Good job, I must say, by Bob Woodward on “Deface the Nation.” The CBS no name host(ess), and other guest, Peter Baker of The Failing New York Times, were totally biased, boring and wrong (as usual), but Woodward was cool, calm and interesting. Thank you Bob!

He was downplaying the Trump impeachment. But he has had a noticeable pro-Republican tilt during Bush years and towards Trump as well compared to Carl Bernstein, John Dean and others directly involved in Watergate who have been criticizing Trump for years.

... need to see facts and evidence... but I thought he could read the Mueller report - and I know he knows the Trump crowd and how Washington DC operates. He surely knows the CYA and cover-up routines... I get the impression he's holding back.

Judges. He hasn’t given a shit about Republican corruption since Watergate. He’s the dolt who also said there was nothing to IranContra.

I have actually always enjoyed watching her on Face the Nation, and I just finished watching this segment and don't see any indication of bias on her part. She asks great questions, and I don't think she interjects her own personal opinions much.

45 is truly a POS. I hope the day comes soon where we can have a decent president again who doesn't feel compelled to resort to petty name calling just because someone isn't fully supporting him.

I don't understand how anyone can take him seriously. Its like listening to a bunch of kids on the playground. This is normal for kids. They lack maturity and their brains are still growing. Not normal for an adult.
