Video: Rep. Foxx: "Health care reform is a bigger threat than any terrorist right now in any country"
Rep. Virginia Foxx's (R-N.C.) reputation for over-the-top rhetoric is well deserved. She a deather, a tenther, and recently boasted, "There are no Americans who don't have healthcare."

But today's gem is a must-have for Foxx's greatest-hits package.

During a floor speech today, Foxx bluntly declared that the Affordable Health Care for America Act, which House Democrats unveiled last week, is a greater threat than any terrorist in the world:

"...I believe that 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."
