36. It's too bad that someone's words can be so misconstrued. I
would have a hard time working in such a public field. You'd be walking on eggshells all the time with the way you phrase things.

I see this all the time with politicians lately. You can tell they are carefully weighing each and every word. They can't even speak like normal human beings half the time...they're afraid to, and rightfully so. The smallest slip-up can be used as a career-crushing sound bite. It's just beyond ridiculous anymore.

I'm glad Keith cleared this up on his show tonight. No one should have to sit by while their own words are twisted into the OPPOSITE of what they actually said.
