1. Our response: "Rice admitted to 1000s of mistakes in Iraq"
i.e. ignore her clarification, play the "1000 mistakes" soundbite till peoples ears bleed.

3. And you've lied thousands of times.
No credibility, Rice-a-phony.

they get pretty figurative too. Then they use the words thousands for tens of thousands, hundreds for thousands, lots for hundreds, some for dozens until the million become figuratively invisible.
