Subj: Quote of the Day



Quote of the day by Dianne Feinstein



Dianne Feinstein: "All vets are mentally ill and government should prevent them from owning firearms"

Yep, - she really said it on Thursday in a meeting in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. . and the quote below from the LA Times is priceless.

Some times even the L.A. Times gets it right.

Kurt Nimmo: "Senator Feinstein insults all U.S. Veterans as she flays about in a vain attempt to save her bill."

Quote of the Day from the Los Angeles Times:

"Frankly, I don't know what it is about California, but we seem to have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office. I'm not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine, even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to Washington, we're Number One. There's no getting around the fact that the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Maxine Waters, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on 'Macbeth'. The four of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words."

-- Columnist Burt Prelutsky, Los Angeles Times

Snopes and TruthOrFiction say its fake.

http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors...stein-Vets.htm

Here's the actual quote and video: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/vid...apons_ban.html

Still pretty crappy and insensitive, though.

Disclaimer: I extremely dislike Feinstein.

I scoffed at the quote initially because there was no mention of Sheila Jackson Lee, even though she's from Texas.

...my english isn't all that good, but the 'real' version of what she said is pretty much a happy to glad translation.

Her voters deserve her, its just too bad the rest of the nation must suffer such fools.
