Giffords Update
The Huffington Post linked to this informative UK Channel 4 interview with the surgeon who treated Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. I think it’s worth re-posting here to update the Stinque crowd on Giffords’ condition (good considering) and long-term prognosis (too soon to tell).

No matter how severe the damage to her brain, I don’t think Rep. Giffords could ever sink to the level of the brain-dead Arizona GOP. They include such dim bulbs as state senator Sylvia Allen who claims that trees are “stealing Arizona’s water supply”.
