Click the green dinosaur on your way out, Okrent

Read Paul Krugman's replies to departing Public Douche Bag, Daniel Okrent, formerly of the New York Times.

Here's a fine snippet of Krugman's long suffering anti-invective:

Moreover, I not only played fair with my readers, I urged them to check the data for themselves. Here’s what I wrote in the column:

“Go to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Web site at stats.bls.gov. Click on ‘U.S. economy at a glance,’ then on the green dinosaur next to ‘Change in payroll employment’ for a 10-year chart of monthly job gains and losses.”

If Mr. Okrent had done that, he would have seen for himself that what I said about job growth was true.

Hat tips to Rob of LGM, Jesse of Pandagon, and Armando of DKos. Not to mention Atrios--who incidentally, is going to be around forever. Whip it out, Instapundit, show us your LDL.
