Bob Woodward - Stealth Author/Reporter?
Interesting turn that Bob Woodward has taken, of course. So, he's sounding more like himself from the old Watergate days with his new "revelations".

I just wonder if he may have had this in mind all along. I wonder if he was really prescient about where the Bushies were taking this country, wrote his first Bush-friendly book to get in good (and inside) with them, only to turn when the time was right (when he had learned enough) and KAPOW ...BushCo Revealed!!!

I like to contemplate the prospect that this may be so mainly because I like the idea of someone using treachery against their treachery, I suppose. And, of course, it would go a long way to restore some of my erstwhile esteem for Bob Woodward.

Anyway, just a thought. :think: :evilgrin:

1. i think it's all about access and book sales
he can afford to be critical now because he no longer needs access. if he writes a negative Bush/republican book now it set him up for access to a future Democratic administration.

2. Well, that certainly seems to reinforce the "stealth" aspect...
