Keynesian economist and former Enron advisor Paul Krugman's recent entry on his New York Times's blog, "Conscience of a Liberal":
I’m Gonna Haul Out The Next Guy Who Calls Me “Crude” And Punch Him In The Kisser
Go ahead, ladies** and gentlemen, tell old Paul what you think of him.
**As of yet, it is unclear whether Paul Krugman would punch a lady in the mouth.

I'll start with the obvious irony. Paul Krugman is so crude that he threatens physical violence on those who disagree with him.

It's going to have to be a small Next Guy. Watching him debate the tall and blustery Bill O'Reilly, Paul looked wound really tight and ready to spring under the table at any instant.

He's an idiot. In his article he links to another of his articles, "Myths of Austerity". On this same New York Times web page you can also see a link to this article by Michael Powell, "Illinois Stops Paying Its Bills, But Can't Stop Digging Hole".

So, let's see..Krugman's argument = crude theory. Powell's article = crude reality. Which is more credible? How about the one proving the other is an idiot. Krugman, I'd rather be crude than be an idiot...you're both. And try punching me in the mouth.

OK. Paul Krugman is crude. But he'll have to buy his own plane ticket to Utah in order to fulfill his threat. Because of the currently crude stock prices that have resulted from crude Keynesian policies advocated by crude economists like Krugman, I can't afford to buy it for him.

Re: Anyone Care to Dare Paul Krugman?
I'm all of a buck-fifty and haven't been in a fight since sixth grade, so I'd probably fit the bill: Paul Krugman is crude.
Don't know why I'm bothering to comment though - Ted Smith wins!

Better question: Is Paul Krugman even a man?

Not sure, but I bet he fights like a girl! (Ahh, sophomoric humor - God, that felt good!)
