More Bad Behavior from DeLong

Go back to the DeLong post I mentioned here.  Note that he's now obliterated ALL of Bob Murphy original post, including the link to it, that made the points that DeLong apparently can't stand to have read by the public.  Un-freakin'-believable.  Unbelievable.  Shine a spotlight on the roach, I say.

Is someone documenting all this with screenshots, etc.? Google's cache of DeLong's blog is already updated to the current version (seems a bit odd, especially in light of the other developments).

Is the Reality-Based Community a subdivision of the Ministry of Truth?

Dump that "Stimulus Puck" into the corner for De Long to retrieve then have Tomas Pock ( Austrian) smash him into the boards of economic reality and call for the trainer to administer some smelling salts to see if there are any signs of intelligent economic thoughts!

Brad DeLong is a pompous arse. He deserves to be ignored.

Priceless.

I would love to follow this, but it is not good for my mental health.

DeLong has not mastered even the simple lessons most people learn in the sandbox.

He would be incensed if others treated him the way he treats others.

Not only is he a bad economist--check out his characterizations of Greenspan as a super-human Maestro from around the time of the Bernanke appointment--but DeLong's a wretched human being.

If someone wanted me to give a talk on "How Can Smart People Be So Stupid," I might devote the entire hour to Brad DeLong as an object lesson, a cautionary tale.

Delong is debating zingales about keynesianism at the economist website. Readers can vote. Who do you think is most persuasive? So far, I have it for zingales.

Also he's arguing with everyone in the reader comments section which is strange. I didn't think that's how the format was supposed to work, but who knows. Maybe he's annoyed he can't delete smart things people say about his argument.
