When good economic news comes out, does Krugman address it? No, like a little child being told something he doesn't want to hear, he puts his fingers in his ears and whines the same ol' song. Krugman, who has yet to win a Nobel Prize in economics, quotes George Akerlof, who has one a Nobel […]
Perhaps the only thing sadder than seeing a blogger do his monthly banging of the tip jar (hint, hint), is seeing a wealthy, egotistical multimillionaire ask for money. That's right, Arianna's campaign is still $235,000 in debt and she wants you to fork over some cash. The woman who hasn't paid income taxes in the […]
Headline: "Jobless Claims Lowest in Eight Months." So, when good economic news hits, what can you be sure of? Well, like death and taxes, New York Times columnist Paul Krugman will ignore it. Krugman comes out today with a defense of name-calling, oddly titled "Lessons in Civility." The column is mainly a hodge-podge of probably […]
I've got a recording of the Democratic Presidential debate replaying right now. The most stupid question/gimmick thus far is from a woman who apparently only speaks Spanish. The woman asked, through a translator, what the candidates proposed to do to help the "Spanish economy." What was apparently was meant was Latino/Hispanic businesses, not what they […]
Actually you can buy anything on Ebay. A good friend sent me this link. Yep, somebody's selling their sample ballot. My friend is lucky, he's got the Governator listed first on his ballot. I"m not so lucky, Ah-nold's listed dead last on mine.
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman demonstrates this fact yet again. In short, Krugman believes that California's economy is bad -- and it's Bush's fault. Then Arnold "The Governator" Schwarzenegger concurs. Krugman says to himself: "I can't be agreeing with a Republican." Then Krugman comes out with a column saying California's economy is doing great. […]
But that doesn't stop the debate. After my note last week about the change in the archiving policy at The New York Times several people pointed out that all of Krugman's columns are available at the "Unofficial Paul Krugman Archive." I was aware of this, but I prefer not to link there because it's not […]
Looks like they're going to charge up to eight more Enron executives for fraud. Sorry, Ken Lay isn't one of them.
Did you know that New York Times columnist Paul Krugman thinks President Bush's economic plan is bunk? Oh, and did I mention that Krugman thinks Bush's economic plan is a disaster? Oh, don't forget that the plan is bad. Krugman is obviously under instructions from the anti-Bush left to push that theme. Practically every column […]
Or maybe it's just because we're out to get him. New York Times columnist Paul Krugman's latest diatribe isn't directed at the Bush administration, but at House Republicans -- certainly a change of pace. While some new Krugman fodder would be welcome, unfortunately today's column is just a replay of the attacks against the old […]
