"The tragedy of Iraq and the parallels of Vietnam continue unabated from one of America's most respected journalists. Confirms the incredible value of having people tell you when you are wrong, are at the very least, delivering bad news and objective analysis. In the end, time, history and veterans will not be kind.
"I've never thought that Bush was dumb at all," Levin said... "But I think he's intellectually lazy and I thnk he wants people around him who will not challenge him but will give him the ammunition which he needs or wants in ordr to achieve some more general goal." (P.416)
"There were four Woodward books focusing on the Iraq War and the Bush Administration, and this is by far the best of the four. (I did read the fourth installment "The War Within" before this one, coincidentally.) The descriptions of Rumsfeld, Rice, Cheney, and Powell are enlightening and in many cases, disturbing. And the overall mind-set, that the Iraq War was a defensive response to 911, among the civilian AND military leaders during the first six years of the new century is revealing and alarming. This might be my favorite Woodward book."
"This is another for the "listened to while driving" file, so all audiobook disclaimers apply. I think listening to this one actually made it a lot more boring: I gave up on keeping track of all the players at a certain point and that made large chunks of the narrative sort of vaguely puzzling. It probably would have helped to have reads parts I and II as well. All that said, if you feel like you want some new, hard, and damning proof that Donald Rumsfeld is a jackass, look no further! (Also good for hating on Bush, Cheney, and neocons in the general.)"
"I listened to this book on tape, in the car, over a period of weeks. If you want to better understand how things came to be as they are relative to US actions in Iraq,if you want to understand who the players were and why they didn't always listen to each other, why some remained silent when they might have spoken up, Bob Woodward's well researched book is a tremendous resource."
