WOLF BLITZER, CNN: You're used to this kind of stuff, but share with our viewers what's going on between you and the White House.

BOB WOODWARD: Well, they're not happy at all and some people kind of, you know, said, look, 'we don't see eye to eye on this.' They never really said, though, afterwards, they've said that this is factually wrong, and they -- and it was said to me in an e-mail by a top --

BLITZER: What was said?

WOODWARD: It was said very clearly, you will regret doing this.

BLITZER: Who sent that e-mail to you?

WOODWARD: Well, I'm not going to say.

BLITZER: Was it a senior person at the White House?

WOODWARD: A very senior person. And just as a matter -- I mean, it makes me very uncomfortable to have the White House telling reporters, 'you're going to regret doing something that you believe in, and even though we don't look at it that way, you do look at it that way.' I think if Barack Obama knew that was part of the communication's strategy, let's hope it's not a strategy, that it's a tactic that somebody's employed, and said, 'Look, we don't go around trying to say to reporters, if you, in an honest way, present something we don't like, that, you know, you're going to regret this.' It's Mickey Mouse. (The Situation Room, February 27, 2013)

There's some truth to both these statements but if what Woodward is saying is true it is a very knuckle-dragger like approach for a supposedly progressive and enlightened administration. Attempting to intimidate the press is a serious issue.

WASHINGTON — Bob Woodward isn’t the only person who’s received threats for airing the Obama administration’s dirty laundry. It seems anyone is a potential target of the White House these days – even former senior members of the Clinton administration.

A day after Woodward’s claim that a senior White House official had told him he would “regret” writing a column criticizing President Obama’s stance on the sequester, Lanny Davis, a longtime close advisor to

President Bill Clinton, told WMAL’s Mornings on the Mall Thursday he had received similar threats for newspaper columns he had written about Obama in the Washington Times.

Davis told WMAL that his editor, John Solomon, “received a phone call from a senior Obama White House official who didn’t like some of my columns, even though I’m a supporter of Obama. I couldn’t imagine why this call was made.” Davis says the Obama aide told Solomon, “that if he continued to run my columns, he would lose, or his reporters would lose their White House credentials.”

You can do that with anyone that has a seal of office posted behind them.

Yes, but would they all have facial expressions that indicate narcissism, arrogance -- and a messiah complex?

Possibly.

Well, you probably won't see any of that from The Decider in Chief.

Bush has been out of office for more than four years.

That's pretty typical of you Obamabots. Any criticism of The One, elicits the "b...b...b...b...but Bush" response.

I'm not an "Obamabot" and the reverse can be said about Republicans. Republicans still bitch about Clinton. My point is that you can find a picture of anyone with a circular seal behind them and photograph them to make it seem like a "halo" and put the messiah complex on them. It's ridiculous. Now, if you used this fellas policies, his actions, i'd agree. Messiah complex? Yeah, maybe when the US murdered a citizen w/o due process. But a picture? C'mon!

Just one murdered U.S. citizen? Oh, you're not talking about Benghazi.
