I hope that both sides kick the crap out of eachother.
Obviously, a fake... cause, I just read a White House statement saying this exchange NEVER happened??
Don’t think either side can kick that hard...
Usually when I hear the phrase “my bad” I’m looking at a youngster.
I think Bob Woodward was trying to re-create himself as a mighty journalitic warrior here.
Which is fine with me, goodness, it’s about time.
EXCEPT.....
.....that email exchange makes a lie out of all Woodward said. Sperling said Woodward would regret “taking the stance” that Obama’s minions created the sequester.
Now I been around politics a bit and that little verbal gem was very much a threat, yes it was. It’s how politicos do....they talke out of both sides of your mouth.
BUT....then Woodward slobbers in the email response “please don’t be mad at me, you never have to apologize to me”....sickening.
I am quite sure the White House released this email exchANGE. aNBYbody thinnks not, I got a bridge to sell....CHEAP!
Gene Sperling is sniveling little punk like The Ploofter. A north east commie who got his start working for Gov Mike Dukakis (Massachusetts) Sperling goes way back. He worked for Bill Clintoooooon too.
Politico is running interference for the administration. Any kind of attack on the White House results in the usual MSM toadies circling the wagons to protect their leader.
Where is 'deep throat' when 'deep throated'.
Its email --> is it possible that someone posted this with Sperling computer and/or password?
So then Sperling admits Obama owns the sequester.
Let’s see.
Sperling yells at Bob Woodward for half and hour, then sends a full page so-called apology telling Woodward to “rethink” his position or he will “regret” it.
But it’s not a threat. Got it.
Nice little career you got there, Bob—be a shame for something bad to happen to it.
Apology for raising their voice is something a female might do...
Not in my experience.
Who writes page-long emails after screaming on the phone for half an hour?
I imagine this kind of threatening posture is nothing new for this White House. (is that what they call the “Chicago way?”) Even IF Woodward is not cowed, or L.Davis, just think how many in the media ARE. This is an atmosphere which exists and therefore, the media is not only in ideological alignment but are otherwise controlled by intimidation. One wonders, “where are a few good men” of integrity willing to break ranks, to speak the truth — and not just when it benefits book sales.
Woodward makes a public claim against the WH, one that throws everyone in a tizzy because of who Woodward is.
After a bit of “controversy”, the e-mail is revealed, and WH innocence is declared - we are supposed to believe it, because the e-mail was “private conversation”.
I aint buying it - Woodward is a used car salesman and we shouldn't buy his old jalopy.
woodard’s reply indicates he was obviously frightened for his life /sarc
Well done Woodard you trolled the media once again for free publicity. You have a book coming out soon?
Bingo.
...you'd think they'd learned their lesson by now...
