Job Numbers in an Election Year

Job Numbers in an Election Year 08/10/2004 12:47 PM
I'll grant that often you can say anything you want with statistics, but in these letters to the NY Times editor (in response to this article), one statistic really stood out:

For the last 54 years, spanning 14 presidential terms and 11 different presidents, six of the top seven job-growth terms were presided over by Democrats, while Republican presidents were in office for all seven of the lowest job-growth terms.

Is there a lesson to be learned from this for the working men and women of America?

Wartime (and Election Year) Polemics

Wartime (and Election Year) Polemics 05/23/2004 12:03 PM

Frank Rich (NY Times): Michael Moore's Candid Camera. Of course, Mr. Moore is being selective in what he chooses to include in his movie; he's a polemicist, not a journalist. But he implicitly raises the issue that much of what we've seen elsewhere during this war, often under the label of "news," has been just as subjectively edited. Perhaps the most damning sequence in "Fahrenheit 9/11" is the one showing American troops as they ridicule hooded detainees in a holding pen near Samara, Iraq, in December 2003. A male soldier touches the erection of a prisoner lying on a stretcher underneath a blanket, an intimation of the sexual humiliations that were happening at Abu Ghraib at that same time. Besides adding further corroboration to Seymour Hersh's report that the top command has sanctioned a culture of abuse not confined to a single prison or a single company or seven guards, this video raises another question: why didn't we see any of this on American TV before "60 Minutes II"?
