KUDOS TO PAUL KRUGMAN

Idly surfing the web, I came upon a remark made by Paul Krugman on a Sunday talk show. Speaking of Newt Gingrich, Kurgman said, "He is a stupid man's idea of what a smart person sounds like." That is the most perfect description I have ever heard of a high profile politician. Credit where credit is due.

Paul Krugman credits this line to Ezra Klein with reference to Dick Armey. See, for example, this post from two days ago:
