The Real Problem Behind Bob Woodward

Submitted by Jonathan Tasini on October 3, 2006 - 8:37am.

I've been walking around, saying to anyone who will listen: have people gone stark raving mad when they bow down to Bob Woodward? Here's a guy who wrote two books that praised the Bush Administration's conduct around the Iraq war (oh, yes, he will simply say he was just reporting). And, now, he writes a new book that says, oooppsss, all that was wrong. In fact, what most people were saying all along, and Woodward ignored, is true: the Administration was hell-bent on war, mislead the people and is incompetent. Welcome to the real world, Bob.

Arianna Huffington gets it right in a blog she posted yesterday.

Spread the word. Don't buy Woodward's book. Spend your money instead on Frank Rich's book: "The Greatest Story Ever Sold: The Decline and Fall of Truth from 9/11 to Katrina."
