Conservatives in Search of a Context

[bcholmes]

Y'know, it's like Cheryl Gallant all over again: Federal Conservative Brian Pallister, in his attempt to be vague about whether or not he'll jump over to provincial politics and run for provincial leader of the Manitoba Conservatives, said, "I am copying what's known as a woman's answer [...] It's a sort of fickle kind of thing."

Of course, later he said that his comments were taken out of context. I'd like to understand exactly what kind of context makes that palatable.
