Krugman on Iran (answering a question): krugman.page.nytimes.com Paul Krugman: If we got a news flash tonight saying that bombs are dropping on Iran, do you have any confidence that leading figures in politics and the media would have the courage to condemn the president's action and question his motives? I don't. There would be a chorus of people — which would surely include just about every prominent Republican, plus Joe Lieberman and the editorial pages of The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal — praising the president and denouncing anyone who raises questions for undermining the commander-in-chief in a time of war. The public might nonetheless turn on the administration, but I wouldn't count on it.
