Obama is 'most radical president ever'



NEW ORLEANS Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a potential presidential candidate in
2012, called Barack Obama on Thursday "the most radical president in American history" who
oversees a "secular, socialist machine."

Gingrich reminded conservative activists why he was one of the nation's most polarizing leaders in the 1990s, opening the Southern Republican Leadership Conference with a biting assessment of Obama's policies.

"The most radical president in American history has now thrown down the gauntlet to the American people: 'I run a machine.
I own Washington and there's nothing you can do about it,'" Gingrich said. He urged his fellow Republicans to stop what he called Obama's "secular, socialist machine."
