While I agree with Krugman most of the time, I do have to LOL at how hard he's pushing OWS as Krugman's Army.

Krugman is a dolt.  Put him out to pasture.

The OWS movement is everything the liberal left wished the Tea Party actually was.  I bunch of bigoted, ignorant, misfits, trashing public parks and getting arrested.  Their message is beyond incoherent, not one of them can actually articulate why they're there or what the stand for.  And the demands  :lol: :lol:.  I do like how they've become the mouthpiece of the liberal left.  How embarrassing for the dems.

Well FSD has convinced me. His deep analysis of Krugman's position, coupled with his outstanding credentials has decreased the ranks of Krugman's Army by 1.

It's flattering that you've given up arguing with me.  One too many asshats I suppose.

Sorry you like Krugman.

But what you described was clearly not how OWS is perceived by the conservative right?   :dunno:

FWIW I'd say the Tea Party has some legitimate concerns, but has it's share of retards and racists. OWS has some legitimate concerns, but has it's share of retards and communists.

And one of those has its own cable network to help with the "grassroots" effort.

Funny, a couple conservative people I know were talking up the OWS thingie the other day. When did it become exclusively a liberal movement? (HINT: It hasn't, but the media says it is)

I was struggling to define the left/right nature of the movement (mainly because its so all over the place with its incoherent message) until I read the list of people's houses they were marching on and found out it was being funded by "Big Union".  Then I saw some footage of the people (all ugly and/or fat), heard about the antisemitism and was able to draw my conclusion
