Max Baucus actually said...

[Americans] are going to great lengths, thousands of miles to other countries, to avoid paying their fair share. In a metaphorical sense, burning the flag, giving up what should be their most sacred possession, their American citizenship, to find a tax loophole. . . . These are precisely the sort of greedy, unpatriotic people that FDR called malefactors of great wealth. . . . Let us not allow more of these rich freeloaders to get away.

Context

Baucus criticized Americans abroad for avoiding taxes, labeling them unpatriotic.
