 “In an extraordinary outburst on the House floor, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) invoked the Holocaust to put upon Republicans on health care and compared rhetoric on the issue to the work of infamous Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels….

 “Cohen made his comments late last night, but they have attracted no attention because his speech was made to a virtually empty House chamber with no reporters around to watch.”
