This thread also shows how badass people want simplistic answers to complicated problems.

eavesdropper wrote a great piece about how we denigrate smart people who study the issues. Some segments of population can only think in headlines and simplistic answers.[/quote]

Brian: This from a guy who is almost pathologically indisposed to giving a straight answer! Dude, please.

I also notice how you’re starting to spread the “badass” and “cowboy” meme, along with your Leftist fellow-travelers at the NYT, Nation and Mother Jones. Can’t help but notice the overt attack against Perry manifesting itself, including that Godawful piece of polemic from Krugman.

Yeah, Krugman’s a really smart guy, isn’t he? He seems to enjoy the simplistic, too, though.
