Krugman accuses Obama of "unscrupulous demagoguery"
Responding to comments Sen. Barack Obama made about the healthcare plans he and Sen. Hillary Clinton are offering, the Times columnist gets right to the point.
Alex Koppelman [2008-02-05]

  • Breaking down "unscrupulous demagoguery"

    impassioned - check

    appeals to popular prejudices and emotions - check

    without moral principles or ethical standards - check

    says generally stupid and illogical stuff - check

    Which makes Obama - holy smokes a politician.
