* He heard John Dean was writing a work of fiction and decided that if he threw in a couple of interviews with the President, spun them around, and used the willing press as his tool, he too could re-capture fortune and fame.
Can we say "Press Secretary for the Kerry White House", or an official biographer of same?
Woodward (and that little jerk Dean) have had their 15 minutes. Must be something to fame, if you still lust for it 30 years after it's over.

Is that the same way you felt after his previous book about Bush about a year or so ago, presenting him as a resolute and strong leader in the Afghanistant conflict? Most people were mad at him for making Bush look so good. Now, conservatives are mad that he didn't remain their shill. So, how do you explain why he would write such a "nice" book about Bush before, given your belief that he is a liberal shill? Let me guess, the liberal conspiracy got him to write a nice book just so that when he wrote a less nice one, people would believe him?
