On the floor of the House, urging passage of the Resolution condemning the Tucson shootings (did we really need one?) Ms. Pelosi had the following to say:
"This resolution is a fitting tribute. It is a great resolution. Please, read it again and again. Carry those names in your heart. Remember, each of these people because, again, a tragic accident took lives, wounded people in the expression of ideas."
Tragic accident? Ms. Pelosi, are you sure you didn't mean "Emergency" or "Crisis" maybe? Perhaps you could have called it a "Man-made Disaster?"
By calling it an "accident" are you saying it didn't happen on purpose? Was it like an "accident" which might take place if the police forgot to put up a stop sign or traffic light? Oh... if we had been more proactive in stifling talk radio and right-wing rhetoric, and if we had banned more guns... it wouldn't have happened, so this was merely a 'tragic accident' caused by the government failing to protect us?
Just trying to wrap my mind around this pinhead's words... and wondering why the left, her strongest supporters, can even have the gall to criticize Palin, (or anyone not in an insane asylum), for their level of coherent intellect. This woman was a chicken bone and flight of steps off Airforce 2 from being the President!
