ABC’s This Week: Europe Not Socialist Enough and Needs to Spend More, ‘Centrist Moderate’ Obama v ‘Irrational’ Tea Party

Europe isn’t socialist enough for ABC’s Christiane Amanpour, who pushed French’s finance minister about how “prominent” economists are urging Europe to abandon “austerity” since “it needs more stimulus to provide more growth,” and later during the This Week roundtable, New York Times columnist Paul Krugman ridiculed Tea Party candidates as “irrational” and “seriously strange” before he insisted that irrationality is demonstrated by their inability to recognize Barack Obama is a “centrist moderate President.”

If Obama is a “centrist moderate”, I’d REALLY hate to see her idea of what’s FAR LEFT!  I guess she thinks Hugo Chavez is a centrist too?

And what about Paul Krugman?

There are some seriously strange people running, thanks to the Tea Party….It’s not just suspicion of government. We have people out there believing that this basically centrist moderate President we have is a socialist bringing Sharia law to America. None of that is rational.

Ok, let me get this straight. People, who advocate for smaller government, a return to the U.S. Constitutional limits of government, are strange? Really? Well, Mr Krugman, those of us who advocate for the Constitution think YOU, and your ilk, are strange. Why would anyone, with an ounce of common sense want to destroy the last great hope of the world? Why would we want to, voluntarily, give up our liberties, granted by God Himself? No sir, if anyone is strange, it’s people like YOU!

Good stuff from NewsBusters, here and here.

    Krugman has always had a problem with the fact that other people do not agree with his ideas/beliefs about what is ‘rational or ‘probable”.

    He sets himself and other elitists as the supreme judges of  what should be thought and believed by the rest of the citizens of this country.

    He and Obama are both self-centered, self-loving, narcisstic asses!!!

    I’ve learned, in their world, there is no logic or rational thinking.  Ya put it quite well!  IMHO, he can take his self centered crap, and shove it where the sun don’t shine.  If he needs help, I’ve no doubt there are many who will offer directions.  Heh.
