"Leaving out information about the circumstances that led them to do so would be a lie of omission." LOL. I have to give you credit. You do go to extreme lengths attempting to come up with preposterous excuses that sound as if they are applicable. Uh, leaving out the circumstances? There is a WHOLE section, the LARGEST SECTION of the entire article, about what led to West's retirement. And uh, as far as "Would it be right for the introduction to Richard Nixon to exclude all mentions of Watergate, and just say Nixon decided to retire one day in 1974?". Uh, I don't recall it saying West just decided retired at the top of the article. Sorry bud, you're not dealing with high school dropouts here. It's pretty easy to see through rubbish.
