Woodward Claims White House Threat

By Ross Kaminsky on 2.27.13 @ 10:52PM

[Update: Even though I still enjoy the “threat” headlines, the details of the e-mails at issue in this story make Woodward’s claim of being threatened seem overstated.]

[Update 2: When you have a Chicago thugocracy, it’s not surprising that more stories of threats start to percolate out, such as from former Clinton aide Lanny Davis…]

Ain’t it just grand to see the Obama administration pick a fight with a well-respected (but still quite liberal) reporter?

This bunch of petty tyrants in the White House is looking more like who they really are with each passing day. The question is when most of America will realize it. The answer to that probably has something to do with when the media starts telling the truth.

Picking a fight with Bob Woodward seems like an especially stupid move for an administration which relies on the media hiding the administration’s true nature, but par for the course for a government filled with bullies.
