Today's Krugman

MANIFESTO

Krugman this morning points out what's been apparent for some time:

There’s now a concerted effort under way to rehabilitate [George W.] Bush’s image on at least three fronts: the economy, the deficit and the war.

Indeed, a basic strategy of Republicans for the upcoming elections is to run on those very things that garnered GI George a 22% approval rating by the time he left office.

As one scratches his head over the craziness of all of this, one can't help but be reminded of Einstein's definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
