America's Choice

I guess not that many people are familier with the name Paul Krugman. He has just won the Nobel Prize for Economics. That would tend to suggest that he knows what he's talking about.

However according to Joe "let's be disagreeable for the sake of it" Scarborough. Krugman's column in the New York Times was nothing more than a 'left-wing rant' at failed Republican economic policies. Krugman's 'crime' was suggesting that the economic mess was created by the "Greed is Good" mentality that has been evident in Wall Street and of course for which we are now all suffering.

This is not just some dismissive statement said by the man on the street Joe is it ? This is fact. Not everything said outside you margin's of agreement is a 'left wing attack/rant/opinion', it's fact. Again I question the wisdom of MSNBC leaving this man on the air, his opinions have been buried more time the Fido's favourite bone, yet everyday he is there just wittering on about how screwed up the country now is because Barack Obama is now the top man.

Look around you Joe, the country was screwed up long before Barack Obama came along, so why not let go of your posturing, pouting, whining and being so gripped with anger everytime someone does not say exactly what you want. We can all shout or raise our voice to make our point but please if your going to do it, make sure what comes out is going to be something intelligent and meaningful.
