RW Payback: Keep your friends close, your enemies closer
Bob Woodward was and is being used...and he doesn't even realize it.

The RW has never gotten over Watergate. NEVER! As evidence of this, review the RW talking heads vilify Deep Throat after his identity was revealed. Bob Woodward, partly because of ego and partly because he felt he was going to use them was played like a grand piano by the masters.


His personal role in the CIA leak goes from being told confidential info by this administration in the HOPES that he would publish it.

He then repeatedly badmouthed Fitzgerald and the entire investigation in order to save his own butt and protect his sources.

Now, the big kahuna of these sources has given him permission to reveal the timeline and content of their conversation but not their name. By doing this, it confuses the public, gets the MSM squawking about how Fitzgerald said Libby was the first to reveal the name thus casting a negative on the entire investigation but, ultimately, it damages Bob Woodward.

By keeping Woodward close, they've given him the ultimate payback.
