So, I guess we know who the hypocrites are.....how do you feel about that lefties?

And yes I'm talking about you on the left....

An official told the Richmond Times-Dispatch that Gus Deeds underwent a mental health evaluation Monday at Bath Community Hospital, which was performed under an emergency custody order.

Dennis Cropper, executive director of the Rockbridge County Community Services Board, told the newspaper that Gus Deeds was released later that day because no available psychiatric beds could be found in Western Virginia.
