This doesn't make sense; a statement exists once it's been made. A proposition exists whether someone's said it or not. For this reason I think upon further reflection that you're actually right; from a perspective of pure logic - her statement was either good or bad regardless of whether she stood by it. The fact that she didn't just provides a hint about which of those two it is, and I think the criticisms thus far have made it pretty clear that this is a bad statement of policy.
