Draft Krugman Pressure Grows As Krugman Threatens To Join Japan Government

     Tuesday, 22 January 2013, NEW YORK, NEW YORK - Nobel Prize winning best-selling iconoclast (destroyer of images) revolutionary author, Princeton University economics professor, New York Times columnist on the economics of inequality (without according to sources taking any pay), known as a most reserved and intensely private man in his copious free time when not also frequently participating in and attending cultural events and reportedly reading as much as MIT linguistics professor Noam Chomsky (as many as eight world newspapers before breakfast).
     Happy New Year, Professor Krugman. Yes, we have had at the Ninth Amendment with a couple exceptions a woefully inadequate start to the year with a dearth of fresh posts amidst a virtual flood of unexpectedly noteworthy news with its usual either virtually complete omission or dangerously misinterpreted overlooked potential long-term significance by the mainstream press portending amongst other things a slew of Bush-syle "Mission Accomplished" proclamations by the Government which at the very moment those words are struck is busy laying the groundwork for the next conflict. In most cases the Government patiently has been waiting for the soldiers to assemble for initial deployment or re-deployment as the case may be, and the next generation of weapons has carefully been prepared to once again see America's soldiers serendipitously prepared for just the demands of the latest strategic and global developments in some formerly barely known corner of the world.
     With all due respect, sir, we unanimously advise you not go to Japan right now to visit the Emperor. The editorial board of the Ninth Amendment log at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com unanimously so votes (with one procedural abstention due to a temporary ugly misunderstanding with Mali customs officials) that it would not be in the best interest of you nor your 2016 Presidential campaign for you to become yet more irradiated than Western physicians already have made all of us. It also is hard to see how even you would have the time considering your many other serious commitments. Your domestic electoral base grows exponentially as your strength, persistence, intellect, wisdom, experience, complete independence of rigorously informed thought, and absolute willingness to act accordingly, make themselves abundantly clear.      
     You further are understood to be a man of your word unlike our current President Obama who sadly demonstrates his failure to comprehend that a person in the end has nothing more than their word. Thus suggesting (dare we say) that the Founding Fathers might have considered upping in the Constitution the minimum age for one to serve as President. In any case our unsolicited suggestion is that you avoid travel to Japan for the moment and leave that to Texas Governor Perry and his wife to drum up Japanese tourism business for Texas. By the way we recognize the sheer brilliance of the coin minting proposal and humbly suggest failing that the issuance of a stamp.
