News Gabby Giffords Will Leave Congress This Week

Posted by Denis C. Theriault on Sun, Jan 22, 2012 at 11:48 AM

Almost a year after she was shot, almost fatally, outside an Arizona supermarket, Representative Gabby Giffords announced today that she's leaving Congress this week to focus on her continuing (and amazing) recovery. I dare you to watch the video her staff posted today and not feel something stir in that cold, dark heart of yours.

She's becoming a Rebulican and running for president.

I really applaud her recovery. I hope she gets better.

Personally, I would not be able to do a public speaking event again after getting shot. I'm not saying this was her motivation, just a comment on what I'd do in her shoes.

That screen shot makes her look like a young Liz Lemon.
