Speaking at a conservative summit in Denver late last week, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said she believed America was turning into “a nation of slaves” because of Barack Obama, Democrats and the new health care law.

“We are determined to live free or not at all. And we are resolved that posterity shall never reproach us with having brought slaves into the world,” Bachmann said quoting Founding Father John Jay.

Then Bachmann added her own take:

“We will talk a little bit about what has transpired in the last 18 months and would we count what has transpired into turning our country into a nation of slaves,” she said.

The Republican congresswoman told 600 conservative voters that electing “constitutional conservatives” was the only way to escape the “tyranny” by Democrats over the past 18 months.
