One does wonder what a church of Christ preacher and his wife were doing around a politician from the far left. Did it seem to them that visiting with Giffords in a grocery store parking lot would be the way the Holy Spirit would use to convict Giffords of her sins?

That would seem rather doubtful.

OTOH, one can easily doubt the Left-wing shooter would recognize the preacher and his wife, to pick them out as targets, though perhaps whatever demonic spirit possessed the shooter did.

I don’t think the Congresswoman was necessarily far left.

Giffords is a blue dog democrat, not a leftwing wacko.

I don’t think that preacher look at wings. Maybe they just wanted to hear what Rep Gifford had to say.

You are misjudging Giffords who was, by all accounts, a conservative Democrat. That party needs to reform from within, and I wish her well.

You are also mixing politics and religion, which our Savior never did.

I know fine church friends who are long-time Democrats, although disgusted by some of the positions today’s Democratic party has taken. Remember that platforms change and that conservatism does not always ally itself with one party.

many were in that area cause of the grocery store, dry cleaners and Circle K......not just to see Gabby

Depends on which "Church of Christ". The Rev. Wright (Obama's buddy) is a "Church of Christ" preacher man.

You have to figure out which one it is to see if he was being brave, or if he tripped and fell on her.

After a great deal of effort I finally discovered that their theological leanings are "Restorationist" ~ which is, according to some of its critics "aggressively fundamentalist" ~ so it's probably the case they're like a non-instrumental Christian Church that gave up not using organs and pianos.

Yeah, he leaped on his wife to protect her ~ those guys do that. Actually, ever since Alvin York everybody kind of expects them to.
