This will be marginally more effective than Richard Clarke's Against All Enemies only because Woodward has written things interpreted as being in praise of Bush in the past. However, this work will not be read by many hardcore conservatives. My brother gave this to my dad for Father's Day and as my dad unwrapped it, my brother apologized and said, I'm sorry, Dad. I wouldn't have bought this if I had known it was anti-Bush. Yet by most accounts, this is a balanced look at the Bush administration's handling of the war in Iraq. Some people only seek confirmation of the views they already hold.
