Professional Malpractice by GOP Economists

Professional Malpractice by GOP Economists
"A big story among the dismal science set has been the Romney campaign's white paper on economic policy, which represents a concerted effort by three economists — Glenn Hubbard, Greg Mankiw and John Taylor — to destroy their own reputations. (Yes, there was a fourth author, Kevin Hassett. But the co-author of "Dow 36,000" doesn't exactly have a reputation to destroy.)
And when I talk about destroying reputations, I don't just mean that these three say things I disagree with. I mean flat-out, undeniable, professional malpractice."
