The following is a cut and paste from the pages of
Memeorandum.com, a left leaning news portal
I use in building the daily blog here,
at Midknight Review. The point
of this post is this: with the advent of the
Bob Woodward's criticism of Obama’s Sequester Stuntsmanship, the major media is forced into taking a
second look at what this man [Obama] is doing,
at least in view of the Sequester.
No wonder Obama has threatened Woodward with “You’ll be
sorry for doing this.” Woodward is a
Big Government Democrat, but not an
anti-colonialist, not a radical. He really cares about this country and its
Constitutional foundations.
Because he is the man who brought Nixon down, his thinking is given great respect within
the Liberal community. His criticism is
a big deal, so big, in fact, that the media will not try to sweep it under
the rug -- and,
as you can see, they clearly have not.

Woodward at war
— Bob Woodward called a senior White House official last week to tell
him that in a piece in that weekend's Washington Post, he was going to
question President Barack Obama's account of how sequestration came
about - and got a major-league brushback.
