And Krugman has posted several new tweets with more reasons why we should not be impressed with Speaker Ryan.

[BootinUp]

1. Krugman is a smart cookie. And he certainly has pegged the puke party. nt

[spooky3]

4. Yes, he has - from the beginning.

And he does an excellent job explaining why, and citing evidence.

[BootinUp]

5. He doesn't do guesses really, he goes to the evidence.

yep.

2. What I like about Ryan is that he failed

to destroy the safety net. He put cuts in it but he did not destroy it.

The plan was to cut income then complain we can’t afford domestic spending.

He helped cut income but step two will be in our hands next year not his.

3. I liked Rachel's showing his 2011 earnest "concern" about the debt and deficits, then

reminding us of the GOP tax and spending bills that he helped push through that explode the debt and deficits.

6. Hey, Dr. K, Joy Reid just gave you a shout out in calling Ryan FlimFlam Man 8 years ago!

(on Lawrence O'Donnell's show).

[Kurt V.]

7. It's guys like Ryan..

8. Kick

9. yeah, well, you should have just said it was a few dipshits on very loud rw radio stations

[NoMoreRepugs]

10. The goobers n gomers have all been taught by

Rash Limpballs and Faux that DEMOHCRATS (I accentuate the O for the goobers) are the big spenders and if u care about the deficit vote REEEPUBLICAN.

Geez, howz that working out fellas?

11. The audacity of dopes!

Great quote from the article: “But it’s the audacity of dopes. Mr. Ryan isn’t offering fresh food for thought; he’s serving up leftovers from the 1990s, drenched in flimflam sauce.”

12. Is he ever on MSNBC anymore? nt

[spooky3]

14. I wondered the same thing tonight. I can't recall seeing him for a long time.

[Honeycombe8]

17. I know that Scarborough got mad @ him, so he's not on MJ anymore. But I thought...

But I thought he might be on other shows that I don't watch.

13. Here's a pretty funny one from yesterday.

19. "the audacity of dopes"

God, what a great line.

Paul Ryan has not been good for this country. Krugman, though, is a national treasure.
