Comparing URLs in Google Analytics

I've got several situations where I want to compare the current performance of a site section to past performance, but the URLs aren't the same. Obviously I can export the data and massage it as needed, but is there a way to do that from within GA? For example, if I renamed
example.com/blogstuff/
to
example.com/newsstuff/
for business reasons, is there a way to plot, say, July 2010 performance of blogstuff vs. the same period in 2009 for newsstuff?

I think one way might be to use a selection process that captures both URLs in one data set, and then just do a time period comparison. My syntax for an "OR" on the search limit in Content Drilldown hasn't worked, though. Am I on the right track?

I'm not sure how to do this. Sorry.
