#40, Ted Yoho (FL - 03)

As part of my “tribute” to the U.S. House Repugs and their 50 51 52 votes to repeal the Affordable Care Law...

Like every other Repug (I believe) in the House, Yoho (a darling of the Teahadists) voted to cut SNAP benefits while maintaining farm subsidies (here).

Yoho also praised an alleged “birther” conspiracy and called “Obamacare” racist against white people (here).

In addition to food stamps, he also railed against gay marriage and “terrorist immigrants” here.

And speaking of SNAP, it looks like Yoho and his wife applied during the Carter Administration – but of course, he opposes it now because he wants to “wean” people off it, or something (here).

There’s lots of stuff on Yoho here, including his “don’t tax our tanning beds” idiocy.

Update 10/7/13: OWWWWWW!! THE STUPID!!! IT BURNS US!!!!!

Update 10/11/13: Actually, I’m not sure who’s more of an idiot here – Yoho, or the caller presumably from his district who thinks that furloughed federal workers automatically “are home watching Netflix and whatever…”

Update 4/15/14: What a dope (but we already knew that, right?).
