Paul Krugman, editorial writer for the New York Times and Pulitzer prize winning economist (which he deserves about as much as the Nobel Peace Prize given to President Obama) decided to use his September 11 editorial to accuse "fake heroes" such as then New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and President George W. Bush of cashing in on the horror of the attacks. The title of his column is "The Conscience of a Liberal" and it shows exactly that he has none. I imagine his conscience can be found somewhere near his courage, which is assuredly shown as lacking in that he disabled the ability for users to comment on his editorial. It is a common tactic among many on the left to refuse to allow for comment and to ridicule those that disagree with them rather than addressing substantive points (i.e., Al Gore). This piece (of shit) by Krugman shows what a lack of class, courage and conviction he truly has on the day we remember 10 years since the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
I need to clarify that after looking at this a bit more, it appears that this is part of Krugman's Times Blog and may or may not have appeared in the print edition. He's still an asshole.
