It would be interesting to learn the motive for his attempt to join the US Military. Perhaps a ‘Fort Hood Wannabee’?

Then this: “He tried to enlist in the Army in 2008 but was rejected, said First Sgt. Brian Homme, who oversees Army recruiting in Tucson. Loughner was sent to Phoenix to take a test and physical, but “he was found to be unqualified,” Homme said.”

We can only imagine how this rejection played on his narcissistic mind - being so intellectually superior to all the lesser mortals in the Military.

Add the irony that the Congresswoman’s husband is serving in Afghanistan.

Add the irony that the Congresswoman’s husband is serving in Afghanistan.

I believe he served in Iraq but is now a NASA astronaut slated to command the next Shuttle fight.

The Congresswoman’s husband is an Astronaut and is in fact in training (although probably not anymore) for the next Shuttle mission.
