I guess it’s no different from pushing in drooling Thurmond or drooling Byrd in a wheelchair and holding their hands on a button and pushing it for them.

Emergency legislation to avoid an economy-rattling government default sped through the House Monday night ... The vote was 269-161

We're screwed.

She looked 50% of what she once was. She’ll never quit. All our Democrat rulers are lifers. They only leave when voted out or they die on the job.

Washington DC is addictive. It’s a non-stop party, no recessions. Everyone will kiss your arse like you are a god. And every maitre de in town will kiss your arse and find a table for you if you are a Senator or Representative

I’ll add that those who actually died were mostly ignored. If she’d been a Republican the story would’ve lasted 3 days. I still thank God for her recovery.

Watch the video! She walked in under her own steam and spoke to people.

Her totally unnecessary appearance was just what this dog and pony show needed.

you don’t think I know the details? good grief, I’ve been following this..

this is a 10 to 20 year fight.. it’s been 50 to 60 years of going the wrong way, and it ain’t going to change over night. our side appears, and I say this guarded..it appears.... that our side is making just a smidgen of headway.

Giffords’ reappearance was no sweat for the Dims .. they’ve been raising the dead at polling time for decades.

The only way substantive cuts are going to be made to this debt is that every last member of the Gimme Stuff Party is voted out of Congress. They and their Dem constituents have placed this country on the road to economic oblivion for the past 50 years.They care not a whit about the future of this country or for the children and grandchildren they have burdened with their selfishness and need for instant gratification...End of rant

Very true. Thanks for remembering them as well. No one should have to go through that. Ever.

We have Maxine Water, Sheila Jackson Lee, Patty Murray and Joe Biden in Congress.

Gabriell can out think any of those clowns so let her serve out her term and see how see does in her re election campaign if she wants to stay in office.

2013 is going to a bit different than 2009 and Pima county will get the representation they deserve.
