judith miller is a pulitzer prize-winning reporter. kirsten powers is a "daily beast" columnist and both are fox news contributors. what about it, judy, he didn't say he was not feeling personally threatened but it is inappropriate for the white house to behave that way to the press. >> this is striking a parental tone. bob woodward, word warrior as jon stewart called him, very source the white house. this one, bob woodward is one of the most experienced, tough-minded journalists around. when he chooses to take offense because someone yelledded after him for half an hour over the phone and apologized in an e-mail, believe it or not said, my bad, you can understand why he decided to take umbrage. on the other hand, he is a great marketer, and he has got a book out on the obama administration. he knows what he is doing. i think the reason this dropped, jon, is other people have company explained. ron fuornier, "national journal" sectiontive editor, you said, i finally cut off ties to one white house staffer because of his vulgarity. beca
