You Betcha!

Is it appropriate for Tea Partiers to use images of concentration camp victims to illustrate the horrors of health care reform? “You bet,” says former Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO).

Late Update: I went back watched the video in question several times. And though Tancredo said “you bet” to the “appropriate” question, it seems to me that he got confused in the cross-talk between him and the interviewer David Shuster. In context, I think Tancredo meant to say it was inappropriate, in other words, the opposite. The perils of live smash-mouth television. Don’t worry. Tancredo said lots of other crazy stuff. But I don’t think he meant to say this was okay.
