A brief new thread for you early risers:
- Nothing terribly new from overnight in regards to medical condition. Latest from Arizona Republic is as follows: “As of 4:30 a.m. Sunday, Giffords remained in critical condition at University Medical Center in Tucson, according to hospital spokeswoman Darcy Slaten.”
- The idea that Rep. Gabby Giffords may survive is tempered by the thought that the bullet that entered her head, and exited, naturally did some damage. Permanent, irreparable damage is, I think, a safe presumption; guesses as to the extent of it (cognitive or otherwise) are not. None of this lessens the horror at all. On that point: total death toll still stands at 6.
- John Boehner to speak at or around 0830 ET. My guess is that the Sunday chatshows (Face the Nation, Meet the Press, etc.) are going to flood the zone. Whether or not anybody wants to say anything provocative (for example: “this is what happens when you rile people up,” “how dare you,” and the cream-pie tossing that would naturally follow) is a big question. I think that a Dem or two might hint at Going There, but not actually do it.
- Word is that there will be no business done in the House this week, at all. Whether or not they actually gavel in is up in the air, but I think at some point they probably will, at least in a pro forma, “the government continues to function” sort of way. HCR repeal vote is certainly off.
- Nothing further on the possibility of an accomplice that was raised last night. Speculation on Loughner’s motivation and level of mental illness continues, shedding more heat than light as you would expect. [ADD: Fearless Leader posted comments by Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center, speaking to Olbermann last night. That comes as close to “informed analysis” as we have seen thus far.
Stinque Book Club will appear at its regularly scheduled time, I am reliably informed. Further updates as warranted.
