Gotta love how he takes a quote from a New Hampshire state rep. and applies it to the entire Republican party.
Via Time Magazine:
Mocking Republicans for their escalating rhetoric on how dire the health care law will prove to be, Obama said one Republican’s assertion that it was the worst law in the nation’s history is an awfully tall order.
“You had a state representative somewhere say that it’s as destructive to personal and individual liberty as the Fugitive Slave Act,” the president said as the audience booed.
“Think about that. Affordable health care is worse than a law that lets slave owners get their runaway slaves back.”
