I couldn't make it more than 2 minutes into this clip of Rick Santelli blaming his wife for his claim that the White House was threatening him. Truly I am flabbergasted -- the guys makes a rant on television about Obama's stimulus package, the WH responds (giving him much more attention than he deserves and that he should be thankful for), and instead he first complains that he is being threatened, then takes it back and says his wife made him do it!
Maybe the only good thing about it is how it shows once again the abysmal level of Republican/rightwing spokespersons at this point in history. Joe the Plumber, Michael "jobs are not work" Steele, Bobby "simmering volcano" Jindal, "buy gold" Hannity, Limbaugh...
