re: #39 Gus

Sheesh:

“You’re focusing on a few specific trees that give a very wrong impression of the forest. But perhaps we will just not see eye to eye here. … I think you will regret staking out that claim.”

That is completely different from how Woodward spun / paraphrased the e-mail in his CNN interview. At this point, it’s hard to believe he’s not intentionally trolling the WH, injecting himself into the news and being a more-than-willing RW-prop.

Politico has more. white House aide to Woodward: “I think you will regret staking out that claim.” That’s what has him upset? Seriously?
