And President Obama is being called upon to put a stop to the race baiters who are using manufactured racism claims to stifle the debate on healthcare reform....

Quote:
"Paul Krugman is the one with race on the brain," Project 21 Chairman Mychal Massie charged. "Specifically, he is using race in the lowest and most repulsive declinations. He is using it because every other argument to stem the growing tide of condemnation for the proposed health care reform bill has failed. Ergo, when all else fails, parade out the race card and attempt to incite blacks into becoming the useful idiots."

Black Activists Call on Obama to Condemn Race-Baiting Tactics in Health Care Debate


National Center for Public Policy Research - SourceWatch

"Following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, NCPPR began using the rhetoric of anti-terrorism to attack environmentalists. In May 2002, it created the Envirotruth web site, to attack what it called the "jihad" that environmental activists are waging against corporations. [1] "

Can you say "Astroturf?"

And anyone who knows anything about the field knows Krugman is a moderate.

The group who is calling him out is an organization of black conservatives. I guess this is one of those times thought that we see the liberals trot out and try to discredit any opinions they have since they don't tend to fall in line with the victim mentality promoted by Dems.

As for calling Krugman a moderate, only a communist would consider that guy moderate.
