Couple of gems in David Broder's WP chat session
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/discussion/2006/03/31/DI2006033101099.html

David S. Broder: As you can tell from the current White House briefing by Scott McClellan, the administration is having a hard time squaring the disclosure of the president's role in leaking informationm adverse to Ambassadfor Wilson with Mr. Bush's prior statements decrying the leaks of any intelligence information. The contradictions are glaring--and so is the damage to his credibility.

SNIP

Clearwater, Fla.: What is your opinion about Bob Woodward's comments last year about the Valerie Plame case ... When "all of the facts come out in this case, it's going to be laughable because the consequences are not that great."

David S. Broder: Subsequent events do not appear to be supporting that forecast.

1. And don't forget what Libby said about Woodward
He was the recipient of leaked classified material. Libby says that he was given it to boost the book that became Plan of Attack. Woodward is defending the leak he was part of.

2. Damage to his credibility? That was damaged beyond repair
long ago.....
