Study finds Paul Krugman is the most partisan economist. Krugman was the only economist to "significantly" change his stances for partisan reasons. Krugman has even gone so far as to contradict his own findings to bash Republican politicians. - Brett Barkley, Econ Journal Watch, May 2010

See "The Conscience of a Liberal" for his points on that issue.

'Stimulate the economy' is term symptomatic of someone misunderstanding economics.

Do you have a Nobel Prize and a PhD in economics? Make a real argument, don't just say someone's wrong and make yourself look like an idiot.
