Paul Krugman: Michelle Bachman's 'eliminationist rhetoric'

Powerline did the interview where Michelle Bachman uttered the famed "armed and dangerous" phrase that the New York times cites as right wing 'eliminationist' rhetoric.  He has the actual recording if you want to listen.  Here's what he says:


For the record, here is what Michele said: "I'm going to have materials for people when they leave. I want people armed and dangerous on this issue of the energy tax, because we need to fight back." Yes, that's right: she wanted Minnesotans to be armed with "materials"--facts and arguments--not guns. If this is the best example of "eliminationist rhetoric" that the far left can come up with, you can see how absurdly weak the claims of Krugman and his fellow haters are.

Imagine that:  an suburban mom from Minnesota whose 'eliminationist' rhetoric consists of arming her constituents with those deadly weapons:  facts and arguments.  She should be locked up, the vicious hater.  

Pity the New York Times has become such a rag.  I need to stop focusing on it because I am getting so angry at these creeps.  And they simply aren't worth it.
