TEN YEARS AGO ON INSTAPUNDIT: “WE’RE IN THE MIDST OF A WAR AGAINST TERRORISM, thousands dead, the rest of us worried about smallpox, anthrax, smuggled nukes, dirty nukes, truck-bombs, car-bombs, luggage-bombs and even shoe-bombs. But the New York Times’ editors think that we should be worried about sparklers. Puhleez.”

UPDATE: Reader Craig Good writes: “And shall we compare the percentage change in readership between Instapundit and the NYT over those ten years?” No, that would be wrong.
