Those are the words of Virginia Foxx (NC-05) who also said There are No Americans That Don't have Health Care
"We do not have 47 million Americans that don't have health care. There are no Americans who don't have healthcare. Everybody in this country has access to healthcare. We do have about 7.5 million Americans who want to purchase health insurance who can not afford it,"
One of the most reactionary members of Congress is Grandma Foxx. The same lady who called Matthew Shepards murder a hoax
Today Billy Kennedy has visited us , with an impressive statement about what kind of Democrat he is, to announce that he is taking on this evil lady. We need to support him. We just added him to our Progressive Electorate/ Daily Kos Act Blue Page

Do we want members of Congress that incite violence and spew hate at any opportunity or do we want Billy Kennedys who talk about supporting Medicare for All?
Do we want crazy reactionaries claim that Republicans passed Civil Rights legislation in the 1960's without the help of Democrats?
Obviously so far from the truth it's not funny. It's because of Jesse Helms from North Carolina as Dennis Cardoza says.
Do we want to keep this type of crazy in the United States Congress? The type that find health care as the biggest fear and threat in this country.
Everywhere I go in my district, people tell me they are frightened. They are frightened about what is happening in this country. They fear for the future of our country. What they are talking about is they fear for our freedoms. They fear for the principles that form this country and have always been the bases on which we operate. 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
.
I don't either and I ask you to join me in supporting strong Democrats that have guts like Billy Kennedy. Those that are willing to stand up to the Michele Bachmann's, the Steve King's and the Virginia Foxx's of our Congress.
