Fact-free Times
How fact-free and fact-resistant are the regular contributors on the op-ed page of the most prominent newspaper in America? Read Powerline’s dissection of Paul Krugman’s claim that the U.S.S. Bataan, though stationed in the Gulf and ready to come to the victims’ assistance, remained an unused resource during the disaster, because, Krugman avers, of the “lethal ineptitude” of federal officials. Powerline simply went to Google and got the facts, accessible to anyone with an Internet connection and ten minutes to spare, on the Bataan’s very substantial involvement in Gulf disaster relief.
Question: What kind of human beings work at the New York Times, that they write and publish such things as Krugman’s column? Answer: They are people who care about nothing except maintaining the Bush-hatred which is their air, their water, their food; their party, their country, their world. Email entry |
