New York Times Imitates ScrappleFace

"The latest figures on decreased jobless claims and a huge increase in third-quarter Gross Domestic Product (GDP) signal a continuation of the Clinton-Gore economic boom, according to an expert."--ScrappleFace.com, Oct. 31

"Adding to the Democrats' challenge is a fundamental economic reality that existed well before household and business spending soared this summer. As much as the economy weakened in the last three years, it was coming off such a high that it remains stronger by most measures than in the early 1990's. That high was reached on Mr. Clinton's watch, but it could help Mr. Bush next year."--New York Times, Nov. 2

Defeatist Déjà Vu

"Blueprint for a Mess: How the Bush administration's prewar planners bungled postwar Iraq."--headline and Web blurb, New York Times magazine, Nov. 2, 2003 (185 days after President Bush declared the end of "major combat operations")
