Bob Woodward's New Book, "State of Denial" Makes Headlines, Is Released Today

Besides his two previous books on the current administration, this new book is set to become a bestseller. Even before it is published, many politicians and people were making reservations on their copies. Woodward's account says high-level aides, first lady and others saw Rumsfeld as a liability. Woodward, appearing on 60 Minutes, Dateline, Today Show and other cable networks, did not hesitate to push his book. In his first two books, he was alledged to be writing well about the administration. In this book, he took a different turn. Woodward is saying that the president is getting isolated as his team has rejected advice to shift gears in Iraq before it is too late. The White House that requested advance copies of the book dismissed his reporting as "old news." The new book reports what White HOuse chief of Staff Andrew Card did. He suggested that Bush fire Rumsfeld and replace him with former Secretary of State, James Baker, after the November 2004 election and again around Thanksgiving 2005. No wonder Andrew Card did not last that long on the job. Rumsfeld stayed on the job. Andrew left. The book also gave details about how Rumsfeld appeared to have alienated key members and figures.
