  • Krugman wrote about Giuliani, Bush, and Kerik as "fake heroes" in his piece and yet he doesn't even have the courage to let people make comments about his tripe anonymously over the Internet.

  • On one hand, Krugman and the New York Times should be chided for this rotten opinion piece. On the other hand, the worst thing to do to Krugman is to ignore it all together. "No one read it cause no one cares about what you write." Sort of thing. Making a big deal over it is just the controversy this elitist prick was hoping to make.

    • I should follow this up with the visuals of the media making a hay day over this and praising him for being "so controversal". Which is what I ment to add originally before I became distracted and hit submit without thinking.
