IRAQ WAR ENDS
Thousands of New York commuters on Wednesday morning were handed copies of a newspaper that looked a lot like The New York Times, with a main headline blaring “IRAQ WAR ENDS.” Articles described a nation turned hard left: nationalized oil companies, a “maximum wage” law, the enactment of national health insurance, President Bush indicted for treason and evangelical churches providing sanctuary for Iraqi refugees. Even a skeptical reader might take a minute to notice that the date on the paper was July 4, 2009. The 14-page spoof is richly detailed, with layouts and typefaces similar to the genuine article, and ads that look realistic at first glance. An e-mail message to the news media announced the hoax, calling it “an elaborate operation six months in the planning” but did not say who was behind it. The statement said that 1.2 million copies were printed, more than the weekday circulation nationwide for real issues of The Times. That number is suspect, if only because of the printing costs that would be involved. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/13/arts/13fake.html http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/11/12/pranksters-spoof-the-times/?ref=arts Fake NY-Times webpage

The newspaper front page is a Liberal's wet dream. I suspect 75% of the Socialist BS as described on that page will be enacted under the new Administration. Good times ahead of Left Wing garbage. Bad times for real people.
