tweed Jacket & Pipe just is utterly disconnected from the evidence all around him.

Regarding Krugman’s Nobel Prize… Krugman actually did some good work in the 1980s and early 1990s, and that is what he was rewarded for. His theories at that time were not very complicated, but they seemed to explain commonly observed phenomena.

I do not know when Krugman lost his sanity. Perhaps it was at the time of the Bush-Gore campaign, when many other Democrats went round the bend. He’s crazy enough now that, if the 2012 GOP nominee praises the work Krugman did to win the Nobel Prize, Krugman would attack the nominee by repudiating his own ideas.

Paul Krugman is a Keynesian as far as I know and that is the nub of his problem.
