You’re right, sometimes they let things slip, sometimes they’re franker than they’d like to have been, and sometimes time obscures what was plain in the past. It’s just that as a general rule I don’t go to what politicians say, especially in prepared speeches, to learn what their policies are about. I’ve learned this from a lifetime of listening to them make no sense.
