Krugman on Bush’s Rambo Impression
If you’re one of those who doesn’t like Paul Krugman, you won’t like his latest column. He indulges in a nice little type-M argument (i.e., he attributes impure motives to Bush, and attacks those motives rather than confining himself to attacking the outcome of Bush’s actions).
But this isn’t science, or a courtroom, or an Olympic judging panel, where objectivity is supposed to be sacrosanct. This is an opinion column, and it’s the columnist’s job to tell a compelling story about the world as he sees it; you can take that story or leave it, as you see fit.
From where I sit, Krugman hits it pretty close: The Rambo coalition.
