Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) today from the House floor warned than health care reform is a bigger danger to the United States than “any terrorist”. Foxx used the “politics of fear” playbook from which the Republican Party became infamous for over the last three election cycles.
"Everywhere I go in my district, people tell me they are frightened. … I share that fear, and I believe they should be fearful. And I believe the greatest fear that we all should have to our freedom comes from this room — this very room — and what may happen later this week in terms of a tax increase bill masquerading as a health care bill. I believe we have more to fear from the potential of that bill passing than we do from any terrorist right now in any country.”
This past July while millions were being given to politicians by health care lobbyists to stop any reform at all costs, Rep. Foxx also said from the House floor: Americans will be “put to death by their government”. There truly are no bounds from these right wing extremists in congress.
