This would use "retirar" don't you think? Retira eso. Sort of like "withdraw that" - "take that back". Gracias.

Hola,
Yo diría:
retractar. (Del lat. retract?re). 1. tr. Revocar expresamente lo que se ha dicho, desdecirse de ello. U. t. c. prnl. 2. tr. Der. Ejercitar el derecho de retracto.

Mmm... no... al menos en España nunca jamás diríamos eso, usamos el verbo retirar. - tubowski, Jul 9, 2010
Se pueden usar ambos, "retractar" es más formal. - LuisaGomezBartle, Jul 9, 2010
I gotta get a copy of that. - jeezzle, Jul 9, 2010

Take back [4] (withdraw, retract.) retirar;
por ejemplo;
1 **You'll take back what you just said!
= í Retirelo que acabas de decir!**
2 I take it all back
= retiro lo dicho
