You Can Count on Krugman, To Be an Alarmist

Paul Krugman has a column up, this morning, titled “Voting and Counting." Let’s review what old Krugman has to say.

"If the election were held today and the votes were counted fairly, Senator John Kerry would probably win. But the votes won’t be counted fairly, and the disenfranchisement of minority voters may determine the outcome."

Right out the blocks, you can determine that Krugman has swallowed, whole, the Democratic Party line that the upcoming election vote count will be rigged.  I guess Paul and the rest of his liberal, whining, “unbiased” team at The New York Times could count, “fairly.” Just like they report the news “fairly.”

Further in, Krugman adds fuel to his little alarmist fire.

"And votes for Mr. Kerry will be systematically undercounted."

Two for Bush, and one for Kerry.  Three for Bush and one for Kerry.  Is that how the systematic vote count will work, Krugman?

Krugman ends his little alarmist diatribe with this comment.

"And the media must not treat such a suspect win as a validation of skewed reporting that has consistently overstated Mr. Bush’s popular support."

Paul Krugman, media elitist, and the boy who’s crying wolf, while it is still in the cage.

Dealing in Time, Pieces

"All that technology to sell me a fifteen dollar watch! Oh, God, I love the web."

That’s Steve Landsburg, in a post at Marginal Revolution, remarking on his need for an older model Casio watch, because he doesn’t deal well with change.  The post is titled “The World Just Keeps Getting Better."

The Lense-Thirring Effect, Measured

"An experiment using two orbiting satellites has proved that as the Earth turns it drags space and time around itself, like a spinning top in treacle."

“Einstein Is Proved Right Again"

Not bad for a former patent clerk.
