Umm...Pistol Gripper...That 'speech' is an urban legend (

70RTDropTop: Interesting that Ms. Pelosi wants to disarm all law-abiding citizens, and she is 'on record as saying exactly that'. Please tell us where that is on record.
These 'straw-man' arguments are very counterproductive. (I could just as easily say that Bush wants to steal your children, and Giuliani wants to outlaw muscle cars...Those are also not based in fact, but I can repeat it until someone believes it)
As for me? Near as I can tell, peace and prosperity are better than war and recession. I don't need the media to tell me that - I see it every day, as more and more of my neighbors are out of work, and the death toll rises among those who sacrificed everything for their country.
But we probably ought not to delve too much into politics around here. Truthfully, I have to admit that I misinterpreted the original post - I thought it was making fun of Bush for being so detached from reality!
Old's Cool had it right, BTW.
