Oh yeah, it was very badly phrased. But he was on his way out of a party... and he's known to enjoy the odd glass of wine or three. And it *was* an insulting comment. But it was insulting to a reporter and his employers. Not to anyone else. That other people have taken offence isn't Ken's fault. It's just the standard kneejerk reaction whenever anyone "mentions the war" (in certain contexts). But more later when I've had time to finish my rant/article.
