i believe that Paul Krugman just told joetheinternkiller, in VERY polite terms...

[islandmkl]

"You are basically a yahoo redneck idiot."

on edit: joe was espousing the rightwing reagan-had-all-the-answers economy bullshit...krugman shot down joe at every single point...

the only reason joe was on the attack was because Krugman had already disposed of pat b....

brains trumps bullshit every time....Krugman is getting so used to these shows that he knows how to wait out the interruptions...

[elleng]

1. WHERE was this?

Krugman's had to do that sort of thing a lot recently!

[whathehell]

4. Morning Joe...I was about to tear my hair out, monitoring the Cable Channels

until Krugman came on...He all but laughed in that asshole's face. C-Span -- after having Newt Gingrich on, now has someone on from the Center for the American Progress...The M$M throws us a few crumbs, but it's not enough....

Bring back the Fairness Doctrine!

[ShortnFiery]

2. I prefer Mika's dad's approach - NOT SO SUBTLE - verbal ass kicking.

:evilgrin:

[islandmkl]

5. i love when brez is on...he allows no 'mistaken' history to be espoused for even a moment...

but i am appreciating krugman's scalpel...he has learned to slice and dice these guys to establish his points...

[Rockholm]

8. Who is her reporter husband she mentioned today?

In my 3 minutes of watching the show today.

[elleng]

10. with smirks!

[Atman]

3. Krugman eviscerated Redneck Joe

That was a thing of beauty!

[islandmkl]

7. now joe, when introducing matthews, says 'krugman was just on...

attempting to rewrite economic history.."...

no, joe, everybody watching saw what happened, heard what was said, and you couldn't hold your ass tight enough when krugman hit you WITH THE FACTS about the economies of the 80's and 90's and what each administration did to help or HURT the economy...

[elleng]

11. He said that to tweety?

who, I assume, didn't challenge him.

Well, no cable here; will look at rachel tonite!

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

16. Joe has his ass handed to him Zbig and Krugman as a buffoon in both foreign affairs and economy

which he is. He is that most horrible of creatures - someone who pretends to know a lot more than he does and has way more self-confidence than he should have(based on the "self" part). I hate hate hate than this know-nothing except for "conservative" Republican talking points and Reagan worship has the media slot he does. TV morning drive time is prime real estate.

[Ganja Ninja]

6. How stupid do you have to be to try and debate a Nobel Prize winner?

:shrug:

[islandmkl]

9. well...it was joe, so we all know the answer...

can you imagine what it must be like if you think joe is intellectual...???

[canadianbeaver]

12. They just don't get it.......

LowJoe just can't grasp that his great Reagen wasn't that great......unbelievable....

[Subdivisions]

13. It was indeed a thing of beauty. n/t

[LynneSin]

14. How many Nobel Prizes for Economics has the Intern Killer or anyone on Morning Joe have won so far?

Yeah that's what I thought

Krugman - he's got one!

:woohoo:

[kentuck]

15. The Big Lie.

Not good for our country if we continue to let them spread this myth.

[elizfeelinggreat]

17. Krugman is really great

and you're right, he's doing so much better on the shows. He looks more relaxed and confident.

[surrealAmerican]

18. He can't help but win. He has the facts on his side.

Even if joe was as clever as he is, Krugman would still win.

[4 t 4]

19. "joetheinternkiller"

Spot on! Bwahahahahhahah
