when my colleague was shot in the head in January 2011, only months after she voted for the health care law.

He's talking about Gabby Giffords, of course. And he is implying that she was shot for her vote on Obamacare - a view that is as completely unsubstantiated as any that I have heard. Jared Lee Loughner was psycho by all accounts, a drug user with real mental issues.

But I'll draw a correlation between Murphy's deceptive use of this unfortunate incident and Democrats/leftists in general: Dem's ALWAYS position themselves on the 'high' moral ground by misstating the facts (i.e. lying) to distort the morality.

ALWAYS is an absolute, of course. And I hesitate to use absolutes. But I honestly cannot think of a case where a Democrat doesn't proceed his grandstanding with a lie.

I think they take after their father.

...and watched on TV when my colleague was shot in the head in January 2011, only months after she voted for the health care law....

What an arse.

Not to mention all the severe weather that followed the election.

In 2011 we had to cope with record rainfall in the spring and then Hurricane Irene, then the "Snowtober" snowstorm in October.

Thanks, Tea Party!

Is he implying that Rep. Giffords was shot because she voted for obamacare?

He knows she was shot by a nut who was not motivated by Obamacare in the slightest but he also knows America is filled with lots of chowderheads who will see these two unrelated things in the same sentence and assume they are linked. If anyone calls him on it, he says "I never said one caused the other" but he's trying to make it sound like it did.

“Sometimes, in a reflective moment sitting in the church pew, when I’m not trying mightily to enlist my 6-year-old daughter to keep my 3-year-old son quiet...”

This is all we need to know; not enough cajones to take care of his own son, has to ask his 6 year old to keep him quiet.

Listen you worm! Keeping your son quiet in church is YOUR JOB! Not your 6 year old’s. Just like taking care of the fiscal mess was YOUR JOB, and you foisted that off on your kids as well.

LOSER!

Yes, absolutely. And that the Tea Party was somehow responsible.

The MSLSD viewers (and all their separate accounts) are just gushing over this piece of crap.

Never let facts get in the way of a really nasty partisan smear job.

Corrected:

"I was one of the 63 House Democrats who lost their seat in the epic 2010 election that was fueled by the Tea Party my constituents and their angst against absolute opposition to Obamacare"

There. Fixed it.

Yup. They twist reality all the time. Example: give free guns to cartels, cartels kill people with those guns, go on TV and say "guns are too easy to get, we need more laws!".

One could just as easily (and accurately) write "Gabbi Giffords was shot months after Obama took power."

You, Patrick J. Murphy, are a vile piece of human garbage, and I would not perpendicularly traverse a linearly aligned conveyance route to micturate upon you were I to ascertain that you were rapidly combining with oxygen.
