Meanwhile the democrat caucus group says voting for this is like having a gun held to your head. Heaven forbid if a republican had uttered such an inflammatory phrase. We’d be hearing about it for months.

Aww how sweet....notice how the media stopped reporting on how ‘well’ she was doing. We don’t know if she can read or understand the bill.

Doesn’t matter, it’s the headline that will wipe the biggest debt hike in American history off the headlines.

GIFFORDS IS BACK.

Forget the Trillions.

Did Biden call her a terrorist or Obama say she had a gun to the heads of Americans ?

U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords received a standing ovation as she entered the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives today to vote on the debt ceiling.

Wearing a blue suit and smiling, Giffords hugged colleagues as she prepared to cast her first vote since January.

The vote taking place today is regarded as the single most important vote taken this year by the House of Representatives. The congresswoman insisted on participating, her spokesman C.J. Karamargin wrote in an email.

Giffords has been following this debate closely over the past two weeks, her staff says.

“Like the vast majority of Americans, she is extremely disappointed at Washington’s inability to confront the debt ceiling issue in a timely and thoughtful manner,” Karamargin wrote.

Giffords’ office says the congresswoman will vote in favor of a bipartisan bill to avert economic crisis.

The 41-year-old congresswoman made her return to the nation’s capitol today for the first time since being shot clear through the left side of the brain in an assassination attempt in Tucson Jan. 8.

So glad to see she was well enough to come and vote in favor of the debacle! She may come to regret her “yes” vote!

She needs to be commended for her fighting spirit.

Did she say:
“We need to raise the debt ceiling like we need a hole in the head.”
There, I said it.

The capacity of a person who has migraines is questioned, though a bullet traveling through another one’s brain is not.

Welcome to Strangeland.

Only a congressman can get their brains blown out and apparently suffer minimal side effects, even return to work and cast votes within several weeks.

Demoscats know no shame. Next they will dig up Ted Kennedy, Paul Wellstone and re-animate them to vote.

I understand her vote was actually “toast,” but it was construed to mean “yes.”

I’m glad she’s doing better. It’s profoundly macabre of the Democrats to wheel her around like a prop, though. You have to pretty dead inside to use a seriously injured human being as marketing device.

Geeez. What a load. The commie ‘RATS are still out there confusing reality with a TV movie. Gaby’s big final scene. That’s a wrap! Go ahead and roll the credits Chuck! I wonder who will be playing “Gaby” in the ‘RATS’ movie version.

And the Marxist returns, proud and happy to vote for anything her puppeteer, Pelosi, tells her to. And definitely proud to vote FOR MORE taxes, any time, anywhere. Sent the rest of us peasants to substandard healthcare, all while she has received nothing but “Jaguar”-care.
