From what I've heard, John Kelly has said Woodward's book, (which supposedly takes the same line,) is full of lies and half truths which is part of the reason why I suggested that the NYT and Woodward were trying to bullshit this into something. Add to that the Media Resource Center saying that the Times has a "history of over-inflating" their sources and "not fact checking deep enough". Then we can add on top of that the Kavenaugh confirmation hearings started the same day this came out, distraction much? I'm sorry but it smells a bit to much like Comey's speech 2 point oh.

Actually, it turns out that Woodward has said that the op-ed should not have been published, here's a link to a conservative source so you'll believe me.  I'm not really sure what to make to the thing, but this is certainly not a high-water mark in the history of the New York Times.

The reason we never found out who Deep Throat is until way later is that he never made a single on-the-record statement.  This new guy wrote a public document that basically confirmed that the Trump administration is an omnishambles, which everyone has known for at least a year.  And he sets himself up as the savior of the republic by ignoring the President.  Am not impressed. The only thing I really get out of this is that the White House chaos alert level has been raised to neon orange.
