Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) said on the House floor today that by passing health care reform, Democrats “will finally lay the cornerstone of their Socialist utopia on the backs of the American people.”

Earlier today, Nunes brushed off reports of protesters shouting racial epithets at Congressmen, ascribing them at least in part to Democratic “totalitarianism” that makes people “act crazy.”

Today on the House floor, Nunes railed against the Democrats’ plan, saying “this debate is not about the uninsured, it’s about socialized medicine.”

He continued: “For most of the 20th century people fled the ghosts of communist dictators. And now you are bringing the ghosts back into this chamber.”
