Nope. That was not his words either. The site to which you refer therefore is not a reputable source. This is a small part of a very long sentence in a letter. Therefore, not only are the words incorrect, but proper grammer has not been applied to indicate that there was more to it. And unless you take these piecemeal words and put them in context, they really have little to no value unless the meaning of the words are plain on their face and which I can clearly tell you is not the case having read the entire letter.

This is very similar to the soundbite tactics with political advertising which nearly always ends up giving a completely different meaning than the speaker was intedning to convey. I pay littel attention to those unles it sounds importatnt to me and then conduct the research to see what was actually going on. McCain and Obama have been particularly maligning in this respect which is quite shameful on both their parts although I have found Obama to be more guilty of this. It is like he says he wants to give oil companies tax breaks. He has no specific legislation to do that. Obama takes the tax posiiton and then applies it to a unique industry and says that McCain wants to give that particular industry a tax break. We do not get to see the information used to derive the numbers or the data from whcih the information was taken from nd so tht ends up being completely useless and slanted misinformatin with absolutely no value in reality.

Rather than just take the first thing tht flies at you, why not try to find the original sources or in the least reputable sources. I have gotten to the point wehre it is clear that nearly ninety percent of the stuff floating out on the internet is completely useless and if one wants to blindly accpet that, then they can choose to be made the fool. However, if one wants to know the real story, they have to take the extra time. As quotes can be taken out of context right here at miyard, so goes it in the real world. The information age has turned into the misinformation age and the amount fo false information clearly shows the underlying problem today...a complete lack of ethics and absnece of good character.

I have no opinion of your other "quote" as it comes from an unreliable source.
