Krugman Gets The Vapours
By Mitch Berg
What happens when John Hinderaker meets Paul Krugman?
Lots of pieces of Krugman flying about the place.
Er, wait. Krugman will probably call that an incitement to violence, too.
Hinderaker eviscerates Paul Krugman’s “Violent Republicans” column. You need to read it, if you’re a Republican who’s shaking his/her head at the constant slander, and especially if you’re a Democrat who still believes Krugman is anything but a Lori Sturdevant-style shill for the Democrats.
Once upon a time, as I eviscerated Krugman’s idiotic “Red States Are Welfare Queens” column (wherein he noted, devoid of context, that “red” states take in more “federal money” than “blue” states), I said that I’d love to debate Krugman on the subject. Leftyblogger Charlie Quimby sniffed – partaking, I suspect, in the liberal delusion that credentials equal merit – that he’d “pay money” to watch a debate between Krugman and I.
On that topic? I’d do it. And mop the floor with him.
