A foul, inflammatory, and deliberately offensive piece by a coward and a second-rate political hack. It is also a blatant lie.
And then the attack was used to justify an unrelated war...
No, it was not. Bush was very specific that he did NOT suspect Saddam Hussein's involvement in 9/11 on a number of occasions, notably his first speech in the UN on the topic. Moreover, that war - one assumes he is referring to Iraq; not even Krugman would be stupid enough to pretend that Afghanistan was "unrelated" - that war had been going on for a decade before Bush entered office. Whether any of whoever Krugman means by "neocons" did so is impossible to say inasmuch as he declined to identify anyone. That too is a tactic of cowardice.
In fact, the most common complaint against the "neocons" was not that they prosecuted Iraq in the name of 9/11 but that they didn't, preferring instead to couch that activity in terms of advancement of democracy. Krugman is acting as if the silliest accusations on the Left are now established fact merely through repetition. It's not flying, and his refusal to accept comments indicates that he knows it.
Of what, then, is Krugman ashamed? He is ashamed that his country fought back. He is ashamed that it won. He is ashamed that we didn't fall to our knees after 2700 people were murdered and blame ourselves, or at least the Republicans. He is ashamed of his country. He should be ashamed of himself.

Krugman is at the bottom of the barrel with all the other liberals

The NY Times should fire him.?? Are you kidding, paul krugman IS the new york times.
The Times also has Mareen Dowd but then that's just being redundant.
As the "Newspaper of Record"(Who says? Other Liberals, of course!!)One would think even it has a level it wouldn't dare to sink. but time after time one is proven wrong...

Bush led the nation through a difficult time as best he could, and did a good job.
Krugman cashes in by pandering to liberal bigotry and hate.

"Yes, these reporters are truly the result of what happens when we lower education standards." Yes, there was a time that a Nobel Laureate knew how to spell "The" (And when journalists had enough respect for the public to proofread their work).: "Te atrocity" indeed.
On the other hand, his head is so far up his a** he could have had trouble seeing it.

Thanks. I kept mine short:
So, exactly what were you thinking when you published Paul Krugmans article, The Conscience of a Liberal?
What a horrible and tasteless piece of garbage for you to promote on a day when we should all be working towards unity and drawing together as a nation!

Sounds like he has a serious case of envy(also known as one of the seven deadly sins). The man wishes so much that the left had been in charge to show their “true” leadership capabilities that it has metastasized into hate for anyone and everyone who showed any sign of leadership and was not one of the “elites”. This cancerous way of thinking continues to progress throughout our society and at the same time intensifies in those who have already been swept away by it. Unfortunately this is a very troubling sign of what is yet to come for us and our country.

Paul Krugman already endures horrific punishment: after all, he is consigned, for all eternity, to be Paul Krugman.
To: DarkWaters
Yes, Krugman suffers a sickness of soul which is becoming unfortunately more common.
