When Is A Columnist The Lonely Voice of Truth?

When he's Paul Krugman! Here's what he told Der Spiegel:

"Instead [of writing a column about the New Economy], I now find myself once again as the lonely voice of truth in a sea of corruption. Sometimes I think that one of these days I'll end up in one of those cages on Guantanamo Bay (laughs). But I can still seek asylum in Germany. I hope you'd accept me in an emergency."
