Help Me Help Paul Krugman in Regards to Don Luskin (E-Mail)
Can someone tell me the name of Don Luskin's e-mail at his poorandstupid.com site? I'm on an engineering computer and it won't let me have it.

He made a blatant error today when he said that Krugman didn't check his facts. Krugman made a comment about Churchill saying that the Marshall Plan was the "most sordid...," and while Luskin says that this was referring to the Lend-Lease Act, the sites that I have checked say he was referring to the Marshall Plan.

2. Thanks so much
Notice how much of a tool Luskin is. He didn't even try to refute what Krugman said.

4. No, you should point that out
There's no reason for you not to do so.

Anyway, I sent Luskin an e-mail. I won't be surprised if he doesn't respond.

About 4 years ago, he was my debating chew toy on Jude Wanniski's economics forums.

No kidding.

I'm astounded anyone listens to him without bursting into laughter on the spot.

He single-handedly turned me against pro-Microsoft libertarians. And his "only the state can use Force" thing.. bleh.

Jerk.

On edit: I'm confident Krugman knows who this guy is, or can easily find out. He's had more than a few run-ins with Jude Wanniski in the past, of course. Luskin is little more than an apprentice.
