Nancy Pelosi - not too good with numbers

Let's see -- the population of the USA is around 300 Million. And 500 Million of them are loosing their jobs each and every month. Hat tip to News Busters for thes two YouTube videos:
Will Media Report Pelosi's Claim 500 Million Lose Jobs Each Month?
If former President George W. Bush said 500 million Americans are losing their jobs each month, do you think media would report it?

Probably every hour on the hour until all 300 million Americans had heard about it, right?

Well, during a press conference on an undetermined date, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Cali.) -- you know, the second in line for presidential succession right behind the vice president!!! -- said, "Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs."

Amazingly, she's made this same comment at least twice in the past month -- in front of cameras, mind you!!! -- without creating a media firestorm.
