I'm a student of rhetoric, the words we use to communicate ideas. The fact is that anyone who spends their career speaking for a living is bound to have a file of gaffes. Some are amplified because of setting in which they occur. I saw this and found it funny. This is hyperbole to the max. Nancy Pelosi claims that 500 million Americans a month are losing their jobs. There are roughly 300 million Americans in total. Like the "read my lips" pledge of George H. W. Bush or any of the words made up by George W. These things tickle me.
