where does fault enter into it? -- nm - Reagen Oct 19, 10:49 7
- "if you didn't want my speech to be controversial, you shouldn't have awarded an honourary degree to a controversial politician" -- nm - Strongbad Oct 19, 10:50
- "If you didn't want X, you shouldn't have done Z." -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:49 5
  - but she never said 'it's all your fault." because for there to be 'fault' there would have to be something she thought was wrong. she doesn't think - Andie Oct 19, 10:51
  - yes, we're well aware of cause and effect. But her statement is the opposite of whiny. It's reaffirming her choice to make the speech. -- nm - Reagen Oct 19, 10:50 3
    - Exactly. It's her way of saying "Screw you guys...I'm standing behind what I said." -- nm - Jim Oct 19, 10:51
    - I think we are splitting hairs over nothing here. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:51 1
      - Hi, welcome to ST are you new here? :) -- nm - Beaker Oct 19, 10:51
Wait, what? She's not saying she was strongarmed into it. - musubi Oct 19, 10:48
she isn't exactly passing the buck, she's saying 'i still disagree with your choice. deal with it.' -- nm - Andie Oct 19, 10:47 1
- that's not how I took her remark at all. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:48
what story did you read? -- nm - Beaker Oct 19, 10:46 6
- the one in which she said exactly what she wanted to say. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:47 5
  - That's still not what you're saying she said. - musubi Oct 19, 10:50 2
    - I know. However she makes it sound as if she was forced to do it. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:50 1
      - i don't get that AT ALL. -- nm - Andie Oct 19, 10:52
  - OK...so she shouldn't of used her time to say what she wanted to? Maybe she should have had someone at the university vete her speech for her... -- nm - Beaker Oct 19, 10:47 1
    - not at all what I said. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:50
