Paul Krugman argues that the Republican Party has for years cynically manipulated conservative voters while actually doing very little to further the conservative political agenda. But now, after decades of being asked to cooperate with self-styled "centrists" while seeing the United States drift ever-further away from its cultural roots and free market individualism, the conservative...

I would like to express my condolences to the freinds and family of Paul Krugman. It seems the Nobel Prize winning economist has finally lost touch with reality, and is now officially certifiable. Mr. Krugman has fallen victim to a mental disorder common among those who make a living via political posturing, Psychological [...]

Isn’t that Paul Krugman clever? The title of his latest op-ed (”Paranoia Strikes Deep”) quotes a line, presumably deliberately, from a 1960s protest song many consider one of the opening shots in the 1960s protest movement. Before he got cute with his title, Krugman should have gone to the song’s full lyrics, as they only serve [...]

Last Thursday there was a rally outside the U.S. Capitol to protest pending health care legislation, featuring the kinds of things we've grown accustomed to, including large signs showing piles of bodies at Dachau with the caption "National Socialist Healthcare." It was grotesque -- and it was also ominous. For what we may be seeing is America starting to be Californiafied. More on Paul...

I don't speak moonbat so maybe someone can help decipher this lunatic screed for me. Deranged NY Times hack Paul Krugman today bemoans the fact conservatives are rising up and influencing the GOP. Naturally, he goes on whining about the evil influence of Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck, a lazy man's rehash of White House talking points that can be found pretty much anywhere...

During Japan's seemingly never-ending recession/semi-recession starting in the early 1990s, Paul Krugman repeatedly argued and lectured that Japan should use monetary policy to stimulate its economy. In 1998 he wrote a notable paper arguing that monetary policy would work in spite of 0% short-term interest rates (a "liquidity trap"), and criticizing Japan's wasteful government-spending...

Another great read by Paul Krugman . Obama's cautious approach to the economic crisis may lead the way for Democratic losses in 2010. Clearly the situation is better than it was a year ago though as we saw on Friday, employment is still lagging with limited chances of recovery before the mid term elections. Administration officials would presumably argue that they were constrained by...

Remember those Republican boasts that they would turn health care into President Barack Obama's Waterloo? Well, exit polls suggest that to the extent that health care was an issue in Tuesday's elections, it worked in Democrats' favor. But while health care won't be Obama's Waterloo, economic policy is starting to look like his Anzio. True, the elections weren't a referendum on Obama. Most voters focused...
