2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Pelosi says NO to GOP and White House. Please back her up! [View all]1StrongBlackMan
(31,849 posts)8. Thank you ...
So all of a sudden Woodward plants these little seeds of doubts about Dems saying "And down at the White House, they very much want to do that." (ie: raising the Medicare age).
It amazes me that many are so distrustful of the media, Woodward included ... until it fits into their (anti-President Obama) narrative; then that previously distrusted media is promoting truth.
