Bob Woodward's Back-And-Forth With The White House Gets Even Weirder, As He Invites Obama And Others Over

"He's a peacemaker," Woodward said on CBS's "Face The Nation."
"I am in the business of listening, and I'm going to invite him over to my house if he'll come and hopefully he'll bring others from the White House — maybe the President himself. You know, talking really works."
Sperling, meanwhile, appeared across the Sunday show circuit — on ABC's "This Week," NBC's "Meet the Press," and CNN's "State of the Union" — in a public attempt to bury the hatchet.
The two had a disagreement over some of Woodward's reporting on the sequester, which led Sperling to push back and tell Woodward that "as a friend," he would "regret" what he was doing. On "Meet the Press," Sperling said he couldn't explain why Woodward saw it as a threat, pointing to the email correspondence between him and Woodward.
"His reply said, 'Gene, you don't need to apologize.' He said he welcomed my advice. So I can't really explain it," Sperling said. "All I can say is I hope Bob and I can put this behind us."
When host David Gregory asked him if he was at all threatening Woodward, Sperling said, "Of course not."
