'32 DAYS IN NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER': "The New Republic" has a hilarious parody of that Bob Woodward-penned "Washington Post" series on the Bush administration's reaction to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. (Link via Romensko.) Here's a sample:

The night before, chatting with Attorney General John Ashcroft in the greenroom before their appearances on "Larry King Live," enjoying a Diet Coke and some slices of pineapple, Woodward had offhandedly mentioned the story, and already the calls were coming in. But perhaps Woodward's comment to Ashcroft was not offhanded at all. He was no novice in this town. He knew how leaking begins.
