As in pot vs. kettle: Paul Krugman calls the Heritage Foundation a “propaganda shop.” This from the man whose paper’s ombudsman once wrote:
Op-Ed columnist Paul Krugman has the disturbing habit of shaping, slicing and selectively citing numbers in a fashion that pleases his acolytes but leaves him open to substantive assaults.
Last week, Krugman wrote of the WSJ edit board, “I mean, they’re not stupid — life would be a lot easier if they were. So they know they’re not telling the truth. But they obviously believe that their dishonesty serves a higher truth[.]” Aspiring psychologists, take note: You are witnessing a textbook case of projection.
