Our relentless rightwing propaganda parrot was trying to take Paul Krugman's NY Times column out of context, so deleted, but if you want to see the entire column IN context go here:

Hmmm, doesn't seem to want to do a link here, so this is the link to today's Krugman column: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/18/opinion/krugman-failure-is-good.html?nl=todaysheadlines&emc=tha212

Jim is a two-faced, double-standard teapocrit who is completely lacking of balls and integrity.

Well, that's kind of like fighting fire with fire. He may be those things, and his comments about the people at Occupy Wall Street have been even worse than Rush's, if that's possible. But the name-calling he does, and the baseless accusations stated as "fact" because his rightwing media sources say so (and we all know how "factual" they are!) are intended to get us riled up. The right actually think it's funny when those of us not of that political persuasion react strongly to their all out assault on anyone who doesn't agree with them, unless we react with organizing, then they go ballistic because they're truly threatened by not being able to tweak us with their bear baiting tactics of prodding and poking us with taunts and name calling etc. So, as Joe Hill famously said, "Don't mourn. Organize!" Or as others have passed on to me, don't focus on the problem, because that just fuels the problem, instead, focus on the solution. In this case the solution is coming to the defense of those willing to risk arrest and beatings to practice their Constitutional right to gather peaceably to demonstrate, in this case for less sacrifice laid on the 99% and more on the 1% that continues to benefit from bail outs and tax cuts and political favoritism while the rest of us suffer the consequences of their wealth accumulation at any cost to society.
