    Great Piece!

    I always hate getting on this late because it seems that the conversation at some point takes on a life of its own and I want to be back on the topic. I appreciate your writing so much because you always give voice to my fustrations. I want to respond to the writer who said " Where did this start?" If you think back to the time when there was a good oppositional press it was during Watergate. The two journalists most remembered from that time are Woodword an Bernstein. Just think of what they have become. Woodward joined the establishment and Berstein had a meltdown. Now he is back with a Clinton hating book in a vulgar attempt to make money.I think Woodword needs to be asked some serious questions about things he knew and held back from the public so he could cash in on a tell all book. These guys still get respect.
