I don't think it is a gaffe; I think that when the sentence is read to the end, including "and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea", she's making it clear that the idea of "extermination" is a mistaken idea.

*Huh, ok. I get it :)

When selected quotes are rhetorically reframed in an attempt to make Sanger look less culpable, you do not demand a link to a documented citation, but when selected quotes from Sanger are incontrovertibly damning, then the demand for a documented citation is requested - and then rejected because it comes from a cite which opposes abortion.

Remind me, sister..when a citation is rejected because of its source, what is that logical fallacy labelled?

Happy researching, sister. I don't have to do anymore. I got the answer I was looking for :)

I didn't question that one because, unlike the others, I have seen it before and have seen the entire letter. It is not because of its origin.

Please do not use the term "sister" when referring to me; there is, fortunately, no possibility of any familial relation between us. Thanks. :)
