hy·per·bo·le [hahy-pur-buh-lee] noun Rhetoric . 1. obvious and intentional exaggeration. 2. an extravagant statement or figure of speech not intended to be taken literally, as “to wait an eternity.”

That is as nonsensical as the Brady Campaign saying the only defensive use of a gun is to shoot someone with it.
