Paul Krugman's "This Week" appearances really don't help his credibility...

Heh. President Obama touted The New York Times’ Paul Krugman as “one of the smartest economic reporters out there‘ not too long ago. That’s not really surprising. It’s no wonder he thinks Krugman is smart; Math is hard! Math, and reality, are also hard for Mr. Krugman.
Twitter users, unlike the president, don’t squee over the absurd Krugman. And the response to his “This Week” appearance this morning was no different.
The oh-so-classy Krugman attempted to slam Sen. DeMint by making a “joke” about DeMint’s new gig at The Heritage Foundation.
.@NYTimesKrugman: Demint's departure from Senate to Heritage is like taking Think out of Think Tank #ThisWeek—

@ThisWeekABC @NYTimeskrugman Krugman has neither think nor tank.—

Zing!
The always ridiculous Krugman then prattled on, relentlessly letting his idiocy show. Bless his heart.
@pete_earle That's because Krugman is a propagandist, not an economist.—

Go Mary !! Keynesian Lunacy is absolutely correct. It's always entertaining to hear Krugman try to defend the indefensible ….—

Wait a min. Krugman says @RepPaulRyan budget is a fake doc? Has he seen Obama's budget? EVERY Sen Dem voted against Pres budget. #ThisWeek—

Krugman is an liberal idiot. Pay up rich guy. Give up 90% of your income if you feel so strongly about taxing the rich.—

Well faced, Mary! Of course, she could have been looking aghast at his tie.
You know what's total nonsense, Krugman? Wearing a thick half Windsor with an Oxford button-down collar.—

@JPFreire Woven ties should only be tied four-in-hand. Any bigger knot is an abomination against civilization and God Himself.—

He lacks common sense and fashion sense. Double fail, Krugman!
