All Intensive Purposes

Alameida is maybe a little too harsh on Larry Summers here, but only a little. It's hard to find specific santences in what he said to fight with, but the decision to speculate on the basis of little more than economic intuition to a bunch of people who actually work on the subject was hardly a wise one.

Brad DeLong offers a qualified defense (or is he not that kind) of Summers' comments. Does it seem like most of the bloggers defending Summers are men, and most of the bloggers attacking him are women?
