The fact that they would try it with Woodward of all people shows that they are nuts.

Sure was a fast trip between “We’ve seen plenty of lying in a certain recent President” to “Madness of a kind we haven’t seen for some time.” I wonder if this was the precipitating event?

So, he was threatened electronically and will not provide proof?

seems like a "Oh, l@@k at ME, l@@k at me!!" type thing. Put up or shut up Bob.

Here’s the thing. I was really upset by Obama’s re-election, I still am and will be until he’s gone. But as I attempted to step back from that, I came to the realization that at some point in time, he was going to do something that would be the equal to Fonzi’s jumping the shark moment. He is extremely arrogant and that will be his very undoing. I honestly don’t expect him to finish this term and I believe he will end up leaving of his own accord. He has the potentials to do a lot of damage, but what he doesn have on his side is time.

While I have literally no respect for Bob Woodward, he has been around the block a few times and I doubt he is going to be scared of Obama’s team when he was instrumental in taking down Nixon’s.

He might have files full of detailed info and dirt on this administration which are in the hands of numerous people to be published openly upon something possibly happening to him. Regardless, he should take any 'threat' from the Chicago gang seriously.

Probably Adolf Axelfraud..Obama has threatened everyone in America if they don’t support his agenda..that is what Obama does, he threatens people, and when he doesn’t get his way, he has them killed

I don’t think it is a small thing that Woodward spoke out on this before cuts, or reductions in rt of growth, even go into effect. I reckon his integrity trumps his political inclinations. Rare bird these days.

His peers, and many of them doubtless admirerers, must be tormented by his move.

Love to be a fly on the wall in the white house; this Woodward slapdown is damaging to them and there must be much running about in circles screaming and shouting. I suspect a cigarette might be sneaked now and again, too. And still more desperate plotting while knowing in the back of their wicked little minds they may well have already overplayed their crisis hand. Not much in the way of political deserts these days, but I am savoring this dish.
