Listen to the tape.

The interview conducted and edited by the completely unbiased Woodward, and only made public when Ford is dead and can't respond?

If Ford had wanted to respond, he wouldn't have insisted on a posthumous release.

Gerald Ford had a choice of who conducted and edited this interview and he choose Woodward. He must have had some confidence in him and his work.

Were you so against Woodward when he wrote the very complimentary "Bush at War"? "Plan of Attack" was also recommended by the Bush Administration. Maybe, just maybe Woodward writes about what he sees. He has had extraordinary access to the Bush White House.

I'd imagine if there are problems with either the content or timing of the Ford interview we'll hear from Betty about it. She's never been known to be shy about expressing herself.

The point of this whole thing is - when these interviews took place, Ford was like 90 years old! The key question is, who puts any stock at all into what a 90 year old says about anything? Now that Billy Graham is old, he's been recorded saying that he believes Muslims are going to heaven - that's not what Billy Graham really believes, but he's so old he's started to lose his mind. We can't really trust that what someone of such an advanced age says is even their true opinion of the matter at hand.
