Details of Bob Woodward's newest book were reported in Wednesday's New York Times
Bob Woodward's new book is coming out on Monday (the one with the bad cover art), and both the New York Times and the Washington Post have preview pieces today. You can read those stories here and here.

David Petraeus once referred to top Obama advisor David Axelrod as "a complete spin doctor," according to the book, titled "Obama's Wars." Joe Biden once called Afghanistan guru Richard Holbrooke "the most egotistical bastard I’ve ever met."  And national security advisor James Jones once called Obama's political aides "water bugs."
But what should we be talking about from the book?
