I gather you've now joined RC in deciding not to discuss Krugman's presumed lying. Fine by me. Again, if you wish to make the charge, I'll be happy to discuss it.
Just to go back to RC's original charge, it was that Krugman was telling fibs. If the charge is simply meant to float out there as a belief, fine, let it go, and no one will take it seriously. But if RC wishes it to be taken seriously, the claim needs to be justified. Not point to some website which lists stuff.
I have no problem, to repeat, with you or RC, using the website as a resource to find "lies", bring one forward and we can discuss it. But to be convincing it would need to carry the full cite, to use your term, of the original column so the text and context could be checked.
It's not up to me to demonstrate he's not lying; it's up to you or RC to demonstrate that he is. Since RC started this one.
Have at it. |
