This was one of the few times I disagreed with Krugman. These days I'm a mite sensitive to enabling abusive administrations who choose to raid our locked boxes. Redirecting sounds too much like lack of oversight. And if we've learned nothing else from Bush, the simple lesson that enforcing laws not making new law/excuses will make us safe and prosperous. Of course, when Bush's financial fiascos are revealed and the bottom line discovered on Iraq, even the Chinese & the Saudis combined won't be able to buy us out.
