Krugman: Spend Now, Save Later

It's pretty surreal to watch Krugman throw away all his credibility as an economist on account of his partisanship. When the debt and deficits were much smaller, he went into hysterics and got a fixed-rate mortgage because the sky was falling. But that was when evil old Chimpy "Dumbya" McHitlerburton was president. Just like Jesus turned water into wine, Obama has turned bad debt into good, at least in Krugman's eyes.

Here's a couple of funny (and by "funny" I mean "sad" but also "compelling in the way that watching someone's spiraling descent into madness usually is") Krugman vs. Krugman pieces:

Do you have anything to say at the article at hand, rather than the man who wrote it and his past articles?

Have you tried looking at the economy lately?  The kind of stuff he's talking about isn't working, period.

Also you know... the fact that it's obvious even he doesn't really believe what he's saying is about the article.  It totally discredits it.
