Gabby Giffords Resigning

Well, this news is sad. No other way to put it. The Congresswomen from Arizona was almost killed in an assassination attempt last year. The attack lead to many others, including a 9 year old girl, to die. Giffords is very lucky to be alive.

The recovery of Giffords has been extraordinary. She is miles further than her doctors projected she would be. But, the news of her resigning was bound to happen. Everyone knows she won't be fit for office for at least another year or so. It is just sad that the news had to come. She remains hopeful that she can return to the job that she loves at some point in the future.
