This letter appeared today in the AZStarNet:
Here’s an interesting bit of political hypocrisy. Both U.S. Reps. Gabrielle Giffords and Raúl Grijalva voted for H.R. 800, which eliminated the secret ballot for union elections. But, they both voted against Rep. Paul Ryan’s amendment to the congressional budget resolution that would, among other things, require the House of Representatives to hold a roll call vote for any expenditure over $50 million. I guess secrecy is great for them, but not for employees.

Learn something new everyday. Of course, that is no surprise to anyone who knows the real Gabrielle Giffords. That woman not being the moderate Democrat she said she was in the ‘06 campaign, but instead being the ultra-liberal who has fallen in step with Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, and Arizona’s very own, 3rd most liberal member of the House, Raul Grijalva.
The hypocrisy runs deep on this one, but again, what does Gabby care? She’s being sized up as the face of the next generation of Democrats. That is much more important than actually serving her constituents, which again live in a right-to-work state. But there is the theme of America’s new Democratic majority, states rights are a thing of the past now that the government is ready to expand its borders of power. And Gabby is going along for the ride.
