”She is Pro Life - Pro 2nd Amendment ”

I’ve read she has 100% rating from NARAL. D+ from the NRA and a D- from GOA.

Surprised to learn she is a Democrat since most of these types of assaults come from the left. But I see she is more of a DINO. Head shot at close range is very bad news. Prayers up for her, her loved ones, and for all the others who were shot.

I think we all know who the MSM will blame for this.

NEWS STORY: In the midst of the violent anti-government pronouncements of the Tea Party movement that has captured control of the Republican party .... an innocent Democratic Congresswoman was shot.

By rat standards, she isn’t that bad and comparing her to Hitler at a time like this is idiotic and hard-hearted.

She’s no more pro-life or pro-gun than Kirsten Gillibrand.

Fox News says her condition is stll unknown but other outlets like wiki show her deceased.

I think it's wise to always consider anything from Wiki with extreme prejudice. I pretty much skip past anything citing Wiki as a "credible" source. It has zero value.

I clicked on the link and read some of the posts. Frightening how many are immediately assigning this to Palin and Tea Party folks. We really have to stay frosty and value and fight for Free Republic and the internet, because it's one of the few places we can communicate.

If Fox had it right, and she is gone, assassinated ... Quothe Bette Davis:
