Holy Hell. Clinton says "Read Krauthammer. He's Brilliant"

11. Way. He said that Krauthammer hit the nail on the head

about why these are much more beneficial for the middle class than the rich. Krauthammer, of course, is known for his deep and abiding love of the working class.

15. You're taking the quote out of context completely. Krauthammer OPPOSES the deal. Clinton is saying

read Krauthammer so you can come away with the opposite conclusion that Krauthammer does about the deal. Here is one thing Krauthammer said:

"At great cost that will have to be paid after this newest free lunch, the package will add as much as 1 percent to GDP and lower the unemployment rate by about 1.5 percentage points. That could easily be the difference between victory and defeat in 2012."

Hear that? He's opposed to the package because it will ADD to GDP growth and LOWER unemployment, because that would help Obama win re-election.

17. Frankly, I do not think that Krauthammer has any idea what the hell he is talking about..either way.

Edited on Fri Dec-10-10 05:16 PM by BrklynLiberal

Economist on NPR this AM...showed in detail how ignorant Krauthammer is...He is not an economist, and his conclusions are not worth the paper on which they may be written.

18. Even Paul Krugman says that the package will lower unemployment by .55-.95%.

Edited on Fri Dec-10-10 05:23 PM by BzaDem

That's 825k-1.4 million jobs.

19. No no no no no

Are you fucking serious? Bill Clinton said that Charles Krauthammer is brilliant? If that's true I have lost whatever little respect I had left for the guy. Thats insanity, not only is Krauthammer wrong about EVERYTHING, hes a fucking dumbass who can barely explain his positions.
