This is a sad story but the truth is she is not capable to serve the citzens of Arizona.Forget democrat or republican if this was the average citizen they would have already been removed from their position.An elected official is no more important than the average citizen.If Washington had any integrity they would remove her but of coarse that would be political incorrect.Who is more important Gabby or all the citizens of Tucson???
uisignorant, you got your numbers backwards again (like most conservatives do). I know facs are confusing to people like you, but could you try to educate yourself a little better next time?
I hate to seem like a jerk but did anyone notice the </div> under the picture... great editing job CBS... and thank you CBS for hiring the visually handicapped as editors on the website
This was truly a story of love, hope, and perseverance. That is why it is such a shame that Diane Sawyer decided to politicize it by including comments about the tea party and Palin. It was disgraceful, and ruined a beautiful story for my wife and I.
let all see death has no power over gabreal...praise them both..for all believers and the most powerful effect of love protects those who believe in them.
You know the whole issue with her shooting and the events that follow are trajic.
how ever the part about the state running with out any one represeting it or the part abotu mark kelly saying "I have no intrest in running for the seat" is complete and utter stupidity.
I understand you need a level of respect for public officials, but on the other hand its irresponcible to just wait for her to recover and say if she is going to run for another term.
Wouldn't she have a moral obligation to say: hey you know maybeing getting shot in the head doesn't mean im the best canidate, maybe i should sit this next one out and try again later.....
If she was a conservative and in a coma, they would let her stay in congress until the 12th of never. And her face would be on Mt. Rushmore as a true American patriot. She survived an assasination attempt from a rght wing inspired wacko. She deserves the medal of honor and can represent my until her dying day. God bless you, rep. Giffords. You are a true patriot willing to sacrifice yourself for this counrty.
Since the 1980's the mantra in Washington - and the statehouses - has been cut, cut, cut. Public mental health care was one of the first things to go, including residential facilities. Today, those unable to function in society because of mental illness or dysfunction join the ranks of the homeless if they don't have family that can care for them - and no family is prepared to provide the kind of care that someone as ill as Jared Loughner needs. There simply aren't any alternatives left except jail - and that only *after* someone commits a crime. Instead, we spend more on defense as a nation than all the other countries of the world put together. The biggest threat to our national security comes from ourselves, not the outside: the cuts are destroying our economy, social fabric, educational system... our future. All to feed a military machine that eats 66% of our tax dollars.
