Krugman: The Great Degrader

[hfojvt]

45. actually they do

because the first thing Krugman took Bush to task for was, (as I said in my FIRST post in this subthread before, for some reason, another argument got started over whether Bush was a bigger liar than Nixon or LBJ)

"Krugman writes "Bush never admitted that his tax cuts did, in fact, favor the wealthy."

I don't disagree with that, because I spent years hammering at Bush for it, from before he was elected.

BUT

On January 3rd Obama signed a bill making 85% of the Bush tax cuts permanent, a bill called ATRA

Have either Krugman OR Obama ever admitted that ATRA, does, in fact, favor the wealthy? "

Thus Krugman is taking Bush to task for a lie, that Krugman himself has told, and that Obama has told.

And you happily ignore that part of my post to get into an argument that I, personally, find somewhat irrelevant - whether Bush is a bigger liar than Nixon or Reagan. And you find it odd that Bush's supporters make excuses for, or ignore, Bush's lies. Yet you seem, as an Obama and Krugman supporter to be right HERE ignoring Obama and Krugman's lies.
