That’s okay, we can compare the ‘Rats health care law to Nazi medical care.

(And if they really want to discuss Nazi propaganda, suddenly Woodrow Wilson’s Committee on Public Information, the model for Goebbels efforts, comes to mind. . . and Wilson was a member of which party? . . .)

House Dem compares GOP health care case to Nazi propaganda

Say What? Democrat Compares Republicans to Nazis
http://blogs.abcnews.com/thenote/2011/01/abc-news-jonathan-karl-reports-the-newfound-civility-didnt-last-long-political-rhetoric-in-congress-doesnt-get-much.html

ABC News Jonathan Karl reports: The newfound civility didn’t last long. Political rhetoric in Congress doesn’t get much nastier than the words of one House Democrat during the debate on repealing the health care law.

In an extraordinary outburst on the House floor, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) invoked the Holocaust to attack Republicans on health care and compared rhetoric on the issue to the work of infamous Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.

“They say it’s a government takeover of health care, a big lie just like Goebbels,” Cohen said. “You say it enough, you repeat the lie, you repeat the lie, and eventually, people believe it. Like blood libel. That’s the same kind of thing. And Congressman Cohen didn’t stop there.

“The Germans said enough about the Jews and people believed it—believed it and you have the Holocaust. We heard on this floor, government takeover of health care. Politifact said the biggest lie of 2010 was a government takeover of health care because there is no government takeover,” Cohen said.
Cohen made his comments late last night, but they have attracted no attention because his speech was made to a virtually empty House chamber with no reporters around to watch.

This congresssman, Steve Cohen of Tennessee, is doing what the left always does when they’re cornered; spew invective and compare their opposition to Hitler, Nazis and the Holocaust, buzz words that have, sadly, become trite from overuse. Those on the political left who cannot truthfully defend ObamaCare, wistfully hope that if they name-call and link the opposition to Nazi’s, that opposition - in this case, not just congressional Republicans but over half of America - will slink away, embarrassed and rightfully scorned. Well, that ploy may have worked 20 or 30 years ago but no more, at least not when ObamaCare is the issue. Americans hate it and see it for what it really is. A hideously expensive, massive intrusion into the doctor-patient relationship and a vehicle that will be used to control people when it’s provisions have forced private health insurance companies out of the market and ObamaCare remains the only souce of health care insurance. Gee, I dunno, I think that would be, in effect, a government takeover, congressman Cohen.
