A chill wind blows.
In light of the horrific murder of a security guard by an
alleged extremist at the U.S. Holocaust Museum, liberal
pontificator Paul Krugman of the New York Times is the
latest unhinged pundit to join in the left's campaign
to silence conservatives and libertarians.
His latest column is filled with lies and distortions about
the discredited, now-withdrawn Department of Homeland Security
report on "rightwing extremism" that labeled all conservatives,
libertarians, and returning veterans as potential terrorists and
directed law enforcement officials across the country to act.
Shame on him.
Krugman should remember that the hate-crimes legislation that the
left has been hysterically demanding for years could one day be
used against him.
(I had a
vigorous discussion yesterday about the shooting and the
left's reaction to it with progressive talker Thom Hartmann
on his show yesterday.)
