Conservative Rep Michele Bachmann (R-MN) Blasts Obama‘s ’Socialism’, Invites Everyone Out for Drinks During CPAC Speech

(By Jonathon M. Seidl, The Blaze) - Two things were clear in Rep. Michele Bachmann’s (R-MN) opening speech Thursday at the annual CPAC gathering in Washington, D.C.: she doesn’t like Barack Obama, and she’s ready to party.

Bachmann, a possible 2012 presidential candidate and Tea Party favorite, reminded the audience of about 11,000 that she wants to make Obama a one-term president, that she sees his health care overhaul as “socialism” and dangerous for America, but also that conservatives have reason to celebrate after sweeping wins in the November elections.
