The Aftermath

In the hours following Rep Steve Scalice's shooting, we all watched the media go bonkers.   The last I heard, Rep Scalise was in surgery.  This morning I see that he's still in critical condition.  From CNN.

"Congressman Steve Scalise sustained a single rifle shot to the left hip. The bullet traveled across his pelvis, fracturing bones, injuring internal organs, and causing severe bleeding," MedStar said in a statement put out by Scalise's office. "He underwent immediate surgery, and an additional procedure to stop bleeding. He has received multiple units of blood transfusion. His condition is critical, and he will require additional operations. We will provide periodic updates."

We'll continue to pray for Steve and petition for his full recovery.
