  1. Go Paul go, go Paul go!

  2. It’s a pity I am only hearing every 3-4 sentence… but I suppose it’s no reason to complain since I am geting to do some lip reading. Broadband internet connections are great here in Africa.

  3. Bummer SB. Luckily I can hear it all.

    Krugman says the Politicians have caused a disaster in America. I wonder how much he’s getting paid to tell us what we already know? I hope Paul kicks him into the silver abyss.
  4. Silverbullion   I hate to tell you this but if you want to listen to Krugman you will either Madam Pearl  the Jamaican psychic or Koko the talking gorilla.   Krugman is that DA.  If you like dwarf tossing contests, this debate should put the wind under your kilt

  5. LOL guys, I suppose that pretty much sums it up.

  6. I think I like the cat more. The cat should join Ron Paul’s team. 

  7. Krugman said “an un-managed economy is subject to down turns. The government  and FED must manage it”. What the hell does he think has happened with a managed economy. Ron Said “98% of the dollar value gone since 1913 and Krugman avoids the statement. Krugman also noted the FED didn’t do enough during the Depression according to Friedmen. Ron smacked him with “that’s the problem, the FED either does too much or not enough”. Exactly why we don’t need the FED controlling our economy. They are not capable of making the sound decisions necessary because they will take care of their banks and banker friends instead of the people.

    Another 30 points of GDP (130%) would be excellent for the PM’s. Krugman’s forehead is starting to shine as the beads of sweat are about to pop out (LOL).
    Most politicians will support Romney if he wins the nomination but Ron is and honest man and say he can’t support what is just opposite of his beliefs. Honorable indeed.

    2012!
  9. Krugman is a racket.

  10. 2oz Thanks for the update.

  11. I couldn’t type as fast as they were talking but I believe you’ll get a chance to hear it again SB. One of the sites will post Paul on Paul vid. or commentary.

  12. Yes, I believe so too. I am going to call it a day. I’ve got only one eye open and its closing fast. Check you later guys. It is outside my control now.

  13. I need to watch that, Ron Paul is gonna outshine the host. Lol  I Wonder who is paying for all these Concert Halls Renovations. Great tax dollars at work. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for the arts but they should support themselfs instead of getting Fedral Grants to support them.

    Money talks I guess, Politics as usual.

  14. Hmmm got the after-talk I think (I’m in Euroland and late)

    LOL at (paraphrasing) “it might yield only one percent” (the blond mouthpiece).

    So that’s way below “price inflation” and certainly a lot less than real monetary inflation (which they elaborately offset against real asset deflation and even then they have to manipulate the number they call price inflation).

    Only “investors” who get money for free invest in a 1% yield. Or the very stupid ones. Surely (cough) “investor banks” like this and they hedge both sides while skimming off those free pennies.

    Of course “investing” (saving?) in a fundamentally set-for-prime-time “commodity” (liquidity?) such as silver must be dumb because it’s so volatile…

    Hmmm, volatility is bad while continuous down-slopes are good because they provide certainty. Yessss, right.

    Cheers all,

  15. Ugh… what the heck did Krugman ever do to earn the title of “doctor”?  Pretty sure RP was the only one on that show who should be called “doctor”, and they group him in with a bunch of lowlifes by calling him a “congressman”.  If they’re going to do that they could at least remind everyone that Krugman gets credit for Obama’s wonderful economic policies.

  16. I’m sure Krugman has some letters behind his name, but he just seems like a bit of  a wingnut and he doesn’t blink enough.
