Just close the damn thing already.

Seriously...

How come no one seems to be inquiring about the condition of Rep. Giffords? There were a total of 18 people shot...we haven't even heard about the condition of some of the others wounded.

Yet people are more interested in trying to pin opposing political viewpoints on the whack-a-doo nutjob who perpetrated this than actually discussing this tragedy.

Can you people put aside your fricking partisan bickering for one g*damn day?

I'm just sayin'.
Are you under the impression that I am a politician with a public platform and what hell are you talking about anyway???

Obviously you just needed to respond and had nothing to say in regards to the truth of my post.

On topic...my prayers go out to the Congrees woman and her family.

Wow, I was wondering how quickly the libs would start foaming at the mouth about this. *eyeroll*

Nobody knows jack about this guy yet, other than what has been posted on his YouTube account--though I realize you are all just dying to interpret and regurgitate it as you wish (for many here, that would be that he was a personal assistant to Sarah Palin). I couldn't tell you whether he was left or right and frankly, I don't think he was either. So far, all the vids do is prove he's a freaking paranoid schizophrenic at the very least. Looney Tunes. Nuttier than chinese chicken. Holy crap.

Obviously the kid was sick and I'm hearing he was a veteran as well.

His only favorite video was clearly another alias he used - the flag burning which would indicate he's from the other political side.

He's simply insane, off or on his meds. Listen to that song in his favorite video "Let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor.....nothing wrong with me, nothing wrong with me".

That right there was his inspiration. The guy was too incoherent really to have any real political agenda. I'm surprised he didn't take out some of those instructors at Pima Community College as he clearly had some weird thing against them.

Democrats and Republicans all loved Gabby Gifford ..

This senseless act of violence transcends all things political ..

It is my sincere hope that the Federal Government follow the letter of the law in this case, up to and including the execution of the shooter.

Exactly. Many families started the day a saturday with plans of enjoying the break from work, to have some fun. Instead they found a nightmare come true.
A congress woman has been shot. Agree or disagree with her politics she did nothing to deserve what happened. No one did.
