"...an utterly corrupt new religion called environmentalism..."
If the history of this planet's climate over millions of years is any guide, we are about to enter a new ice age.

WHO IS THE SMARTEST DUMB DEMOCRAT?
By Ted Baiamonte Comments: bje1000@aol.com (08/30/05)
Paul Krugman, Ph.D. is a distinguished professor of economics at Princeton University and a regular op-ed writer for The New York Times. By any standard he occupies the most intellectual territory within The Democratic Party. So how does one fare with an IQ in the genius range, and an emotional attachment to the Democratic Party? Answer: one comes off as dumber than a normal Democrat in direct proportion to one’s higher IQ.
While his factual and technical mistakes are legend, and seem to take up 100’s of websites devoted to nothing else, his more general conceptual mistakes seem more telling to me. Here are two of his best ones: 1) he said, recently, in the end, the Internet would be no more important than the fax machine, and, 2) after 9/11, he said, in the end Enron would be more important than 9/11.
If you are tempted to think his confusion is random, think again. This is an organized confusion dictated by the Democratic half of his brain. Democrats hate the relatively capitalistic business community, much as Marx did, and much for the same reasons. They have always wanted to control business, regulate it, tax it, and have never said how far short of socialism they would stop. Throughout 200 years of American History they have always been for more gov’t control of business, and everything else for that matter, while the Republicans, since Jefferson, have been for freedom.
In keeping with his Marxist spirit Krugman did not like the Internet because it seemed to represent yet another capitalistic revolution that was causing yet another revolution in human progress. To him the gov’t was supposed to be in control because, in theory, it didn’t have profit as a motive, but rather genuine altruism. In point of fact gov’t altruism has usually amounted to genocide, while capitalism, almost by definition, has resulted in the masses buying what they alone decided improved their standard of living. So, it the govt wasn’t in control, then the Internet could not be important, at least not much more important than the fax machine. Dumb yes, but a necessary manifestion of Democratic thinking.
Of course, Krugman loved Enron more than any human being on earth. It represented nothing short of deliverance for him. He wrote dozens of columns on it, all of which generally proclaimed: “this is exactly what Marx said would happen, you don’t have my IQ so you don’t see it yet, this is essentially what is happening in all greedy American corporations, a Democratic gov’t need to take control and save you.” In his blind allegiance, Krugman forgot to notice that Americans were managing to live far better than, for example, socialist Cubans, and, incidentally, the remainder of the world, despite the imagined inherent evils of capitalism.
When 9/11 came along he hated it because it interrupted the protracted lesson on Enronomics he was giving us. How would he ever teach us the inherent evil of Republican capitalism if we went off to fight a silly war on terrorism? Hence, he was forced by his insane ideology to predict for us that 9/11 would be relatively unimportant compared to Enron. The possibility of few more 9/11s could not be allowed to interfere with our communist economics lesson.
Krugman collected all his columns from the period in a book called “The Great Unraveling.” What was unraveling was the American economy and culture, he claimed. Initially it was easy to attack Bush. He had inherited a recession that officially started during the Clinton Administration, a burst Internet/tech bubble, 9/11, and 2 wars (at least one of which was unavoidable). The economy sank and Krugman was there to relentlessly blame it all on Bush. In the end the economy recovered under Bush on time and about as well as it had from previous recessions despite the extraordinary and historic shocks that caused it. Krugman’s “great unraveling” was never taking place, the opposite was.
Even so, Krugman has no idea when to shut up. He remains Alan Greenspan’s harshest critic despite Greenspan being, by far, the most revered figure in the entire history of monetary policy. His concomitant illusion is that the doomed economic recovery is based on borrowed foreign money that Americans are using to support a housing bubble that will shortly burst; thus finally exposing the underlying evil in our capitalist, American economy. Now that Krugman has predicted it, will can all hold our breaths until this new unraveling takes place-right?
Krugman does not seem to catch on to the fact that predicting the future under the best of circumstances is difficult, but that with a Ph.D. from MIT, a genius IQ, a column in the Times, and a huge Democratic bias, he is much like a drunk predicting where his chair is before trying to sit down on it. Or, perhaps what he doesn’t realize is that his common Democratic passion against American freedom and capitalism should not be in proportion to his uncommonly high technical IQ. After all, all Democrats seem to hate freedom with a similar passion, even with average IQ’s.

The United States Is Being Overthrown By Our Politicians - "A silent but all-reaching coup is taking place within the
United States. This coup is not being directed by bomb-laden Muslim terrorists, nor will it ever be covered by the mainstream media.
The seditious act is being carried out by our very own elected officials, with President Bush leading the insurrection."
"The FDA has conveniently used the excuse of looking out for consumer safety to increase their perverse regulatory power,
undermine free speech, disrupt commerce, and generally get in the way of helping people improve their health. The "half-truth" of
the safety issue is used as a ploy to reduce the rights of Americans, one freedom at a time. Once again, the FDA is seeking more
police power to intimidate supplement companies. This is one step in an overall FDA master plan to eliminate therapeutic nutritional
supplements from the free market. Those who lose are the American public." The FDA - A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
