Well, the original quote was rather out of context. They were using it as a sort of gotcha and once the full text is seen it puts it all in a new light.

I could say “Hitler thought jews should be exterminated”

Headline “Sharrukin says: ‘jews should be exterminated”.

The quote is factually true, but out of context, and therefore false. You can lie by telling only part of the truth.

I agree with your point about the post headline being a fabrication.

I enjoyed this comment after Politico's "correction""

Andrea Mitchell/NBC News Washington: According to my sources in Canada, 5 year old Sarah Heath coined the term ‘death panels’ on the playground during recess one day during the dodge ball game against the 7 year old boys. Amazing after all of these years that she can change her last name, but her rhetoric stays the same.
