Political Cartoons

Well, Krugman was talking about three things. He acknowledged the study that says that people use data to enforce their pre-held beliefs, but he also went on to point out that they TYPES of beliefs matter and furthermore what people do when they find their beliefs are wrong matter. Liberals are much more likely to acknowledge after the fact that their belief was wrong and work to fix it, a la Obamacare website spectactular failure, while conservatives are much more likely to deny deny deny, a la Iraq war.

The guy who thinks he can respond to Krugman simply ignores all that and makes a claim about how people interpret data then accuses Krugman of being wrong for something he didn't argue. Well, ok then. It's a pretty awful response piece.
