My points are this.RussellK wrote:Those quotes came from his newsletter. He may not have written them but he did sign his name to them. Try to disavow them as he might he's going to have a tough time distancing himself. I see it like this. Someone makes an offensive statement in your kitchen. At that point those are their words not yours. You then alow a yard sign with the same words. Still their words but you've now attached yourself to them. Am I using a faulty logic?
1) What is being claimed as in the letters may be inflated, or outright misinterpretation.
No ones seems to being able to produce what is actually in the letters to support what the media is saying or calling him. So first I would like to make sure or see if it is even correct to call the letters what they are calling them.
2)Then, there is the neglect of allowing them to go out in his name.
In your yard sign example it would be as if he did have the sign up for a short spell 10+ years ago, but then realized what was on the sign, took them down, and says he didn't write them and didn't know what was on them. That is what he is saying. He didn't read every letter, so that would mean he didn't read what was on the sign. But the sign has been taking down for years. I forget the dates but he rejected them when he ran for office many years ago, so it would be like a sign got put up without him knowing what was on it, but he throw the sign out as soon as he found out.
Did I understand your example?
