On the recordJanuary 12, 2011
You know, in this country we do our political discourse with balance, not bullets. And although the assassin tried to murder a U.S. Congresswoman, he really was trying to stick a stake or murder American democracy. All of us on both sides of the aisle are not going to let him. We are going to continue to do what we've done before-- going out in the street, meeting people, taking care, and helping our constituents. We are going to continue to attend town hall meetings and do the kinds of things that Gabby would want us to do. I look forward to Gabby returning here. I look forward to working with her again. Gabby Giffords is the best America has to offer, and we honor her and all of the other victims of the shooting today.
