Bob Woodward's new book, his fourth on the Bush presidency, is titled "A War Within", and has as a central premise that Bush didn't lead the Iraqi war effort well, even the Surge. So even though the Surge is seen as a success, Bush is not given any credit for it. Not unusual for the Bush-hating media.
To put the book into perspective, here's a nice opinion piece by William McGurn in the Wall Street Journal. It's nice to see another angle to the story. As always, there are two sides to an argument. Unfortunately, our media generally sees only one side to Bush.
Another thing. You have to wonder why Bush keeps allowing Woodward access to him and the White House after all those things he's written about Bush. Maybe Bush really doesn't have anything to hide and wants to get the information out there, even if it is in the form of a hit piece.
