Nobel Laureate & Cat Lover - Paul Krugman - "Obama is not a socialist"
Last night on PBS, Charlie Rose asked Nobel Laureate if Obama is a socialist. Paul Krugman said "No, Obama is not a socialist." I tried to find a transcript but one is not yet available. The show was excellent and Krugman talked like Obama is already the president, saying what he feels Obama will propose economically for the future of the country. The word McCain never came up... (that I recall anyway.)

From the other side: Bill O calls Krugman "That NYTimes socialist." I am surprised Bill doesn't call Krugman some hateful names used for Jews...

so I guess we can't really trust the man who won the Nobel Prize this year in economics. Bill O Dumbass knows the world of economics as well as everything else

Here is Krugman with his commie pinko cat:

8. Apparently a hamburger lover as well!
I liked the joke story his colleagues put out, that after winning the Nobel Prize he was "strutting around like Jay-Z."

6. since PBS only broadcasts communist propaganda
why should i believe anything said there by a man who writes for the well-known communist, anti-american newspaper the NYT, a man who's been awarded a prize for hating america by the socialist state of Sweden?

i don't need no "information"!

:sarcasm: feels so good.
