Free Friedman

This week, you can read it for free: Tom Friedman's column at the New York Times (and other Times Select material). To quote:
George Bush, Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld think you’re stupid. Yes, they do.

They think they can take a mangled quip about President Bush and Iraq by John Kerry — a man who is not even running for office but who, unlike Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, never ran away from combat service — and get you to vote against all Democrats in this election.
Here's Krugman's, also free.

By the way, ever since that Times Select thing started, I've found it strange that the NYT is charging for opinion columns. Are they really making more money than they could from ads?
(A friend argued that the op-ed columns are the most unique product they have to offer—most of the news content is syndicated for other news sources. But, still, I don't like it! :-)
