LOL @Todd Tiahrt, R- KS

At a recent townhall meeting in Kansas, Rep. Todd Tiahrt told a lie so outrageous that the audience couldn't help but lough out loud. Tiahrt claimed the health care bill would impose strict salary caps for doctors:

"They're gonna set up a committee to determine what every doctor in America will make. They will set that fee, every doctor will make the same."

At that point the crowd burst into laughter, knowing the widely debunked claim was a lie.
