>> It's because Krugman thinks Obama isn't doing enough to spend like a drunken liberal and "stimulate" the economy out of the doldrums.

Exactly. Krugman and Obama think alike -- but Krugman is free to express his views without political consideration. Obama has to continue to "look" moderate to the non-thinking public while a non-politician like Krugman has no such restriction.

Wow, whodathunkit? A liberal in the media getting angry at Obama because he isn't liberal enough? Meanwhile, most of the country is afraid the government is doing too much to try and rescue the economy.

Wow...that's an excellent defense of Obama's policies...from your keyboard to the thread. Nothing sells liberalism like Republicans of late by the way...we love you guys. Worth every penny we don't spend advancing our cause.

On point, several of krugman's attacks have had to do with financial crisis and geithner's approach, where liberal/conservative is a secondary consideration. The liberal media skewered clinton and gore...yours is a tired, silly argument...i would have as much a claim of right wing media biased programming as you would. Have you watched Morning Joe ob MSNBC? Have you tried watching CNBC all day long?

Consumer confidence is improving in the country. I take that as a bullish take on Obama's performance so far.
