Разъяснение слов Обамы

К прошлой записи.

Полицейским не понравилось высказывание Обамы, так что его представитель объяснил, как это высказывание следует правильно понимать. Отсюда:
On Thursday, the White House tried to calm the hubbub over Obama's comments by saying Obama was not calling the officer stupid. Spokesman Robert Gibbs said Obama felt that "at a certain point the situation got far out of hand" at Gates' home.
Еще раз.

Обама:
the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home
Гиббс:
"Let me be clear, he was not calling the officer stupid, okay? He was denoting that . . . at a certain point the situation got far out of hand, and I think all sides understand that."
Более clear и не скажешь.
