David Fitzsimmons from the Arizona Daily Star on with CNN now. Said it was bound to inevitable because “the right has been stocking the fires of heated anger and rage especially.”

NBC reporting 6 dead including the Congresswoman.

There’s gotta be pics or video somewhere, makes sense that folks attending a rally where a congress person was would be taking pics...

It’s OUTRAGEOUS1
So sad and such a tragedy!
Assassinations are not the way we protest in our Republic!

You can bet we will hear kneejerk cries for gun control from the Marxists, so prepare to stand strong.

Congreewoman Giffords was pro-2nd Amendment.

Dear God, four others were killed including a child!

He shouted something before he was shot.

David Fitsimmons, the Political Cartoonist for the Arizona Star being interviewed on CNN just blamed the Right (AKA Tea Party?) for the shootings. All the while admitting he knows none of the facts in the case of course.

Another disgusting Libtard, what a surprise.

DU and KOS are irrelevant, they live in stupidity and like it. If anything they should be praying for those involved in this tragic event.

CNN had a nit-wit from the Tucson Red Star on, declaring AZ a place with a gun fetish. Extreme right-wing politics killed her. Turns out the guy is a cartoonist for the extreme left-wing rag.

She is Pro Life - Pro 2nd Amendment -

Why would you put this forward as fact, if it isn't true???
It is very irresponsible to pass along erroneous information especially at time like this.

What rubbish our news organizations are. Both CNN and Fox "confirmed"that she died, MSNBC said she was still alive. Then CNN comes back on and says they're "confirming" if she in fact did die. Fox still reporting she died, preferring to spend their time talking about how she caused her party problems (I'm assuming she was more moderate) rather than getting their story straight. Just rubbish all of them.

I put this out here for info ONLY. I have no comment on it.

Jewish woman takes Arizona seat

PHOENIX, Nov. 8 (JTA) — For the first time in Arizona history, a Jewish woman will be part of the state’s congressional delegation. Democrat Gabrielle Giffords cruised to victory Tuesday over Republican Randy Graf in the state’s 8th Congressional District, capturing approximately 54 percent of the vote to Graf’s 42 percent.

She’s also pro life and pro 2nd Amendment.

What is your source for this or do you usually pass along wrong information as fact?

What an ASS to blame the TEA Party when it sounds more like the act of an open borders advocate! Nobody knows right now.

Strange how They can tell age by just looking, but can't tell ethnicity?

And Peter Doocy said he shouted something, but couldn't specify what it was or even what language it was in. Huh?

There is no constitutional provision for the governor to make appointments to the House. The seat will remain vacant until a special election can be held.
