Former US Representative Gabrielle Giffords will visit Newtown, Conn., the site of last month's deadly shooting in which 20 first graders were killed. Giffords survived a mass shooting in her home state of Arizona two years ago...

The “journalist” I saw in Miami just said Giffords is a “gun control” spokesperson....

Really? Haven’t heard her speak too much.

All I see is a woman being exploited by the left.

You can count on the Dems to play the Victim card all during the Gun Control “Debate”. The Democrat Senators will call in parents/kids from Newtown,CT from the Shootings in Colorado...... NO Republican will have the WILL or HEART to oppose a bill when they are finished with the parade of sad stories. Boehner will Cave faster than ever and McConnell will be almost as bad.

I don’t care if she has security detail as long as SHE pays for it. She is no longer in the House and does not receive free security detail. Now if she decides to hire a detail I don’t care.

I don’t care if she has her own private security detail either, anymore than I care who owns guns in this country. But the media and the left have no problem publishing that information on private citizens who own guns in their own home. They not only demonize law abiding citizens, they put them at risk and operate by a double standard. That’s the point.

If the good folks of Newton have any pride and integrity they'll politely tell Gabby and all future dupes and exploiters like she and her handlers to stay the hell out of Dodge.

Wait and see, the dupes and exploiters who will soon be descending on the town like carpetbaggers will divide this town which is now united in grief.

The whole disgusting scenario will mirror how Obama, his ilk and his cult followers have divided the entire country. It'll mirror how skillfully Obama has just divided the House GOP and the GOP across the country, possibly beyond repair. Just like he divides us off from allies around the word.

Although he pretends to be the Great Emancipator, he's been the Great Pretender since he was first sworn in.

Now he's also the Great Divider.

Divide and conquer.....the evil one knows the drill.

giffords is yesterday’s news... leftists have already forgotten her. America only has a two week attention span. THIS is all about raising money and nothing else. I no longer have any sympathy for her. If she wants to be in the hot seat... let the woman feel the heat. Just because her eggs were scrambled by a crazy member of her ideology does not mean she gets to trash the Constitution. **** her.

Yes first it was the massive news media campaign (with the media's fake “fiscal cliff” bs) to get them to vote for a tax on the rich( which is marxism).

Now it will be a massive news media campaign to get them to vote for gun control, the media's stars :that school shooter, gabby giffords etc.

I’m surprised they’re not wheeling James Brady through at the same time.

Just what the CHILDREN need to move past this tragedy: a pimp of the election industry refreshing the event for them. It is analagous to someone picking at a scar of a running sore, keep it fresh Gooby!

The exploitation of Gabby by the left is nauseating.

Trying to get rid of ownership of "assault" rifles by everyone by using someone shot with a handgun by a mental case.

Typical lefty logic.
