After the National Republican Congressional Committee aired an attack ad against Congressman Ron Barber that featured Gabby Giffords, Gabby herself released a statement condemning the tactic.
“No organization or person—no matter which party they say they represent—should think they can come to Southern Arizona and pretend to speak for me,” Giffords said. “I work hard to speak, but it’s my voice. So take it from me: Ron is an independent leader in Congress, and no one will fight harder for our community.”

Apparently MARK is wagging the Dog.. because Gabby doesnt actually THINK for herself.. not in those terms.. She’s been paraded around by her “husband”…the Carpetbagger, since her shooting.. NOONE believes SHE is actually saying anything…. NICE TRY, Mark.
Wow, nice.
I’ve read some nasty comments on the internets, but that comment by Guiseppe is the nastiest comment I think I’ve ever read. It not only denigrates Gabby Giffords , but every other person who struggles with a disability. Very unkind and fails the Golden Rule test.
Has anyone noticed that GuiseppeKnows has no friends? Wonder why? I know Gabby Giffords and she has never needed anyone to think for her. Clearly GK could use someone to think for him.
Maybe I misunderstood this ad, I thought it was only citing statistics. That’s the problem with all these PACs, including Giffords…..they inflame and lie in an effort to distort the campaign.
Need I remind all of you that every one of them is a politician.
The truth doesn’t matter to any of them. It’s just what they can make you believe that counts.
Look out for low information voters. Read both sides…Think for yourself.
Here is a great story regarding her progress. Look how they thought at the time:

I wish she would speak out on mental health. So many ignored so much from this guy. Didn’t he even say he had voted for her?
guisseppeknows squat. What do you offer but negative? If you have a better plan offer it dude. You got squat to say because you got squat for brains. Gabby has something to say and says it clearly. What have you got to say but ripping someone. Go push your head back where it was extracted from….
Barber actually did vote for some border measures. It would be helpful if all politicians (even Republicans) would think for themselves and think of some legislation that would make it easier for people from other countries to work here legally. Not all who cross the border to work want to immigrate, they just want to make enough money to survive. A streamilined guest worker program would free up border patrol resources so more time could be spent preventing human and drug trafficking and terrorist entry rather than just catching people who came to work. That way, employers could employ guest workers legally, the workers would pay taxes, and employers could not underpay and exploit workers who are not here legally.
Sounds like rainbows and lollipops Judy. Then our economy tanks and job seekers turn into criminals that we can’t seem to deport. Mexico will continue to “dump” their unwanted on the US.
