I love Gabbie and I wish her all the best in her recovery. She is just beginning the transitional phases of her recovery and her doctors should be able to determine how much speech and other abilities she has lost. Brain Injuries are ALWAYS tricky and I am absolutely astounded that Gabbie has made as much progress as she has. It is a testament to her tenacity, courage and the skill of many doctors that she is still alive.

Give 'em hell Gabbie!! Show 'em what an Arizona girl can do!!!

I voted for Gabby in the past and believe she did a great job prior to the shooting. If she is healed enough to continue to represent us, then I would like to see a video of that, not a video of work prior to the shooting. I would vote for her again if she can do the job. However, if she can't do the job by this point, it is doubtful that she will improve enough to do it in the future, and she should step aside so that we can be actively represented. The nation is at a critical juncture.

I miss how she looks before she was shot. But she is still beautiful though

@CorkyfromAZ Do you know how much of the speech impediment is permanent?

@briskyhmoob What a crock! What is the meaning to own a weapon, if not to kill?

[reinzizi]

Americans talk a lot about God and faith. They are outraged because of a half-naked woman, but say YES to weapons. This is double standard of morality. Unfortunately, I know very well, what I'm talking about.

I wish you, Mrs. Giffords, a quick recovery and all the best. Then go back into politics and work against the weapons.

With best regards, reinzi from Switzerland, where, unfortunately, many people think they have to have a gun at home.

@runsaber1 And terrorist are right wing nuts. Very very far on the right. I don't think you want to take the nazi analogy that far. Read a book or check the testimony of those who survived that horrible era before spewing nonsense and making comparison between the worst regime the world ever saw and anything we have in the States. It is not only immoral, it's downright stupid.

she's a hottie

[runsaber1]

@briskyhmoob um. nazi is the acronym for German National Socialist party. socialists are far lefties. like Elizabeth Warren; she's a democrat. the rampant jew hatred comes from the democrat party too. just check out any one of their Occupy Wall Street protests. it's non-stop there. btw OWS is the reason Democrats lost NY-9 to republicans. the jews now see that the democrats are Anti-Israel/anti-jewish. and they see republicans are pro Israel. :D even 0bama's policies are all anti-israel
