Congresswoman Shot

...breaking news today that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona was shot and killed today at an event in Tucson.

UPDATED: Well, she's not dead. It'd be fascinating to learn just exactly how she managed to survive a gunshot wound to the head, but for now, she has survived. And it's depressing and beyond disgusting how sick this country truly is sometimes. People are dead and what's happening? An out and out pissing match is breaking out between right and left about whether or not the shooter, a reportedly very disturbed young man was Conservative or Liberal.

People need to grow up, is what I think. People are dead and it's time to get some perspective- if ever there was a time to tell the extremes of both ends of the political spectrum to 'shove it' it would be today. We all need to come together as Americans and find real life solutions to the problems we face. It's time for action, not rhetoric.
