Bob Woodward: ‘Very Senior’ White House Official Warned Me I’d ‘Regret’ Attacking Obama Over the Sequester

Bob Woodward: Very Senior White House Official Warned Me Id Regret Attacking Obama Over Sequester

Appearing on CNN Wednesday, the Washington Post’s Bob Woodward said a “very senior person” at the White House warned him that he would “regret doing this,” referring to his outspoken criticism of President Barack Obama’s handling of the impending forced cuts known as the sequester.

“I think they’re confused,” Woodward told CNN host Wolf Blitzer. Woodward apparently went on to criticize Obama further over the sequester the same day he received the warning from the White House.

“It makes me very uncomfortable for the White House to be telling reporters, you are going to ‘regret’ doing something that you believe in,” he added. “It’s Mickey Mouse.”

CNN invited a White House official to debate Woodward on-air, but the offer was declined, Business Insider’s Brett LoGiurato reports. Video via Townhall:

TheBlaze’s Becket Adams has more details on the feud between Woodward and the White House:

Bob Woodward on Wednesday accused President Barack Obama of acting with a “kind of madness” in his handling of the automatic spending cuts set to take effect Friday.

[…]

He continued, turning his attention to the White House’s recent claim that spending cuts would prohibit it from deploying aircraft carriers to the Persian Gulf.

“Can you imagine Ronald Reagan sitting there and saying ‘Oh, by the way, I can’t do this because of some budget document?’” Woodward said.

“Or George W. Bush saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to invade Iraq because I can’t get the aircraft carriers I need’ or even Bill Clinton saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to attack Saddam Hussein’s intelligence headquarters,’ as he did when Clinton was president because of some budget document?” he added.

Woodward initially started his fight with the White House after he accused the Obama administration of “moving the goal posts” in its budget negotiations with Republican lawmakers. He also reported in his book, “The Price of Politics,” that the automatic spending cuts were actually Obama’s idea — and now he wants to avoid them at all costs.

      Mr. Woodward, it takes courgae to swim upstream especially when taking on the Regeime. Keep up the good work!! Keep telling it like it is!!! I admire you!!!

So the admin sent the goons to smoke him and any evidence of White House complicity. What the hell more do you need to know? Move the hell on to something more substantive.

      Obama is getting to sound like his mentor and confidante, Jeremiah Wright.

      With a few more obstacles thrown in his path to prevent him from getting his way, look for him to make a transition into another Calypso Louie, threatening people every time he gets frustrated.

      Well, my opinion is first that Woodward is getting a little senile. Have you heard him speak? No offense to older people – like me – he sound like he’s already had a stroke, and that’s not an insult. He speaks slowly and enunciates each syllable in a slow, odd way.

      But to my real point. Woodward says he is a “reporter.” He’s stopped being a reporter. When you go on the Tee Vee, and proclaim that sequester is “Obama fault” without acknowledging the way our government works and that this measure was passed by both the House and Senate with bipartisan support, then you’ve stopped being a “reporter.” You’ve become a pundit. An opinion person, not a reporter. When you create hypothetical situations, and then say this president or that would never have done this action or that, then you’ve stopped being a reporter, and drifted off into fantasy land. That’s not journalism, that’s opinion.

      Did you notice how he will not say who told him him he “would regret” his words? Why? You can’t say he’s trying to protect his source right? He’s slamming this so called “source,” and putting words into his mouth.

      Woodward may have once been a first class reporter, but now he’s a right wing pundit. Who talks very, very slowly and strains to articulate words; i.e. compromised in some way.

      I will concede this to the flaming meteor, the congress SHOULD have called the cards on the debt ceiling “agreement” that led to the sequester. This would have squarely put the ball in Barry’s court. That is why we do not need “republicans” but rather conservative (and libertarian) FIGHTERS who will push back and not fold or cave.

      What’s funny is all the goons jumping on the Jerk for stating correctly that the American Jew is an anti Christian cretin responsible for many of our country’s woes. They practically invented the porn industry, they pull most of the strings in Hollywood where violent video games and movies are shoved up the asses of our kids. They own the banking and stock markets where the life’s earnings of hard working Americans are flat out stolen. The only REAL Jews are in Israel, repelling the Muslim cretins. The American incarnation are only here to rape our wealth. Sorry if that hurts your feelings. But, like most stereotypes, they cannot be applied to all members of a group. But all get the same blame.

      Compare & contrast the above 2 statements one states the truth. The other is mendacious.

      ***

      P.S. Woodward is 69. Does that mean JZS/SendtheMeteors is around 69? SME’s post icon looks more like a 30-something tops. What the heck, SME lies about everything else. Well if SME is about 69 & they have say a heart attack, well the Obama death panels will say here are some pain pills, the undertaker will see you in the morning. Remember age 70 is the cut off.

      Obama isn’t bat sht crazy, the people who elected him are. That is a much scarier thought. Obama is a Master Manipulator …….plays the game like no other, plays the public like no other. That should scare the hell out of you……and he has the MSM on his side. . Our battle is a tough one.

      It will never stop until these rodents are chased down in the streets and grabbed by the **** from behind. Only when these criminals swing by the end of a rope by the dozens will the rest of the cretins get the message. But, we must not stop there. Every stinking last one of these commie bastards and their families must be relentlessly hunted down and exterminated with extreme prejudice. Only then will this country have a chance to survive.

      He is not crazy. He knows exactly what he is doing. He seems quite sane when you step out of your own ideology for a moment to understand his goals. Everything he says and does is actually in pretty good form when you know what his objectives are.

      The thing that has got King Barry’s thong in a bunch (Ewww) is that Woodward has Creds. He is respected. The man won the Pulitzer for cryin out loud. They will also have a hard time discrediting him on political ground, since his claim to fame was exposing the Watergate Tapes and bringing down Nixon who was A REPUBLICAN. The fact that he has received threats from the top tier at 1600 Penn. Ave. doesn’t suprise me at all. Hope he watches his back, and hope he still has it in him to do some serious investigative journalism. Nixon got hammered for doing the same thing that so many other Presidents had and have done, Obama is breaking new ground and you wouldn’t need to dig very deep to find crimes worthy of not only Impeachment, but imprisonment and quite possibly execution. Go get him Bob, show the MSM what a REAL journalist looks like.

      East,

      I am not so keen in the EPA. I do have some knowledge of OSHA & more respect for them. Although it seems insurance companies & litigation could do nearly the same thing & maybe better.

      I remember Carol Brownout (Browner) slapping 5 billion dollars of fines on a whole industry just because she could. Having worked in that industry, I knew there were no secret meetings on how to cause more pollution or cut corners or anything like that. It is hard to fight foreign competitors, satisfy European regulators & then to have a monkey like Carol Brownout on your back.

      THE WH had better back off. Moderate Liberals need to get involved and make the WH back way the hell off because this pendulum swing it going to blow out the entire LEFT wing…you have become so unreasonably radical and you cannot sustain this ridiculous manic spending and control grab much longer. Woodward is merely point that out.
      There is a limit to how much decent people will sell out. Evidently the B-tards in the WH hit Bob’s limit. Oh dear.
