A Ray of Hope…
Shot in head in a January massacre (19 wounded, 6 fatally) Rep. Gaby Giffords (D-Arizona) appeared publicly for the first time since the catastrophic event, to cast her vote to raise the debt ceiling. Enduring multiple surgeries and tortuous months of therapy, it was uncertain if she would ever walk or talk, yet alone play a role in politics.This valiant survivor received bipartisan cheers as she appeared among her brethren – easing for that brief moment the dangerous contentiousness that now haunts Congress.
