OK, the bad news is that so in order to watch Paul Krugman, you have to first endure Paul Ryan (R-Pissant) and his smarmy little mug, but don't worry, the good news is he goes away pretty quickly!
Like that time when, during a panel discussion on NAFTA, he plainly explained a simple economic truism, and another panelist erupted "It's remarks like that which explain why people hate economists!"
Clinton's mess was not a major finance-sector meltdown; a few economists, including Krugman, have written some pretty good plain-language explanations of why finance-sector meltdowns tend to create long-term slumps, which have also proven to have excellent predictive power over the last 4-5 years.
As opposed to Richard Haass (and Joe and Ed), who&#039;re wrong until they&#039;re still wrong, and want to make sure <em>every</em> day is a bad day.
Republicans seem pissed that people live longer and health care is expensive. Isn&#039;t living longer a good thing? Look at the effort they put into keeping the unborn alive.
Anyway, the quick solution is to have retirees move back in with their kids. Go for Go-Pee&#039;ers!

Ed Rendell has been too fiscally conservative for me ever since I&#039;ve known of his existence.

Sounds like the Repubs talking about Reagan.
