Now if only Woodward & Bernstein would either confirm or deny.
Seems Woodward all but did if you read that. :)


But, if Felt's health is as precarious as it seems, it won't be long.

And here I thought it was Rehnquist or Poppy. I still think Poppy had something to do with it to setup a run for President, himself. Conspiracy theorists will take it further and take the link between the Bushes and the Hinckleys to say Poppy was behind the Reagan assassination attempt.

I heard Bob Woodward give a lecture about 2 years ago here in DC where he addressed all this and again repeated that he will hold it a secret until the source dies.

Very interesting developments...

This means a lot to those who were accused of being deep throat, but denied the accusation.

except the part where B tells his dumb kid who babbles at camp :Q
