He liked arugula and drove a Prius, too

Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) says political rhetoric doesn't really incite violent behavior at all -- but not before describing Arizona shooting suspect Jared Loughner as a "communist" and "the liberal of liberals."
"This guy appears to be a communist," Foxx told the Winston-Salem Journal. "His beliefs are the liberal of the liberals [sic]. There is no evidence whatsoever that this man was influenced by Sarah Palin or anybody in the Republican Party. This man is not a conservative; he's a fan of communism - that's the opposite of conservatism."


Ms. Foxx is also noted for her comments about Matthew Shepard's murder, calling the evidence he was kidnapped and killed for being gay a hoax.

In the new Congress she will head a committee on higher education.
