Rather interesting to see how the "right-wing" commentators tried to defend themselves.
On one hand context matters, on the other it does not.
And I agree with the above posters that both parties statements, taken as a whole and in context, were being honest and their comments make complete sense.
However, this is just the start of "silly season" and as one of the comments in link said, people will just believe what they want to
and
pass it onto others who may think the same way.
