Are you going to buy Bob Woodward's book 'State of Denial'?

1. I know the story already.

;)

But they say it's sure to be a major best seller.

4. I will read the book from the library - I've been burned one time

too many to support Woodward again. His last two books were just pandering to Chucklenuts and KKKarl so he could keep his cocktail party invites to the White House. He didn't mind ignoring the kids dying in Iraq or the trashing of the Constitution for his access.

He could include pictures of a naked Bush doing KKKarl on the table of the White House Situation Room with Falwell and Robertson diddling little boys in the background while Pickles downs shooters and Xanax watching. I wouldn't give him my money. He sold his membership card to real journalism a long time ago. That Chucklenuts is being burned by one of his "buddies" is just frigging justice.

2. WOW! Bob Woodward already finished his book about the Rep. Foley affair?

I guess it must be a real "page turner."

3. I refuse to enrich Bob Woodward after his a$$-kissing of Bush

in his previous books.

5. No.

I've read the excerpts in the paper today. That's enough.

I'm saddened at what kind of "journalist" Bob Woodward has become. This book doesn't atone for the basic Bush apologist Woodward is today. According to the article about "State of Denial" in today's Chicago Tribune, Woodward's last book was recommended reading at the White House. Jesus.

If he were alive today, I.F. Stone would be appalled at the kind of "journalism" Bob Woodward practices.

6. I will also read it from the library. There are just TOO MANY books

9. So far I'm the only undecided

I have been seriously thinking about it.

10. HELL NO.. he knew before 2004 that Rice blew off any

take about bin Laden before 9-11... That would have cost Bush tons of votes in 2004 IMHO...

[H2O Man]

11. Yes.

I tend to read a lot. It's one of 12 books that I now have on order. I will certainly post information, including quotes, on DU for those who are interested.

14. That would be helpful, thanks

I too feel burned by Woodward's book "Plan of Attack" --which I just threw in a donation box for the library book sale.

So I don't feel inclined to actually buy this one, though I'm glad if it gives some former BushCo supporters something to think about.

16. Thank you, I'd appreciate your thoughts

about this book after you have read it

[walldude]

12. I don't think so... I lost all trust in Woodward

I'll wait to see what other DU'ers say about it. I just finished Frank Rich's book "The Greatest Story Ever Sold" I highly recommend it.

13. I might buy it on half.com when I can get it for a couple dollars

which will be soon probably

[Jazzgirl]

15. Absolutely not.

If I decide to read it I'll wait until its at the library.
