Krugman speaks, nobody listens. The NY Times columnist was scheduled to speak at Netroots 2012 in San Jose on Saturday… but apparently even progressives don’t listen to the guy anymore. The room was empty.

He was introducing Joe Biden.
The room was also empty when Obamie showed up on tape talking to the mob about shared sacrifice or whatever hell he was talking about. Most if not all of the people were gone by the time the tape played. How hilarious!
The room looks kind of like Krugmans brain and barry's suit. Lots of empty space
To quote Simon and Garfunkel, "Listen to the sounds of silence"...
Called off - due to a lack of interest. Sweet. Can we get Krugman to appear on Monday mornings?
Mathematics + economics + Krugman = Netroots stampede to the bar.
A couple of things...
1. Liberals/Progressives/Socialists/Marxist require OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY. Never their own, always from everyone else.
2. Krugman & most leftists who think that Keynes had it right are half assed. The half they leave out is that Keynes NEVER advocated structural debt & deficit. That is all that capital Hill is these days, & they just leave that out while promting his ideas.
3. People like Krugman never understand that what they are doing is wrong, they just believe they have not been allowed to enough of it yet. See the public schools as an example, they always need more money. You give tghem what they want, the reesults stay static, & they say they had a lack of funding. Whatever...
I was trying to recall, is there is any living Nobel prize winner who was not a dumbass libtard?
That is a great question!!!!
Krugman & those who prop him up are the very reasons the MSM is going down the crapper. The number of people who actually give a damn about what he says is fewer everyday. He is part of the old guard, that history will show was in the wrong side of history all the time & people years from now will wonder why anyone thought he was a genius. People like El-Rushbo, Beck, O'Reilly, & Hannity have done a good job showing how overrated Krugman is. The news outlets that back him are going down, the NYTimes, the MSNBC's, & the CNN's of the world are circling the toilet trying to not go down the drain. Like all sh!t, it will go down the drain, & I'll be happy to see the end of kRUGMn & people like him.
The story is a little unfair, a family of crickets was said to be in attendance.
Well, we know there was at least one rodent in the room; But since he was the speaker, he probably did not listen either.
Did somebody say something?
