Paul Krugman¹ is furious with Barack Obama for not stepping on the necks of Republicans. He simply hates it that Obama isn't governing from the far (read "totalitarian") left. Krugman is so far out of the mainstream of American society that it's frightening, or would be if he weren't such a buffoon. He thinks Obama is a centrist! God forbid we ever have a president to Krugman's liking.

¹"Op-Ed columnist Paul Krugman has the disturbing habit of shaping, slicing and selectively citing numbers in a fashion that pleases his acolytes but leaves him open to substantive assaults" (Daniel Okrent, "13 Things I Meant to Write About but Never Did," The New York Times, 22 May 2005).
