#1 Krugman is a small disguised man who couldn't teach correct economic theory (communism and socialism are so passe) that he had to turn to something only the stupid could write, the stupid could agree with and the stupid could understand - BDS. He has 18 months left on his clock.

#2 Um, no. Krugman is/was a superb economist, particularly with issues concerning world trade.

The problem is, he thought his talent and experience regarding economics translated into thinking great thoughts in just about everything else. Think of him as Alec Baldwin with a PhD in economics and it begins to come together.

#3 I believe he is also a former consultant to Enron.

May I propose that when any MSM columnist writes a piece like this about Al Gore --i.e., a gushing mash note tinged with BDS--that we refer to it as a "Gore-basam."

#4 Krugman, Krugman - oh yeah, the goofy putz with the scraggly beard up on twelve, right?

He's an asshole. What about him?

#5 The asshole writes "And now that Mr. Bush has proved himself utterly the wrong man for the job to be, in fact, the best president Al Qaedas recruiters could have hoped for the symptoms of Gore derangement syndrome have grown even more extreme." on the same day that all media runs the headline story "Al-Qaeda In Iraq Reported Crippled" qualifies ole Krugman as Number One Most Obvious Asshole. Timing IS everything.

#6 It seems that in his delusions, Krugman has become afflicted and become GAL.

Gore Ass Lamprey.

The lunacy of people never ceases to amaze me.

#7 Gore drives the Right insane? Like how, Paul?

I'd counter that Gore himself IS insane. Just ask him a question about anything as a baseline, then ask him something about George W. Bush and watch him positively seethe.

Gore is a laughing stock on the right. If Paul Krugman wants to take the cackling to be a sign of insanity, I guess that's his inexpert opinion.

#8 Trying to wipe out the sting of Bush Derangement Syndrome by making up one of their own?
