Given pretty much everything they do and say – think Michael Steele, Rush Limbaugh, Bobby Jindal, tea parties – it's tough to argue with economist Paul Krugman that "Republicans have become embarrassing to watch." While he offers a compassionate caveat – "It doesn’t feel right to make fun of crazy people " – he also issues a warning. Republicans, in fact, seem not much more crazy than they ever have, which didn't stop them, not long ago, from getting alot of power and wreaking alot of havoc. Most telling in Krugman's look backward: the term 'liberal' was once insult enough; these days it's 'socialist.' Is this what you call progress?

Didn't we already go through a time when everyone was suspected of being communist or socialist? I don't remember when Liberal became such a dirty word.

There was 1 republican president between 1933 and 1968. Democrats controlled the House from 1954 until 1994. They controlled the Senate from 1954 until 1981. Then 1988 until 1994.

How many times have we heard the same song? Conservatism is dead. Republicans are done. BLAH BLAH BLAH...

Enjoy it while you can. It won't last 40 years.

Doesn't Liberal mean; Give away the farm just as long as it ain't mine?

what's wrong with the tea party???

You arent allowed to complain when the messiah is raising rich peoples taxes.
