- The Liberal Downgrade Mythology



You can almost understand why Democrat politicians believe that politics should always trump reality. Especially in those moments like this one where reality says that they've failed... again. But if you're a normal citizen instead of a politician, and you're the kind of person who looks to someone like Tim Geithner for 'the truth' about America's fiscal solvency, then you have bigger problems than I can solve.

This is the core political debate in our country. the Tea Party believes reality should always trump politics, liberals believe politics should always trump reality, and 'independents' believe they'll have another beer and let the 'extremists' duke it out, then go along with the winners.

Then you come to someone like Krugman. I won't add to his embarrassment by linking his piece, but it's a low point in Democrat water carrying, even for him.

What a sad and tragic figure this man has become.
