Keep It Classy, GOP
DebraLee Hovey, Republican State Representative in Newtown, Conn. is such a charmer.
The Republican lawmaker who represents Newtown in the Connecticut House of Representatives had some less than cordial words for former Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who came to meet with grieving families last Friday.
“Gabby Gifford (sic) stay out of my towns!!” DebraLee Hovey wrote in a now-deleted Facebook post, which she filed while on vacation in St. Pete Beach.
She later apologized (kinda) . It should be noted that Giffords met privately with family members. But,of course, Hovey’s snit was very public.
