Epic Smackdown
Not that Krugman needs more props, but this kind of Op/ed sure is cathartic. It also helps that he's been, you know, right about a lot of things over the past eight years.
Don't let the door hit you, George. Heckuva job.

Not that he was shy before, but since winning the Nobel Prize it seems as though Krugman has really let loose on Republicans and the White House.
Just Krugman's winning of the Nobel was a huge kick in the pants to the Bushies. I haven't heard that he has received the invitation to the White House that other recipients get. Not that Krugman would hold his breath waiting for it... Gotta love it!

You know I felt the same thing when I read this.
Krugman is saying, fuck you reps, fuck you w.
Morning Joe just hates him. That is when I knew I would like this guy.

Would that be the same Joe who was told that he was so "stunningly superficial that it was embarrassing to hear him talk" by Zbignew himself? That was a riot, especially when his daughter, Mica started moaning in response. She really needs to be told not to moan on camera -- she does it all the time when she disagrees with a speaker.

It does seem like PK has been letting loose with a little more aplomb. I think he would rather hold out for an invite to the WH from BHO anyway, so, all's good, I tink...
