So what you essentially have is a disagreement over style.“He felt that his whole life was a kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.” - Douglas Adams.

At least one example right in front of your eyes. The quotes in quacamoles post carry with them a very different characterization of Barrs summary tgan the quote you used in response to it. Holding one out over the other as if one has meaning and the other does not is a mischaracterization of the situation. Both must be weighed together to deal fairly with the true picture of what mueller is saying about the Barr summary.

Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostIt's been stated over and over. Mueller was concerned that the press was misrepresenting his findings, and Barr's summary wasn't doing quite enough to preemptively cut that off."Down in the lowlands, where the water is deep,

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostThe may well both be valid quotes. But they are contradictory...
"...did not fully capture the context, nature, and substance of this Office's work and conclusions..."
"...neither inaccurate nor misleading..."
There is no contradiction between these statements.
What it really sounds like is that the dirty cop and his goon squad were not happy with Barr's "just the facts" summary that didn't try to imply that Trump was guilty despite lacking the evidence to charge him.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
