Michael Savage: "I agree with Obama on regulating banks. They’re out of control."

[alp227]

In 2010, hard-right talk radio host Michael Savage http://www.playboy.com/articles/michael-savage-playboy-interview/index.html?page=2">did an in-depth interview with Playboy magazine. The interview covered aspects of Savage's personal life, political views, cultural views, and criticisms of other conservative radio hosts. Apparently we liberals (we're vermin according to Savage) have an unlikely ally in financial regulation:

PLAYBOY: Is the Obama administration doing right in your opinion?

SAVAGE: I agree with Obama on regulating banks. They’re out of control. Even the bankers will tell you that.

WOW! How many other conservatives also have advocated stronger bank regulation ever since Clinton signed the bill repealing the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999 (with strong bipartisan support in Congress)? Especially if Republicans in the Senate have stalled FOREVER in the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (if I have the name right).

But then Savage didn't expand on that but instead ranted on about Obama being a Marxist and claimed that attending Jeremiah Wright's church should've disqualified Obama from being president.

Savage has also considered the Iraq War a "mistake" and based George "Dumbo" Bush and his foreing policy "mis-advisors". And in this same Playboy interview, Savage called Glenn Beck a "laughingstock" and commented: "What’s with the chalk? He didn’t go to college so he’s making up for it by playing professor on television?"
