She looks great. Wishing her continued success in her recovery!!
-
I'm glad for her and her family and hope for a 100% turnaround.
-
I'm going to echo both of your sentiments. She does look great, and I also hope for a 100% recovery.
(Can't wait to see the DUmbshits try to spin this into "hate" directed at her.)
-
Fantastic. So good to see that she is smiling. Prayer up for continued recovery. What an ordeal for her and her family.
-
Wow.
-
She looks terrific...that is one strong woman...best wishes for continued progress.
-
I bet her loved ones love to see that smile! God bless her.
-
Good for her! It's great to see she's made such a good recovery.
-
She's been through hell, but she looks wonderful. We can only pray that she gets back to 100%.
-
Just beautiful! What an amazing recovery she's made! Incredible woman! God bless her.

Well guys.... I just got banned for an extended period of time at the other conservative board, for saying this.... but damn it if it doesn't need to be said:
I don't think she will go back to congress either...
But if she does, c'mon fellow republicans, she's a D (and I don't mean bra size!)
Put her in the crosshairs, take aim, and shoot!
I really am sorry for my comments though.... St. Palin doesnt deserve that kind of ridicule.

Wilbur....I've already banned one idiot this afternoon don't make me do it again.
The bolded portion of your comments could be interpreted as a threat of personal harm if taken literally. I can certainly see why such action was taken on another forum. Particularly in light of the congresswoman's personal circumstances. (R or D, we don't allow threats even in jest here)
Don't do it again......this will be your only warning

Good to hear that.
As for Jared Loughner, I hope he gets irradiated with nuclear radiation.

She looks terrific, and what a beautiful smile she has...it just radiates!
Prayers for her continued recovery and hoping she will be able to continue to represent Arizona, as she seems to be a good person who was devoted to her job and her constituents. Those people are hard to find, regardless of their political party.

I guess you have no filter in your mind. You ought to think before you post something.

That's full-blown self-admitted confirmation that you are a lunatic. Insofar as you being a "republican" -- assuming you mean a member of that particular political party -- you're about as far removed from Repubs politically as the rest of us are from the moon.
I'm not a mod on this board, but if I were and you made a statement like that, I'd ban your ass too.
Making statements like that is not only wrong, there could very well be legal implications as well. Communicating a threat of that type -- as harmless as it might seem -- isn't received in the same manner in which it was delivered.
You're a ****ing nut job, wilbur, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Ditto, and a fervent hope for a complete recovery.
Looking at that picture is a thumb in the eye to Loughner.

Can you cite any of the things you say? If I was a mod, I would ban you.

Yeah. Why would anyone even speculate if Gifford is going to return? That's not even on anyone's mind.

Actually, it has crossed my mind a time or two.
But I am glad she is doing well and I wish her a full recovery.

Keep progressing, Gabrielle! We're all rooting for you.
I was just wondering though, why is her hair dark now? I remember seeing it in pictures as blonde.

Well guys.... I just got banned
Flush his ass worthless troll ass already.
God bless Gabby and her family.

Because they probably had to shave her head and this is her natural color.

Your participation is no longer welcome here. Goodbye.

she's one lucky gal. Phelps and terrorist gang were susposed to show up at hubby's launching.

She still looks gorgeous.

I knew Gabby rather well in the early 90's and her hair is naturally dark brown.

Phelps and his gangs belong in Hell with Osama bin Laden. :-) :fuelfire:

She looks great & I hope she continues to improve.

No F'ing way that was a Conservative. An anarchist, or supremacist, but, not a Conservative. Speaking only for myself, I would never, ever consider a seat pick-up over the health of a Congresswoman recovering from being shot in the head. :bird:

Little Nazi bitch boy wilbur is no Conservative. He likes to think he's many things (intelligent, relevant, thoughtful, educated, etc.), but in reality he's nothing more than a pseudo-intellectual lib attempting to look down his nose at his betters.

As one of Congresswoman Giffords' constituents, I probably have a more vested interest in her health and the issue of whether or not she is fit to return to duty than anyone else here. While I wholeheartedly wish her all the best for a complete recovery, it is obvious that she is not going to be in a condition anytime soon to resume her congressional duties. This leaves my district unrepresented in Congress. Congressmen already only get a short 2-year term, much of which they seem to spend campaigning for their next 2-year term. She's already been out of commission for 5 months.
As a fellow human being, I reiterate that I hope she recovers completely and I certainly wish NONE of this had happened. The fact that her attacker is currently getting away with murder, including that of the little girl, pisses me off no end. He may NEVER be charged, due to his mental condition, which I personally think is complete and utter bullshit. :fuelfire:
As someone who lives in her District, I wish I had a voice in Congress. Maybe it's only a symbolic voice, but unfortunately it's the only voice I have, except for the AZ Senators, who are tasked with representing the entire state, not just my little part.

I can definitely sympathize, though I'm obviously unable to do much more than express that.
The so-called "timetable" of May 2012 is apparently the only yardstick that's being broached right now. I don't have time to research right now, but there surely are congressional rules about lengthy, protracted illnesses of representatives and how their constituents are being represented during those illnesses.
It's pretty clear based on the article that Giffords is not, and probably never will be, fully recovered. We can wish and hope and pray and all of that, but after the brain sustains that much damage it's a miracle she's alive much less a vegetable. And while she's not a vegetable or in a coma, she's not 100%.
The thing is, if Giffords were to run for office today, she'd probably be reelected out of sympathy. And that ain't right either.

Someone should stick a photo of Gabby Giffords or even better make her show up in person to Jared Loughner and show how much of a failure he is. :fuelfire:

I would call you a sack of sh...t but I don't want to insult sacks.
Pissoff, loser.
:censored:
gifford's recovery is nothing less than a miracle from God.
-
I am thrilled she is doing as well as she is - and am very happy to see a picture of her that portrays happiness - comparing the image to others I have seen of her suggests to me that Gabby is still Gabby - and that is so important. As to the question if she will serve again, Id say its unlikely - just the PTSD that returning to work is likely to generate would be enough to move all but the strongest or the craziest away.
..oh, and as for the banned buttnugget who posted earlier...bite me..
-
Because they probably had to shave her head and this is her natural color.
:thatsright: I guess I had a blonde moment there... :whatever:
I hope her recovery continues to be as rapid as naturally possible, and she is back in congress in no time. (hopefully back in congress)
And indeed she does, Jess!
He may NEVER be charged, due to his mental condition, which I personally think is complete and utter bullshit.
So what if it IS true that he has a mental disorder. That's no excuse, and I think most here would agree with me. Only those "sympatico" leftist DUmors over on the Island would say different. She shouldn't be in any ward. He shouldn't be in any prison, isolation, etc. He should be 6 feet under ground. The end! That would at least get Gabby justicfe, and eliminate a whole host of other problems for many others.
-
It truly is great to see her smiling and back on her feet. Democratic, Republican, Liberal, or Conservative...we're all humans deep down.
Hopefully she recovers soon!

wilbur was shitcanned here after posting that tripe. Wilbur had a long and checkered history here before the axe finally fell. Despite his obfuscating, leftist, socialist, and marxist views, he was tolerated -- until this post came along.

It was idiots like that that made me start to remember why I drifted away from boards. :hammer:
Well, back on topic. To be honest I am shocked to see she looks as good as she does. Her doctors must have been incredible.

The left side of her face does have some problems, though. I'm not surprised, after what she suffered.

Sometimes you can only tolerate so much. Good for the Cave for showing him the door.
