When she made her surprise visit to the House floor her right arm hung limply at her side and never moved at all. That she is still alive is remarkable and anything beyond that is a gift. I think the rats are portraying her ‘recovery’ as something that it is not.

More shameless campaigning from Barack the Kenyan. Since the Messiah reached out to her, I guess now we know that Giffords does not have a DUI.

I hope Barry at least had the decency to make the call from an indoor phone and didn’t give her the well wishes from the Golf Course......

It’s a “threefer” for them: It beats on Sarah Palin, gives them sympathy and beats the drum for gun-grabbing.

President Obama reached out to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords...

That should read "President Obama used Rep. Gabrielle Giffords..." Not all of AZ voted for the lady and those that did don't care that they have no representation other than her office help...the rest of us are and actually have been without representation. Everyone has prayed for her recovery and wish her well. Giffords should have at least publicly chastised Obama for suing her state over laws that ARE on the books and have been for years Giffords is not looking out for Arizona...she, Obama, and Holder do not want immigration law enforced.....Blue Dog Democrat? Not on your life.

Didn't B. Obama also call her family when she was wounded? What other victims has he called? Has he called the families of the border agents who have been killed?
