"The U.S. president said he did not take seriously Ahmadinejad's call for him to apologize for criticizing Tehran, "particularly given the fact that the United States has gone out of its way not to interfere with the election process in Iran.""

Why a slip of the tongue? Obama has in fact been receiving flak at home for appearing to stay neutral and not supporting the protestors' cause (only their right to protest).
I was intrigued by the phrase "the United States has gone out of its way not to interfere with the election ". Does it mean that ther were in the habit of interfering?

Sorry; I guess that you answered my question. But still for a president to say that openly seems surprising.
