conservative movement. but karl rove gave us is clue. i once read a quote from mr. rove where he said once you think you have us figured out we change like chameleons and go in a different direction. my second comment is, a right wing supreme court ruled that large corporations could contribute to campaign advertising with no limitations. and it's a known fact that during the 2008 campaign most of obama's donations came from lower to middle class people like myself. we gave more than usual and in larger numbers. my question is, wasn't the supreme court ruling a way to put more corporate money into the 2002 republican campaigns and outdo donations made by average-income americans? >> guest: yes, you're talking about a case called citizens united vs. the federal elections commission. it's a very troubling decision, for me for a lot of reasons.

at one point i was flying to australia -- it's a long flight even from los angeles. about 17 hours. so i took the woodward/bernstein book along. and i had my laptop. and i pulled out everything that felt had given to woodward and bernstein, principally bob, and i found out half of it is dead wrong. i posted it on one of my articles at find law. so if you google -- if you google deep throat, find law, dean you can find -- they're all done in red. you can find out how much bad information he got. >> host: in fact, you only mention mark felt three times in this book. >> guest: right. >> host: but pat buchanan's name comes up. did you think it was him? >> guest: the only reason i thought it was pat buchanan is that was sort of a romantic interest. i think pat would have been a wonderful deep throat. i wanted somebody to have noble motives. and pat would have had noble motives. >> host: louise is joining us from pittsburgh, pennsylvania, with john dean. go ahead, please.
