Thank you Mr. Richmond for exposing yet another lie. As our nation drives off the cliff of socialism its guys like Krugman who are providing the fuel. Keep up the great work at FEE.

Now to be fair, Al Gore and the IPCC received the Nobel “Peace Prize”, not one of the several Nobel prizes for any actual science, nor even the Nobel “Prize in Literature” for writing some sort of plausible fiction.The 2007 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Al Gore and the IPCC for “their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change”Now, it might not seem immediately obvious what this has to do with promoting peace. But please consider the that logical end goal of environmentalism is to eliminate everything artificial (made by man). And that this is a goal which can only really be accomplished by eliminating all human beings.Furthering the environmentalist cause, by stirring up irrational fears which open the door for greater government restrictions of economic freedoms, is another step in the direction of a world in which we (all of us) shall “Rest In Peace.”So it actually makes sense.

The Nobel Prize once had value. We have gone from a prize worthy of Milton Friedman to Paul Krugman and Al Gore winning the prize. It means less than nothing if Al Gore and his silly movie are worthy.

If there is one thing we can count on twice a week, it is a series of howlers from Paul Krugman. The man is shameless, a true charlatan. Great comments on your part, Sheldon!

When you’re a big government shill, as Krugman is, no amount of lying and deception is considered beyond the pale. The man is embarrassing. And to think this snake oil salesman won the Nobel Prize! Astonishing.

Good point, but does anyone actually believe Krugman isn’t a chronic liar? (Political hacks either don’t care if they have to “fudge” the truth a little or they take refuge in the “doing it for the greater good” rationale.)
