WASHINGTON (AP) — An intern who cared for Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords after she was shot in the head and the family of a 9-year-old girl who was the youngest of six people killed in the same shooting will sit with first lady Michelle Obama for President Barack Obama's State of the Union address.

Anyone know what the SOTU Show 2011 T-shirts look like yet?

[Oldexpat]

None of this would be happening if she had been shot by a left wing nut case.

[Bigtigermike]

They are being used unfortunately

More free t-shirts at the SOTU?

She was shot by a left-wing nut case!!

[truthkeeper]

But of course this isn’t political.

Of course it is all about can't we be friends, and the evil Republicans caused all of this.

Now where is that why can't we be friends song!!!

Why hasn’t this poor woman been replaced in Congress? She is currently unable to carry out her duty, and she may never be able to. Her district is now without a Representative, all because no one wants to bring up the obvious.

Unfortunately, I look for 0bama to trot Giffords out during the entire 2012 campaign. If all she is able to do is drool her endorsement he will be happy to use her as a prominent cog in his reelection machine.

This is somewhat off topic but after the shooting and Gabby’s remarkable recovery I thought of the: “survivor of an apparent lethal head would” and wondered...just wondered if this could be. Please accept my apologies if offended.

I hope he gets a suit that fits this time.

She was. The news in AZ was that he had been to a rally in 2007. He asked her a question. He decided her answer was too stupid and he turned on her. She wrote him a letter thanking him for his question and his interest. he wrote ‘die bi***’ on her thank you letter. He was a Left-wing nutcase who was fixated on her. But the rest of the country will never know it.

What did he do that makes him a hero? He did not step up and take a bullet.

Take about bills.....doctors had a helmet special made for the Congresswoman but her husband wanted one with a flag on it, so the doctor made sure that another one with the flag was ready the very net day.
Wonder how much that cost?

"What did he do that makes him a hero? He did not step up and take a bullet."

He's not a hero. Have you noticed the real hero, the fella with a concealed gun permit, who tackled the gunman, is never mentioned?
