Jeanrobert Bastien,

You said "Once again I say the President should not "mention" such kind of incident which was out of context because the press conference was based only about the health care."

First of all, the president did not mention the incident, but rather was answering a question posed by someone in the audience about the incident.

I am NOT a languistic major or scholar, but the term "mention" here means as if the president chose to volunteer the information, and that was not the case.

I don't think the president would have ever talked about the incident if he was not asked the question about it.
