Grayson's at it again...
By Molly K. Hooper - 10/08/09 04:47 PM ET


Controversial lawmaker Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fl.) told his GOP colleagues opposed to healthcare reform to "get out of the way."

The freshman lawmaker took to the floor following regular business and yelled into C-SPAN cameras that "America doesn't care about (Republicans') feelings," and that he "WILL NOT APOLOGIZE" for accusing Republicans opposed to healthcare reform of wanting "Americans to die."

Grayson took aim at GOP Senator Olympia Snowe (Maine), who has been on the fence over whether to support healthcare reform in the Senate.

"Just get out of the way - you can lead, you can follow or you can get out of the way, and I'm telling you to get out of the way," he said.

Grayson made his statement without addressing the GOP lawmakers in the chamber.
