Tennessee GOP State Senator Likens Obamacare Sign-Ups To Nazi Death Trains

A Tennessee state senator thinks it's unwise for the Obama administration to brag about how many Americans have signed up for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act, likening it to the Nazis touting how many Jews were shipped to concentration camps.

I can't get past the idea that some of them really mean what they say, and what they say is fucking crazy.

It's purposeful destruction of reason and logic so their base can feed. Keep them constantly confused then rally them together around election time. I've also discovered voting patterns are generational. "Well my daddy voted Republican and I'm going to as well cause en I loves my daddy. Daddy, daddy, daddy, I loves mei daddayeeeeee! Yeeee Hawwww" Yes it's that simple.

Note what comes to the fore in his voting record.

As for his blog, it seems he is unacquainted with the concept of the apostrophe. Also, he blames the people offended by his equation of the ACA to the Holocaust by whingeing that they just misunderstood him.
