KRUGMAN-KRAUTHAMMER CREATIVITY: One would think that when a legendary free trade advocate such as Paul Krugman writes a column on free trade, he would take aim at the two Democratic presidential candidates who are currently attacking NAFTA. Nope. One would think that when Charles Krauthammer, who believes that "the sanctity of the Constitution trumps everything, even marriage", writes about the proposed gay marriage amendment, he would take aim at the president who is currently supporting that amendment. Nope. Just two more examples of how creative columnists can manage to minimize criticism of their own party while writing about nearly any topic.
