On the one hand he says that Obama's the problem for not calling out the Congress; but then--by definition, he's saying Congress is actually the problem. So...the guy's a little wild. In fact, not sure emotions like that are helpful on a day like yesterday.
Do think he's right to a degree though. Bush took (operative word is "took") office w/ no real mandate, then acted like he had the whole country behind him. Obama had a genuine mandate, but acted as though he didn't really deserve it.
At the end of the day, not sure what Obama can do about riots in London; famine in Africa that could turn into a refugee/political nightmare; possible default in Italy and Spain; revolutions in Libya, Egypt and Syria that completely disrupt the region and possibly oil supplies. I mean, its just a mess that's way beyond just one guy or country.

I was more attuned in his rant about the money behind politicians and how it effects their vote.
