Krugman Nails It.

I have to give credit to columnist and economist Paul Krugman for having the courage to call the showdown between the Shrub and Congress exactly what it is: a hostage situation, with our soldiers as the hostages. Rather than accept that he has lost a war he never should have begun, George W. Bush is holding a gun to the heads of our troops, whom he needlessly stuck in Iraq. Congress should end funding for the war, providing enough only to bring our soldiers home.
