Paul Krugman of the NYT is a respected economist — after all he’s won a Nobel Prize for his work. He paints a grim picture in his latest column, “The Third Depression,” which puts blame mostly on worldwide government policies: We are now, I fear, in the early stages of a third depression. It will [...]

Notable Nobel laureate, economist, and NYT columnist shows that he’s drank plenty of the Obama Kool-Aid… Bush deficits, baaaaad: Krugman, in a November 2004 interview, criticized the “enormous” Bush deficit. “We have a world-class budget deficit,” he said, “not just as in absolute terms, of course — it’s the biggest budget deficit in the history [...]

Rumor has it that New York Gov. Paterson has met with Democrat leaders to discuss him stepping down in anticipation of a NYT “bombshell” story about the governor. Oh, that and the question of his re-electability. Share and Enjoy:

Starting with NYT columnist and Nobel Prize recipient Paul Krugman: In a post on his blog Wednesday night titled “He Wasn’t the One We’ve Been Waiting For,” Krugman eviscerated Obama for, in the columnist’s view, not stepping up during a crucial moment in his presidency. “Progressives are desperately in need of leadership; more specifically, House [...]

Winning that Nobel Prize must’ve gotten to Paul Krugman’s head… Either that or he is interested in a job with the Obama administration. He thinks the $9 trillion deficit over the next decade is quite all right. In fact, he thinks we need more! In fact, we would be better off if governments were willing [...]

According to the NYT, it’s 31-year-old Brian Deese that’s handling the break up of General Motors, turning it into “Government Motors.” And how is he qualified? Let’s just say he can compete with President Obama for who has the thinner resume. From the NYT piece: …Brian Deese, a not-quite graduate of Yale Law School who [...]

The White House with the support of the Democratic Congress so far have bailed out irresponsible homeowners, banks, insurance companies, and automakers. And why stop there? The illegal immigrants deserve their piece of the pie, too! President Obama strikes the iron while it’s hot. With the country still struggling with the recession and jobs are [...]

It’s no wonder that The New York Times is losing subscribers by the boatload and needing to sell its office spaces for cash with such questionable journalistic practices: A lawyer involved with legal action against Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) told a House Judiciary subcommittee on March 19 The New York Times [...]

An NYT op-ed calls it Obama’s “Katrina moment.” Not a good sign at all. As much as author Frank Rich gives readers a good run-down of the events leading to the current circus (with clowns Tim Geithner, Jay Leno, Edward Liddy, Chris Dodd, and President Obama himself), he ultimately shows his liberal side: As the [...]

Voter’s remorse. Is that what David Brooks of the NYT is really saying? Those of us who consider ourselves moderates — moderate-conservative, in my case — are forced to confront the reality that Barack Obama is not who we thought he was. His words are responsible; his character is inspiring. But his actions betray a [...]

Judith Warner at the NYT needs professional help. And journalistic guidance. Share and Enjoy:

The Democrat-owned stimulus package is nothing more than a $900 billion bribe for votes. It’s low on tax cuts where money is put into people’s pockets and high on large government spending. Paul Krugman of the NYT cannot wait: The bottom line, then, is that this is no time to let campaign promises of guaranteed [...]

In the NYT, Roger Cohen thinks the War on Terror has ended with President Obama’s interview with Al Arabiya news: In his first White House televised interview, with the Al Arabiya news network based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, President Obama buried the lead: The war on terror is over. Yes, the with-us-or-against-us global struggle [...]

Citigroup was caught red-handed trying to buy a $50M Dassault Falcon 7X corporate jet and received a call from the White House to cancel that order. After all, it’s not the best way to spend billions of bailout money from the government. Columnists on the left are digging in their heels about this. Maureen Dowd [...]

Maybe columnist Bob Herbert is trying to leave NYT and get a job at the administration: If anything, the stimulus package is not large enough. Less than 24 hours after Mr. Boehner’s televised exercise in obstructionism, the heavy-equipment company Caterpillar announced that it was cutting 20,000 jobs, Sprint Nextel said it was eliminating 8,000, and [...]
