Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) Returns to House Floor for 1st Vote Since Shooting
StandwithArizona.com ^ | 08-01-2011 | John Hill

Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) has just come to the U.S. House floor to cast her first vote since the shooting, in favor of the debt ceiling "deal", which has just passed. She entered via a wheelchair, but was last seen standing on her own accord after the vote completed. We wish her well.

This certainly answers questions about whether she would serve or resign. Let's hope that her post-recovery career is less in line with the disgusting Raul Grijalva and her buddy Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and more in line with the people of Arizona, on SB1070 and illegal immigration.

‘Let’s hope that her post-recovery career is less in line with the disgusting Raul Grijalva and her buddy Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and more in line with the people of Arizona’——

She just showed up for the biggest debt hike in American history.

Does that give a clue?

Glad she’s back on her feet and can vote, but I dislike the fawning over her vote that sucks.

And all those wazoo apertures who preached that the rhetoric post shooting was so inflamed have been all over TV in the past few days using the very inflamed rhetoric to demean Republicans, and the Tea Party. Hypocritically ironic.

‘She just showed up for the biggest debt hike in American history.’

In other words, she voted in agreement with nearly 3/4 of the GOP Congresscritters and against 1/2 of the Democrats.

She voted the way Pelosi wanted her to vote.

As always.

If and when she runs for re-election her brain damage will be obvious. On the other hand, there are brain dead people who get re-elected.

It is wonderful that she has made so much progress. We will know that she has recovered completely when she changes parties.

Glad she’s able to come back to the table, just sorry her first meal has to be a crap sandwich.

The only way to tell her from the rest of the Democrats
is that she has surgery hair.

And she returned on the same day Biden said the Republicans were holding a gun to the Democrats’ heads.
