I wanted to avoid talking about elections

But can't.

OK, I won't talk about it.

I am confused. I've read the quotes from the interview that the article claims were edited out. Like the part that starts with "What I think is that smaller democratic countries that are invaded by a larger power is something for us to be vigilant against"... and further "It doesn’t have to lead to war and it doesn’t have to lead, as I said, to a Cold War, but economic sanctions, diplomatic pressure"... This was all over the news, no?

What's up with that?

Easy - someone is lying. If you look at the newsbusters site their political preferences are obvious. Their integrity is less so.

But such an obvious lie? I suppose they don't expect their readers to remember things from one day to the next. I wonder who is their target audience...

Political lies are generally obvious. They don't respect anyone, and for a reason. As for the target audience, I shouldn't like to say anything just here. If you know what I mean.

I understand :-)
Political lies are not always obvious, some people do it cleaner (with more respect and/or more brain involved, I suppose). Although, of course, a better job is not required if an average one does the trick :-(
