Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords

My best wishes to her and all others injured. My condolences to the family of those killed, and perhaps as well as the family of Jared Loughner, the alledged gunman.
But lets keep things in perspective. This appears to be a crime of a mentally disturbed individual. This is not a political assassination. This is not a manifest problem of our political discourse. This is a tragedy but not a national tragedy.

Again best wishes to all who suffers because of this despicable act.
