Drudge has siren up on Woodward Book

[RamboLiberal]

Forgive me DU'ers for I have sinned by posting Drudge - but this sounds good. I'll post it all so you don't have to sully your PC's by clicking the link. Last line - ROFLMAO - aren't you glad the grownups are in charge!

ALL BUT ONE SOURCE ANONYMOUS: Woodward interviewed 75 of the people who helped prepare for the attack on Iraq, including President Bush - the only individual who speaks for attribution in the book, PLAN OF ATTACK... MORE...

WOODWARD: CIA thought Saddam had been killed before the ground war even began...

WOODWARD: Foreign dignitary was told of the plans to attack Iraq days before key Bush cabinet members were briefed...

WOODWARD: Top administration officials now barely speak to each other...

1. "Top administration officials now barely speak to each other... "

that one is obvious...they can't even get their lies straight.

[Lex]

2. When this book comes out, no one will step forward

to defend *Bush and his Administration anymore--at least anyone who is an elected Republican. I bet Smirk or Rove can't get many of their good ol' boys in the Senate and the House to take their calls much anymore.

Only the crazy shills like Coulter and Rush will defend them.

The rats are leaving this sinking ship, I believe.

Just watch.

[Catherine Vincent]

25. Repuke rats will never jump their ship.

They rather drown with the babbling idiot.

[Lex]

26. well, that will be fun to see

pass the popcorn

I would love to see a Dem majority in the House and Senate and be able to attribute it to *Bush and his arrogant Administration turning the country against them for a while.

[Jackpine Radical]

28. Or maybe the ship is deserting a sinking rat.

3. i hate Drudge

He such a tool....developing.......

4. Excerpts start in WaPo Sunday

Another book investigating the Bush administration's war planning efforts will be out soon, USA Today reports. Plan of Attack by Bob Woodward is due to be excerpted in the Washington Post on April 18. That night, Woodward will also appear on CBS' 60 Minutes.

The book is "being touted by the publisher, Simon & Schuster, as a 'definitive ... behind-the-scenes' account of how the White House planned and managed the Iraq war. Two White House officials said they are concerned about the book, which they expect will reveal internal disagreements about the decision to go to war."

5. Thanks for reminding me of the WP excerpt

Sunday edition - correct? Which means it should come up on the WP website sometime Saturday night.

8. With these kinds of books coming out Kerry doesn't need to spend 200 mil

Kerry can sit back and let things take their course for a while. The daily news is better than any ad his campaign could come up with.

[DoYouEverWonder]

11. I agree

the best thing for Kerry to do is stay on message and let these guys dig their own graves. As long as he doesn't do anything really stupid between now and the election, it will be a landslide.

[Kahuna]

24. Yep. Isn't it lovely.

:D :hi:

[aquart]

6. Did Bush think this was going to be a puff piece?

[central scrutinizer]

7. did butt-kisser Woodward develop a conscience?

maybe he regrets his sycophantic drivel in "Bush at War" and doesn't want to be seen as a spineless, uncritical shill.

[Davis_X_Machina]

9. Woodward is, and was, and alrways will...

...be a spook first, and anything else second.

When Bush became a threat to the Intel community, Woodward changed his position...

[fearnobush]

16. Precisely, the spook community likely has a * on *.

One name sums all: Valerie Plame.

[Soup Bean]

14. "Bush at War" was pretty worshipful, all right.

BUT, Woodward said a lot of the things that Richard Clarke is saying now in that book. Especially interesting were the quotes attributed to Rumsfeld right after 9-11, wanting to hit Iraq.

It didn't raise much of a stir when Woodward said it back then, although I wondered why it didn't. I guess everyone was still shell shocked.

10. Drudge replaces Siren with this Bushie photo

The camera sure isn't kind to the Chimp.

[LoZoccolo]

12. Hmmmm...

That picture makes him look like his father more than I think any I've seen. Maybe it's compressed horizontally a little?

[DoYouEverWonder]

13. Even his face flip flops

The left side goes up and the right side goes down.

[Rockholm]

21. Looks like he's clinching his jaw from too much coke

[PfcHammer]

17. maybe he can go on the queer eye show & they can perty him up

[Screaming Lord Byron]

15. Hmmm, I think we all know who the foreign dignitary is, don't we?

Here little poodle.

[RamboLiberal]

18. You're probably right but isn't the poodle too obvious

Wonder if it could be Bandar or King Fahd?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

19. One of the Saudi's makes perfect sense, of course.

Of course, Blair would have to have some lead-in time due to the military aspect, but it could well have been a Saudi.

[librechik]

23. my guess: Bush cuddle-mate Bandar n/t

[Killarney]

20. How are they going to smear Woodward?

His previous book was all pro-Bush. What are they going to say... he's a liar?

I can't wait for 60 Minutes.

This week rocks.
:toast:

[RamboLiberal]

22. 60 Minutes - I can't wait either and looking for to WP excerpt

I'm hoping CBS runs promos tonight during the Evening News or Survivor.

[carolinayellowdog]

27. They are going to call him a flip flopper

and say that if he changed his opinion of *, that proves he's untrustworthy. Then they'll say he's motivated by greed. Then they'll out his wife as a CIA operative?
