Akin Makes Early Bid For Most Absurd Response to Health Care Vote

Todd Akin on the "deadly enemy" and "the gold chains of socialism."

Today Americans are reacquainted with the danger of an arrogant all powerful government, a deadly enemy within, a clear and present danger in Washington.

In spite of nationwide opposition socialized medicine is being forced down our throats. That medicine is toxic to freedom. But freedom dies hard in America.

I do not believe that the majority of Americans will submit passively to the gold chains of socialism.

True patriots choose the bright light and fresh air of freedom where people can dare to dream- to succeed or fail.

I have confidence that freedom will rise from the ashes of socialism and that this nation under God will have a rebirth of liberty and a government of the people, by the people and for the people.”
