Reply #32: When has Krugman been unfairminded in his critcism? [View All]

[ThatPoetGuy]

Ever?

He wrote about universal health care before Obama ever announced his plan. He has been consistent on this issue, for years, before Obama announced his non-mandatory plan.

Years ago, Krugman wrote that he thinks Republicans follow a false ideology and they need to be fought, not compromised with. He has been consistent on that issue, for years.

On each and every issue where Krugman has criticized Obama, he has represented his core principles fairly and accurately. It's sickening to see people attacking him for this.

Argue with his principles if you will, but don't be so swift to attack the man ad hominem. Krugman is not a right-wing shill, he never was, and he never will be. He's not a shill for Hillary either. He has been standing up for his principles in his criticism of Obama, just as he was standing up for his principles when he criticized the Iraq war and tax cuts for the wealthy.
