Rumsfeld Cancels New York Times Subscription Over Krugman 9/11Blog Post

I think readers should telephone all paid advertisers of the NYT and CEASE to do business with all firms associated the NYT. If businesses associated with the NYT via advertisements have a loss revenues from unhappy customers – business will distance themselves from the NYT. Money from customers has and always will speak loudly of disapproval of the NYT and the trash opinions they publish! Money talks and is more powerful than the word of print!

Krugman is right!!

The people who should be in jail are the ones who started the BS war in Iraq and its associated military spending which in my opinion led to the financial collapse….

yeah.. that’s the ironic thing.. krugman IS right. Of all the things that we had to concentrate, how the hell did they come up with attacking iraq? We had SO much potential in the wake of 9/11, what we should have done is put that capital into developing alternative energy sources that work – nuclear, and coal to oil processes – to take the middle east’s money machine away and make our country energy secure. Hit ‘em in their pocketbook. Just THINK what 3 trillion dollars could have bought in that regard. Right now, we’d be sitting back, our energy supplies secure, and getting payback at the rate of 700 billion dollars a year (that’s how much we import in oil on a yearly basis). Instead, we are in a 15 trillion dollar hole, deeply divided. Our democracy is being hollowed out from the inside by special interest groups who want to maintain the status quo, and we are in grave danger of our economy caving in favor of the chinese.

Donald Rumsfeld is an occasion for shame.

The worst sin you can commit to the likes of Rumsfeld is to tell the truth. Don’t bother me with the facts. Deeper and deeper wrap the neocons in their coccoons. They did it. They started a war for their own ends based on an attack that had nothing to do with the country they invaded. The record is rock solid. The trail of lies is clear. In all the anguished cries of the right, there is not one that denies this.

I’m still trying to fathom Rumsfeld subscribing to the NYT … at all … lol!!

Krugman used the day to beat his drum. He is what he despises. We are all so exhausted from the constant bickering and cheap shots that pass for commentary. Was it really necessary to spew venom yet again. His column served no other purpose other than to tell the world why he thinks he’s right and all those who disagree are fake. Mr. Krugman you are worse than the men you discredit. You are a self-serving bystander who has never served or faced a serious decision in your life.

“They started a war for their own ends based on an attack that had nothing to do with the country they invaded.”

Look at their faces these days. They are haunted. Some, like Mr. Rumsfeld and Mr. Cheney, attempt to hide by reconstructing history. Or by casting blame on others like Condi Rice or the New York Times. It’s Shakespearean to watch their personal tragedies.

Truth hurts. The bombing gave GW a means to wage a war with Iraq under false pretenses and Rumsfeld was chief cheerleader, he was chief cheerleader for the war in Vietnam too and we all know how that war turned out. The bombings exposed the corruption and other unlawful banking practices. These things lead to the eventual crony pat on the back for Wall Street with a $5 Trillion corporate welfare bailout.

Paul Krugman’s despicable slanderous blog merits censure and condemnation by the American people and the entire responsible journalistic community. Mr. Krugman diminishes himself by writing such detritus. Furthermore, the once great newspaper the New York Times should end his employment. Mr. Krugman in disallowing comments on his piece completely denies the concept of a free press. He should have no place in the field of responsible jourbnaliusm.

Rummy can cancel his government pension too, as far as I’m concerned.

Krugman is an absolute disgrace.

He owes an apology to the American People and to our Service Men.

I will be writing to the NY Times to demand that he never be published again.

I will also write to Princeton, where he teaches, to demand an apology for this outrageous and insensitive comment.

The NYT is no longer “The Paper of Record.” Not while pieces of filth like Paul Krugman are on the payroll there. He is not fit to write for a middle-school newspaper.

And I’m astounded that anyone here would defend him, let ALONE agree with his blatherings.

And what is the reason for Obama’s administration helping get rid of Gaddafi? To help prevent genocide? Yeah, right……. Now that the United States has helped with the “Arab Spring” (I’ve always hated that term- wonder what idiot invented it) things are going to go to H— in northern Africa. Just look at all of the loose missiles and weapons free for the taking by any terrorst group. Look at how Israel is being picked upon like never before. It will be only a matter of time that all- war will occur in the Middle East. Makes me puke when Obama used to practically brag about the “new” democracies being brought about in Africa with our help.

Who cares what Rumsfeld reads? Who cares about what Krugman writes!

I’ll be the Times is staggering from this horrific blow. I mean seriously, life as we know it just ended.

Sorry, wingers, Krugman spoke the truth. And there are still plenty of scoundrels out there — people like Joe Scarborough, with his stupid new song — who exploit 9/11 for their own personal gain.
