Digby: "Get It Right This Time"

In the midst of all the excitement over the GOP congress's under-age cyberstalking, I hope that we don't lose sight of the other white meat --- Woodward's astonishing revelations in his new book "State of Denial."

Yes, Woodward is a court stenographer and his earlier Bush hagiography shows the extent of his fealty to DC insiderism, but that's exactly what makes this book so extraordinary. It's clear that the Republican establishment is feverishly cannibalizing itself from within. Not only is the story of infighting, ineptitude and bad policy compelling, it's especially interesting since it's being told by the Republicans themselves as they begin the work of ex-communicating the Bush administration from themselves and the conservative movement.
