How's this for "Gun Control"?
"According to http://www.casualties.org , there have been 88 hostile fire deaths caused by firearms since the beginning of hostilities in Iraq. The remainder of coalition deaths have been due to explosives or accidents.
What does this mean? If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in theater during the last 22 months, that gives a firearm death rate of 55 per 100,000.
The rate in DC is 80.6 per 100,000. That means that you are more likely to be shot and killed in our Nation's Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.
The conclusion? Under the policies of the left, we should immediately pull out of WASHINGTON, DC."
LMAO!!

Hillary Clinton Inducted into the Women's Hall of Fame
What? Why? No one really seems to know... at least it's not specifically mentioned in this article on Fox News, other than those inducted are "women who have made valuable contributions to society and especially to the freedom of women".
The day that I consider Hillary Clinton a woman who has made valuable contributions to society... it the day that I transfer to the University of Texas.
