Bob Woodward on 'The War Within'

This week renowned author and journalist Bob Woodward talks to Ward about 'The War Within,' his latest book about the Bush Administration and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. What's Bob's take on how President Bush has performed as Commander-in-chief? What about the generals in the Pentagon and various theaters? And what is this "secret weapon" he keeps alluding to?

This book is a GEM of a historial "report card" on the administration, done with their blessing, and with the active-participation of the Prez.

Woodward's #4 Books in the series will go down as an irreplaceable insight into the history of the last 8 years, and it is NOT a kind review.

Bob is great fiction writer, remember he interviewed Casey in the hospital where he had been comatose for weeks but when Bob asked him a series of questions with no one else in the room he woke up and talked for 2 hours.
I think he missed his calling maybe he and Obama could team up as the second coming

That Casey story has been a popular one, not true but popular. But it doesn't matter really anyway, since these books have been proven true, over and over and over, and over again. In fact, the people in power who sat down for the interviews over the course of months, including the Prez, have not disputed even one of them.

Of course, if there is any proof that they are NOT true, I'd sure like to see it.

I've seen a number of interviews of Bob Woodward over the past few weeks. He can back up every word he wrote, usually straight from the horse's mouth.

This is an extremely important book and everyone with an interest in how we got into this mess should read it.

I had a stinr put in my heart and the Hospital bill was almost $60,000 and my co-pay was only $535.00 which is good, but when my had a vetrectomy & cataracr surgery and it done in the Clinic and our co-pay was $913.00 There is something wrong in this picture. I called tri-care and their explanation is thatthe surgery is not in the hospital and the co-pay is 5% of Tri-care approved payment which was $3500, and my hoospital surgery is that since stayed ovenight tri-cares charges is only $531.00. So what do you think? When you have some kind of minor surgery make sure that yuou stay overnight in the Hospital so your co-pay is only $535,00. I hope congress will change this policy. I e-mail our congressman look into this maater for the benifit of our servicemen that serves our country, but I haven't got an answer from him.
