Is it just me, or are the 9/11 commemorations oddly subdued?

Actually, I don’t think it’s me, and it’s not really that odd.

What happened after 9/11 — and I think even people on the right know this, whether they admit it or not — was deeply shameful. Te atrocity should have been a unifying event, but instead it became a wedge issue. Fake heroes like Bernie Kerik, Rudy Giuliani, and, yes, George W. Bush raced to cash in on the horror. And then the attack was used to justify an unrelated war the neocons wanted to fight, for all the wrong reasons....

[2ndDivisionVet]

Yes, he went there!

[shortstop]

Has Asshat Krugman ever gotten anything right? What an embarrassment to humanity.

[sunmars]

I think thats generally called “asking for a slap”. yes he went there, shameful words.

[MNJohnnie]

This bigoted moronic jackass should be fired. This is possibly the stupidest bit of writing this idiot has ever penned.

[Dilbert56]

Wow, what a douche. He will lose all but his most rabid followers on this one. “Jumping the Shark” understates how off base he is here.

[vladimir998]

And of course he won’t allow comments to be posted for “obvious” reasons.

Jerk.

[trebb]

Yet Krugman sees no irony in his feeble attempt to cash in by trying to sound relevant and superior enough to render “judgement”... More proof that “liberalism” is a mental disorder.

[2ndDivisionVet]

He knows he’d get taken to the woodshed, even by many liberal readers.

[MNJohnnie]

I’m not going to allow comments on this post, for obvious reasons.

Gutless bigoted jackass

[Roses0508]

He didn’t allow comments.

[Da Coyote]

Yes, these reporters are truly the result of what happens when we lower education standards.

Just be thankful that none of the mental midgets are allowed anywhere near technical calculations.

[Alissa]

Then he shows his cowardice when he states he will not allow anyone to make comments on this depiscable commentary for obvious reasons.

If this is the "Conscience of a Liberal," then I agree that they have a mental disease.

[Jane Long]

I noticed that, too. He’s a chicken on top of being a complete jerk.

[P.O.E.]

I feel sorry for Krugman, hearing those voices in his head all the time. Someone should tell him there is help available.

[Happy Rain]

Krugman is a bitter little Bolshevik bastard,ain't he?

[B.O. Plenty]

I’m not going to allow comments on this post, for obvious reasons.

...and what reason would that be?....

...maybe the reflection in the mirror shines too much light?....

[marstegreg]

How dare he speak of “shame”. The only “shame” here falls at the feet of Krugman.

[bryan999]

If anyone has shamelessly cashed in on tragedies like this, it’s a scumbag like Krugman.

[Travis McGee]

Krugman is a disgusting little troll.

[noblejones]

We need a letter writing campaign to get this guy canned. Real, personal letters. This is beyond even the demorat pale.
