Quite true. I’ve seen the quote many times before by her opponents. It’s interesting that most leave off the first part of the sentence, which is at least factually correct and makes her look less like a nut, in and of itself.

Using a quote in this way is intellectually dishonest.

I would have to agree, and point out that the left does it just as much, if not more.

I agree that to use a portion in and of itself is dishonest, but that isn’t really the gist of the article.

The article itself doesn’t take on the merits of her quote, but instead deals with what she herself derives from it.

I think it is immaterial whether the quote is right, wrong or truncated with respect to her stated desire to be rotisseried and fed to other humans to make her point.

..and that's why I posted the entire quote in post #3,and it's also linked in the article itself!

Nothing dishonest that I see!
