Shock: A Sunday editorial page mostly free of "olds"

After several weeks of stale Sunday editorial page content, James Howard Gibbons finally put together a Sunday page that is almost entirely fresh, and even contains a fair number of op-eds of local interest.

Apparently, Mr. Gibbons couldn’t resist running one bit of “olds” by Jonathan Chait, for obvious reasons:

Earlier this month, when President Bush met with Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III to interview him for a potential Supreme Court nomination, the conversation turned to exercise. When asked by the president of the United States how often he exercised, Wilkinson impressively responded that he runs 3 1/2 miles a day. Bush urged him to adopt more cross-training. “He warned me of impending doom,” Wilkinson told The New York Times.

Am I the only person who finds this disturbing?

The crew at Brothers Judd answered that question rather well with their headline way back on July 22, when Chait’s op-ed appeared in the LA Times.
