0bma was a radical, redistributionist, anti-constitutionalist, and a bat **** crazy, environmentalist. In other portions of that interview 0bama's radical environmental policies called for electricity rates to necessarily skyrocket, and for EPA regulatory burdens to be so great that coal power plants would go bankrupt. The only way 0bama was not a radical, would be as long as the person saying so was also a radical statist.

Some people were celebrating how superior and non-racist they were for electing a black person. Others were looking at how the economy tanked since the liberals gained control of the House and Senate and went on a spending spree and shuddered at the spending to come.

So Bush "ruined the economy" all by himself while Democrats controlled the House and Senate for 2 years. Then Republicans, in the minority for 2 more years while Democrats had control of all 3 branches continued to ruin it. Who knew that Democrats were so weak and pathetic, why would anyone vote for such useless people?
