Did you catch these? A couple of months ago, the inimitable New York Times columnist Paul Krugman (as always) tried to slam Republicans and conservatives, but (as always) mainly opened yet another window into the liberal mind. For example: "It has long been clear that President Bush doesn’t feel other people’s pain."
(To the Krugmans of the world, that kind of vacuous emotionalism is for some reason most important in a president.) And:
"To appeal to the G.O.P. base, however, you have to say very stupid things..."
(Because, hey, all members of the Republican base are stupid. Or, at least, such is what the Krugmans of the world believe, in order to console themselves.)
