Bob Woodward: ‘Russian Dossier’ on Trump a ‘Garbage Document’
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/15/2017 7:39:51 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

When it comes to experience in evaluating the quality of leaked allegations, it’s hard to beat Bob Woodward of Watergate/Deep Throat fame.

So attention must be paid to what Woodward said on today’s Fox News Sunday about the so-called Russia dossier on Donald Trump. Woodward called it a “garbage document.” For good measure, Woodward said the intelligence chiefs made a “mistake” in briefing on the basis of the dossier, and should “apologize.”

I don’t think he has much to do with Carl Bernstein any more.

Bob Woodward continues to surprise me on the up-side. I guess he’s a liberal, but no matter. This guy is what a journalist should be.

Woodward called it a “garbage document.”

A positively Trumpian thing to say.

FWIW, Woodward has identified himself as a Republican in the past. He’s certainly not as liberal as Bernstein.

The Left doesn’t care if the accusations are true. They want them to be true and that’s enough. So, the Left’s elite will continue to send them liberal porn for their energetic enjoyment.

Thanks for posting.

While some of this whole story is truly funny, there is the other part. The part that brings up thoughts of real treason, attempted coup, divided loyalties of those who must remain loyal to the Constitution. ..

This entire spectacle beginning with Comey last summer has become a very dangerous moment for our nation.

Since the article references Pelosi and her atrocious comment about always wondering what the Russians have on Donald Trump...speaking as a Californian for 40 years, I wonder what the Russians, Chinese and Mexican mafia have on Pelosi. I mean, the woman doesn’t have the brains God gave a chicken. Brains and competence are not things she’s got going. So there must be some other reason why she’s managed to stay in office and a leadership position for so long. Just sayin...

I’ve been saying for days that these people, from McCain to Graham to Pelosi have a lot of nerve trying to make hay out of this. Who knows, they may even tempt some “hacker” to release their own “dossier.”

I think Woodward tells it like it is these days and he owes no allegiance to anyone.
That is why you get this refreshing statements from him that they reflect reality.

Woodward always seemed like a paleocon to me.
