Vox Bachmann: Rep croons on Auto-Tune the News

Rep. Michele Bachmann leads off the new installment of Auto-Tune the News, musician Michael Gregory’s online “faux R&B series,” which features news figures’ voices filtered through the Auto-Tune audio processor. This edition tackles the recent climate change legislation, tweaking Bachmann’s speech about how the bill represents “tyranny of the government.” Also making cameos: Sarah Palin, Michael Jackson, John Boehner, Henry Waxman and others.

The script for the section featuring Bachmann:

MB:

We get to choose
We get to choose
It’s one of the two
liberty or tyranny

EG: can we please choose something in between? mediocrity?
MG: chastity?
HW: puppetry?
OB: obesity?
JE: marijuanity? pretty please?!

MB: The underlying bill represents the tyranny of the government
It’s our choice, what will we choose today?
Will we choose liberty, or will we choose tyranny?

MG: it all depends–who gets to be the tyrant?
SG: I thought this bill was about the climate
