We didn’t threaten him and we’ll kill anyone who says that we did.

Well, if the threat was in an email, then it’s not going to be hard for Woodward to verify. Seems pretty stupid of the WH to call Woodward a liar if he can just produce the email on a Sunday morning show in retaliation.

We didn’t threaten him, the dead cat was just an accident.

So, they are calling Bob Woodward a liar. Let’s see if Woodword lies does and takes it.

I believe Woodward. Remember that story about the administration locking journalists in a closet during some event? These people want to control the message and have no desire for the truth of anything to come out.

The Obama administration has crossed a critical line on the way to tyranny.

All administrations Democrat and Republican will try to spin the news and facts to their own political advantage. The Obama administration is threatening reporters for telling the truth.

I have lived and worked in many foreign countries and some of these were dictatorships. I have seen the same thing happen in those countries. We are very close to losing democracy and freedom.

FoxNews/Tucker Carlson now reporting that Woodward may have ‘hyped’ the email and that the Sperling email wasn’t ‘that’ serious, as a threat.

Nothing is as it appears on the surface.;-)

Woodward is an old rodeo hand and is mostly baiting the WH.
