Q Dana, to the Woodward book, if you have any comments on the Woodward book in general?Dana: Okay. I haven't -- I don't have a copy of the book yet. We did receive one or two at the White House late yesterday evening, and they are working through it. So all I know is the coverage of the book that I've seen, and that I've read in news reports of it.
I would say that in general, the President of the United States, any President of the United States is criticized for lots of different things. I think the results of the surge are undeniable. And in Washington, sometimes you see that the process has been -- comes under extra scrutiny, and can be picked apart in ways that aren't reflective of the end result.
This President, it seems to me that he gets criticism that if he's perceived to be careful or deliberative, he's accused of being slow. And if he is decisive, he is accused of being impulsive and rash.

STATEMENT BY NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR STEPHEN J. HADLEY — [IN YOUR FACE BOB WOODWARD!]
This morning’s Washington Post reports on a new book by Bob Woodward. While the book itself is not yet public, the picture of Iraq policy that is presented in the Washington Post article is at least incomplete.

Thanks for today’s update on what the President and his VP and S of S are doing.
And, by the way, wasn’t Yushchenko the one who was poisoned and had blisters and scars on his face just a few weeks before their election?
Is it me, or do you notice Dick looking thinner lately?
