| Description | He’s back in the hot seat again.
Tuesday, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) warned that the Republican health care plan was to “die quickly.”
On Wednesday, Grayson riled up Republicans again, likening the lack of health care reform to a “holocaust in America.”
Republicans howled and threatened to try to sanction Grayson for his comments on Tuesday. This mirrored efforts by Democrats to punish Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) after he shouted “You lie!” at President Obama during a Joint Session of Congress.
On Wednesday, Grayson refused to apologize.
“Because I said the truth,” Grayson noted in an interview with FOX News.
But the Florida Democrat did apologize. At least in one context. Grayson again took to the floor after speaking with FOX.
“I apologize to the dead and their families that we haven’t voted sooner to end this holocaust in America.” |
