This afternoon’s shooting/car chase incident outside the D.C. Capitol left many citizens confused and scared. But for “General Hospital” actress Nancy Lee Grahn, it was just another opportunity to take a nasty, disingenuous swipe at the Congressional GOP:
Incident outside Capitol reportedly not an act of terror. However, the act inside the House is. #GOPshutdown

Yuk yuk yuk! Get it? Because Republicans are terrorists!
Here was her initial tweet:
Which she deleted after being informed that “capital” and “capitol” are not the same thing.
"Capitol" RT @NancyLeeGrahn: Incident outside Capital reportedly not an act of terror. However, the act inside the House is. #GOPshutdown

She explained that mistake by pointing out her dyslexia:
@jacobperry thank u Jacob. I stand corrected. Have dyslexia. My spelling suffers often.
— Nancy Lee Grahn (@NancyLeeGrahn) October 3, 2013
@PruPaine @ollieblog thank u both for correcting my spelling error. I have dyslexia. Sometime my spelling suffers. Appreciate the heads up

That’s fine, but this tweeter asks a great question:
.@NancyLeeGrahn does dyslexia cause you to refer to elected politicians as terrorists for shits and giggles? Just asking. @PruPaine

Only bitterness and idiocy can explain that.
and who are you now? @NancyLeeGrahn

FFS, @nancyleegrahn, aren't you aware that @SenatorReid won't pass NIH funding so kids can continue their clinical cancer med trials?
— CatsPolitics (@CatsPolitics) October 3, 2013
Yep. Harry Reid built this shutdown (with plenty of help from Obama, of course).
@AceofSpadesHQ @NancyLeeGrahn If you really want an "act of terror," watch one of her performances.
