Krugman offers Us His True Perspective on the Soul.

Abstract: Paul Krugman of the NYT departs from his usual numerological massage of selected economic datum bits and offers his novel philosophy on reclaiming America’s soul.’ This is, at once, strangely refreshing as he appears to offer us the facts, even as he distorts them, without bias or rancor—defined, of course, within his own liberal framework. This is a true advance in his writings and we are thankful for his candor.  But, his logical approach to solving the morality crisis that he conjures up from pure spite is but a ruse for a crude sort of political revenge that we find in rabid dog fights and is known to be saliently implicit in the industries of narcotics, terrorism and prostitution. His argument falls from grace on the definition of a single word[1], as usual [like the definition of the word ‘economics’ he so often erratically pushes around the word processor]. Other intractable definitions for leftist words appear when we look at terms like racism, bias, justice and other solemn political vectors honed and kept well oiled by the sordid left. They distort these words for political gain. Krugman now advances the field by redefining morality.

Krugman does well with this essay as he reconciles the political process of witch hunts with morality, a syncretic advance in contemporary leftist political theory  and their version of morality in the leftist camp.  A second explanation is that he is just a hate-twisted loser who happens to sing the current tunes that sooth the left.  He needs a diversion as his economic advice will lead us to massive debt and later inflation if we survive the deflationary spiral that has gripped the known world. His distraction is ‘morality.’

Preamble:

The New York Times—aka the Walter Duranty Papers [2]--has a limited set of goals for their paper [as long as it lasts as they are close to bankruptcy] and this narrow list consists of: [1] apologizing for Communism, [2] propping up losers like Al Gore [the new Lysenko.[3]  As 21,000 of us, all scientists refute this crap.[4][5]] and his phony EcoNazism[6] or [3] celebrating AIDS and [4] hatching new lies so as to engorge government with honest taxpayer’s money.  Today, we receive some different and refreshing comments—essentially off topic-- from one of their celebrated writers on the Knowledge and Explanation of the American Soul.

The Coney Island Menagerie that crouch in the shadows at the bankrupt NYT always struggle to reinvent and apologize for Marxism and, currently, Islamo-Fascism. The movements here are a new political Siamese twin thus forming a symbiotic pair for the new-fangled and magical political solutions[7] to achieve a great society where one can happily apply their wondrous dreams to any problem along with the proper level taxes of course. But, we always need a new twist to entice the ignoranti and True Believers to the edge of the Snake Pit for their reward--French Revolution style. These chosen people are self-styled “intellectuals”—they conjure up novel ways to grunt and grab your money. But, today, their famous non-economist resident and decorated igNoble Leechette[8][9][10][11][12], one Paul Krugman, departs from his numerology and today instructs us on The Soul. Thus, Krugman broaches the tacky nostrum of a collective national soul to make his political point while avoiding religion. Novel.

This is exciting!:

“Nothing will be gained by spending our time and energy laying blame for the past.” So declared President Obama, after his commendable decision to release the legal memos that his predecessor used to justify torture. Some people in the political and media establishments have echoed his position. We need to look forward, not backward, they say. No prosecutions, please; no investigations; we’re just too busy.”[13]-- Reclaiming America’s Soul by Paul Krugman Op-Ed Columnist Published: April 23, 2009.  [Emphasis is mine in all quotes. This link references quotes in this essay unless otherwise indicated.]

The first part of this paragraph is a quote from President Obama that states that we will not lay blame as he offers up the proof of blame for his predecessor. His lap dogs at the liberal presses now have firm proof of torture and they should fly to the sun and beyond with this and make as much political hay as they can. This form of leftist double talk features the usual two-faced comments and can be translated as: we are going to bury you with your own documents but we said we wouldn’t.  There is little new here. But, the NYT pushes into new frontiers with this conundrum.

Krugman then steps in on part of the content and has this to say answering the question about being too busy:

“And there are indeed immense challenges out there: an economic crisis, a health care crisis, an environmental crisis. Isn’t revisiting the abuses of the last eight years, no matter how bad they were, a luxury we can’t afford?”-- Paul Krugman

Here, we struggle to decipher the embedded double negatives and their meaning. What he means here is that we MUST go after Bush and blame him for any and all ills such as the economic crisis even thought Nancy Pelosi [the Reptile of San Francisco[14] a loathsome, vindictive Marxist parasite also known as Spartacus [15][in honor of the Marxist heroine Rosa Luxemburg] the former chair of the Marxist Progressive Caucus[16] or Congress' Red Army caucus[17] personally approved the spending of every dime in the last three budgets. We must blame Bush for the spending. We must also blame Bush for an ‘illegal war[18]’ and torture.[19]

“No, it isn’t, because America is more than a collection of policies. We are, or at least we used to be, a nation of moral ideals. In the past, our government has sometimes done an imperfect job of upholding those ideals. But never before have our leaders so utterly betrayed everything our nation stands for. “This government does not torture people[20],” declared former President Bush, but it did, and all the world knows it.”-- Paul Krugman

This fascinating! Harry Truman wasted 160,000 Japanese civilians in less than .1 second, Wilson sent 160,000 soldiers to their deaths in a futile war in Europe we had nothing to with, FDR indirectly murdered 400,000 US soldiers and the Planed Parenthood group has, so far, whacked 25,000,000 babies, but there was no t0rture here! Was any of this immoral?? Some of us must have missed the morality in killing so many people or, worse, abandoning allies such as they did in Laos, Viet Nam and Cambodia.   Apparently, the notion or concept of ‘morality’ has several malleable definitions that can be inserted like pins in a cushion[21] according to the current context. Nobody is more fascinating that Krugman when he plays at mortality or logic. Two scum-grade terrorist dirt bags get their noses watered a few times and we have some moral explosion in North America that requires a Soviet style Show Trial. This is actually the finest work Krugman has produced to date.  He needs to get into the morality business and drop the phony pretext that he knows anything about economics.

[Note: if water boarding is NOT torture [as it is not], then cadit quaestio.[22]

“For example, would investigating the crimes of the Bush era really divert time and energy needed elsewhere?”-- Paul Krugman

He then gives a list of busy persons handily wrecking our society [don’t bother to read this tripe…] and economy and sums up with:

“I don’t know about you[23], but I think America is capable of uncovering the truth[24] and enforcing the law[25] even while it goes about its other business.”-- Paul Krugman

Translated as: we always have time to pursue the moral aspects of revenge, churlishness and the opportunity to smear those who came before us.

Krugman sums up and justifies a smear campaign.

“Some of them probably just don’t want an ugly scene; my guess is that the president, who clearly prefers visions of uplift to confrontation, is in that group. But the ugliness is already there,[sic] and pretending it isn’t won’t make it go away.”-- Paul Krugman

The noble quest for the exposition of ugliness!!

Why don’t we do this with Waco, the Martin Luther King FBI files buried away to avoid analysis, the connections between Obama and the radicals in college and perhaps who did what when at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae? There is a bunch of ugly there. Why isn’t Jingo Janet Reno on trial? Why don’t we look at where the trillions of dollars went in the bank bailouts? Oh! That is not immoral? We have to focus on some terrorist maggot and his treatment. [26]

Krugman winds up in a fury of spite and churlishness:

“Sorry, but what we really should do for the sake of the country is have investigations both of torture and of the march to war. These investigations should, where appropriate, be followed by prosecutions — not out of vindictiveness[27], but because this is a nation of laws.”-- Paul Krugman

“We need to do this for the sake of our future. For this isn’t about looking backward, it’s about looking forward — because it’s about reclaiming America’s soul.”-- Paul Krugman

Krugman is a revenge monger and hate artist and his own words here demonstrate his frenzy and lust for settling of scores. His essay on vindictiveness is very convincing when the nattering is sifted out. He is a first-class hater.  But, this is probably Paul’s best work and we should acknowledge him for that. What we need to reclaim is from the left’s immoral practices and we need to prevent sloth, sodomy, drug addiction, perversions and tax mongering “for the sake of our future.  We have no meaningful future with Marxists and their Islamic stooges.
