I really can't think of a more disgusting, pathetic thing for someone to say on a day when Democrats are mourning the loss of a talented and dedicated leader who had great potential for service to her country.

She's not dead.
(I don't really know if she can continue to serve, however.)
Gee you're fast. I already deleted that comment.
Thanks anyway.
Based on quotes I've seen from her surgeons, it's not likely she will be able to serve again.

The local sheriff might have a better feel for the atmosphere surrounding this than a long-distance personal diagnosis from a non-professional health care giver from Chicago.

I think a physical therapist is generally considered a health-care "professional", if you are referring to Black, of course. kj.
Thanks for the backup, kj. I'm an Occupational Therapist, and I've worked full time on a locked psych ward for several years of my career.
Rgr delights in being wrong, for reasons probably not worth trying to understand.

I would guess you're right it isn't likely, but I've seen more miraculous recoveries, so I think one can still hope.

edit: Sorry Black, I knew I remembered something like that (OT, PT, SLP, etc.), but at least I was close! kj.

Sounds more likely that this pot smoking, communist manifesto loving lefty would be reading the daily kos than sarapalin.com

Do tell. There's no evidence whatsoever that he is a "lefty". The evidence thus far points only to him being a wacko.
Loughner worked for Gifford's election campaign in 2007.

He loved the communist manifesto.

I've seen some articles that showed this wasn't his first contact with the congresswoman. But I haven't seen where he worked for her. That would seem very odd given his previous contact resulted in him telling friends how much he hated her. For that matter it would seem odd if he worked for any campaign. He seems to dislike all of government and had definite paranoia issues.

Loved the communist manifesto? How do you know that? Because he had the book? I have had books I did not like and did not agree with.

Your implication about liberal = communist is just one example of the crap spewed by the right to invoke an emotional response at the voting booth. And has nothing to do with reality.

He had criminal record. How did he get his gun? Isn't there a law against it already?
