Good for her. I didn't think she really looked like she knew what was going on, but that made her fit in all the better I guess.
Then why would anyone want her voting on things that affect this country? Its great she is recovering but does she really even know what she is voting on?!
I think it was the perfect moment to show up and provided much needed PR to the Democrats. I do wonder about how much she has recovered and if she wasn't pressured to be present. But, it is good to see her doing well.

After such a devastating head injury, I wonder what her cognitive level of functioning is. Is it high enough to understand complex bills, even with the help of assistants?
I know it is always joked about how stupid Congress is, but I am truly curious about her level of understanding. I haven't seen anything specific like relating it to grade level or IQ.
Seriously? You don't think that there were any motives with her showing up when she did? I think everyone here is happy that she has recovered the way that she has, but being that her office had not released any information and no one seemed to know she would be there today, it just seems a bit suspicious. We aren't bashing her, just the party she represents for taking advantage of her situation for this. Poor taste on their part when she has a long road ahead of her.
Why? Sorry that some of us give a damn about how things are done in this country. Just because this is a feel good story doesn't mean questions or concerns shouldn't be raised. I want these people to vote on something they can comprehend and understand. She had a brain I injury and she damn well better be fully aware and able to understand these complex bills and such before she is allowed to vote on them. Why should it be any other way?
Leave it to the RWNJs to sour a feelgood thread...
You people are unbelievable. Same losers who don't care if politicians even read massive life changing, country changing bills before voting for them.
You people have a lot of nerve to ever whine or complain about the state of this country after many of the things you let slide and even applaud. No wonder this country is in such a mess. Some of you really don't take things seriously enough.

Do you have inside knowledge about Gabby's mental state?
