Gabrielle Giffords' Husband Blasts John Boehner

[Lakhota]

Rep. Gabrielle Giffords' husband came out swinging against House Speaker John Boehner over his decision not to visit the injured congresswoman.

In the couple's new joint memoir, "Gabby: A Story of Courage and Hope", Mark Kelly expressed his disappointment in Boehner's efforts to check in on Giffords.

"Considering that she was a member of Congress and he was the highest-ranking member, we thought he'd ask to visit Gabby or at least give a call to see how she was doing," Kelly writes, via The Hill. "Our only contact with him had been a simple get-well card he'd sent a few days after Gabby was injured."

Gee, I don't know. Maybe you could ask him. He doesn't seem upset about Obama and Pelosi...

Giffords should not be in Congress. She should step down because her brain has been penetrated by a bullet. It will affect her decision making from now on.

Clearly, you know nothing about brain injuries.

Well, she is still smarter and more human than the House Tea-Tards.

And? You would expect a liberal democrat NOT to be critical of a conservative republican at any and every opportunity? It would be the same if the roles were reversed, except that you democrats would be squealing louder....

Yeah, I wonder if Lakhota and his merry band of moonbats were outraged when Obama dissed our wounded troops in Germany a while back?

Who gives a shit?....He needs to get over his sensitivity BS.

Boehner did nothing wrong....He said very nice things about her, and offered his symapathy and prayers in the immediate aftermath of the shooting.....He sent her a fuckin' card......Nothing more is required of him.

It was a far bigger slap in the face when Obama dissed our wounded troops in Germany to attend a fuckin' party.
