Woodward drank the kool-aid

[bigbrother05]

Just watching a replay of Larry King with a panel that included Bob Woodward, Michael Isikoff, Sens. Dodd & L. Graham, and David Gergen off camera. Talking about the Plame case, Woody kept saying that it all started as cocktail party gossip and wouldn't amount to anything. All the others disagreed and all but Graham felt it went beyond the leak to the entire run up to the war. Woody kept trying to minimize it all, 'move on, no story here".

Woodward is totally worthless as a journalist, have been suspicious of his motivations for quite awhile, but he's not even trying to hide it now. Those RW book buyers just love to point to his books on their shelf as evidence of their broadmindedness, just like some of their best friends are black and they have a gay family member. He should share a special place in history with Leni Reifenstahl.

1. Carl Bernstein was the smart one of the pair, apparently....

He remains sane and progressive...

2. Is this the same Woodward who said in 2000

"Gore cannot comprehend reality" ?


The guy is a whore. He rewards those who give him access and punish those who are not willing to talk to him.

7. Exactly -- it's odd everyone always thinks he's a Lefty

He's never hidden his extreme RWness....

5. He has also drunken from every water cooler in the chimp cage.

6. He sure has

Woodward was sitting right next to King and the others were on the other side of the table. It was like Woodward had the Rightwing talking points down better than King did, so he was the one responding to Dodd and Isikoff. Woodward made Graham sound pretty moderate.

8. He didn't just drink the Kool Aid...

he's swimming in it.

9. Woodward insults the American people's intelligence.

Just like Bush and his silly lies he tells over and over and over.

What you saw on Larry King is called "OUT ON A LIMB" and the GOPers have nobody to blame but themselves. To be somebody that talks to God every day, you'd think the big dude almighty up there on cloud 9, would have clued Bush in on "Be Sure Your Sins Will Find You Out!"

I said it before and I'll say it one more again...

It's a damned shame, when the White House, has the highest crime rate in the nation. More criminals than in any other household in the country.

Treason, Obstruction, Murder, Torture, Theft, you name it, the outlaws in the GOP are "out on a limb." I hope Mr. Fitzgerald can saw it off!

Bush wants to hold the first graders accountable at school, but he isn't as tough as the first graders he goes around lying to. He can dish it out, but he can't take it like the little kids.

10. Bob Woodward? Is that the guy whose book, PLAN OF ATTACK,

was literally promoted on the White House's website?

11. In other words,

Woodward SERVES the Kool-Aid
