Going through the blog/youtube/facebook comments is even more fun than the debate.
Check em out:
One comment in particular struck me:
I had flashbacks to the Wenzel\Peter Schiff debate. Mr Wenzel had similar tactics and Schiff explains them in the first couple of minutes of the youtube video titled: Peter Schiff Responds to Friday’s Guest Robert Wenzel 10-24-11
That’s actually what I was thinking (and actually alluded to in my original post). If you recall Wenzel’s appearance on Schiff’s show back then, Wenzel was as confused as ever. I actually provided an extensive coverage of that whole fiasco and the aftermath, starting here.
But get a load of the video the commenter is talking about. I actually posted it in that thread…
It’s almost like he’s describing the Kinsella debate. When Wenzel’s wrong, he’s so wrong, and handles it so poorly, it makes you wonder if he actually has some kind of mental defficiency. Kinsella suggested he might be functionally retarded. Some YouTube commentors wondered if he was autistic. As I did back then, I’m going with good old senility. You get a similar sounding craziness when you listen to Warren Buffett. That’s another poor bastard that I think has gone off the deep end.
