His full words: "The one opinion which I think is extreme, is represented by the NGOs who bang on about declaring water a public right.  That means that as a human being you should have a right to water.  That's an extreme solution."

And if you can show me where the word "not" is anywhere in that quote, I'll send you $1,000 in cash.

The quote in the thread title is a paraphrase that was taken from the article I posted, which I'm going to assume you didn't read, even though I copied and pasted it in its entirety.

But since you insist, I'll change the title.  Why you're trying to score points by picking at semantics is beyond me.

Falsely attributing a quote is more than just semantics, it's journalistic malpractice. If you did that while working for a newspaper or blog, you'd have been fired for it. You do not put things in quotes that a person did not say. It is an incredibly important distinction, because quotation marks have a fixed meaning.
