[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue is NOT whether Woodward was threatened.  The issue is that Woodward wrote an article that the White House did not want "out".
Everyone is now talking about the interaction between Woodward and the White House--not what Woodward wrote.  What Woodward wrote is contrary to the White House Talking Points.  That is why Sperling got angry.

A couple of weeks ago the White House was denying that sequestration was its idea--when Woodward said it was, the White House backtracked and even Jay Carney admitted that it came from the White House (I think it was Lew's idea.)  When Woodward said that part of the deal was that taxes would be off the table, it totally demolishes the White House position.

The fact is that Obama has gotten tax increases.  There are tons of taxes in the Affordable Health Care Act and the Republicans agreed to raising taxes on the higher earners a couple of months ago---but now, he still wants increases.
Read your history, every time the GOP agrees to taxes along with spending cuts, the taxes happen and the spending cuts disappear.  Is it any wonder they want a bill with cuts?[/quote]

The funny thing is, you don't even seem to understand why this is wrong.  Thought you were being disingenuous. I apologize.[/quote]
