Bob Woodward, more than any other journalist, has had extensive access to George W. Bush, Barack Obama and senior officials in their respective administrations.\u00a0 He may have had the best front row seat in the world for observing these two Presidents in action.\u00a0 That makes the comments attributed to him in the following article very significant:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/bob-woodward-obama-sequester-white-house-reporting-price-politics-2013-2<\/a><\/p>\n

Woodward is walking where angels fear to tread.\u00a0 He is accusing President Obama of irresponsibly putting politics ahead of national security.\u00a0 He has challenged Obama\u2019s character.\u00a0 Republicans are terrified by the main stream media that responds so viciously to the slightest criticism of Obama. \u00a0\u00a0No major Republican or Conservative, including Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh or even Glenn Beck dare hint at this.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Woodward may pay a severe personal price for this, but the damage has been done. \u00a0\u00a0The main stream media cannot ignore this story.\u00a0 \u00a0President Obama has avoided scrutiny by the main stream media who has displayed a collective lack of curiosity regarding critical issues.\u00a0 Anyone who dared hint at a problem with Obama\u2019s character would have been crucified as a racist.\u00a0 Woodward has changed that.\u00a0 Now the questions must be asked.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think this is because Woodward is angry.\u00a0 I think this is because Woodward, who is in a position to know, has weighed Barack Obama in the balance and found him dangerously wanting.\u00a0 \u00a0I also think that Woodward senses a sea change among the Washington media.\u00a0 In recent interviews, both Candy Crowley and David Gregory pushed back against the \u201csky is falling\u201d hysteria from the White House.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 The Obama protective shield is starting to leak.\u00a0 There\u2019s a Woodward Wind blowing through our capital and it is wise to remember than an ill wind blows nobody good.<\/p>\n
