Missing the Point

I mentioned that there has been a bit of a kerfuffle concerning the neo-Liberal, but  somehow left, paying no attention to the left left.  In a post over to Rortybomb, someone short hands the criticism as
[c]ontra Freddie, If you want left economics writing great stuff that is relevant to the current discussion there’s plenty to choose from; I’d recommend adding his blog to your rss feeder.
What Freddie actually argued is that no one from the neo-Liberal alleged left pays any attention to arguments from their left. Both Yglesias and Jon Chait agreed. This is a very important point and question.  The answers, I thought, were revealing and I hope to have something more to say directly.  So all six of you can wait with baited breath.
