I want to take a moment to defend Rick Santelli. Look for the left wing to initiate a smear campaign. Already I see he is being called a racist because he went on CNBC and said that he didn’t like the Obama plan.

Hardball’s Chris Mathews tried to destroy his credibility buy saying he was biased because he voted for McCain.

Neither of these things are true. Rick is not a racist. He is not biased, even though he did vote for McCain.

Rick is a passionate defender of free market capitalism. He understand markets extremely well. He understands the benefits that free markets can bring to a society.

Rick is not a right wing fanatic. He hated the Bush administrations management of the countries financial system too.
