Ray Bradbury is mad at President Obama, but it's not about the economy, the war or the plan to a construct a mosque near Ground Zero in New York City.

“He should be announcing that we should go back to the moon,”

“I think our country is in need of a revolution,” Bradbury said. “There is too much government today. We've got to remember the government should be by the people, of the people and for the people.”

The native of Waukegan, Ill., has never been shy about expressing himself -- he described President Clinton with a word that rhymes with "knithead" back in 2001.

Bradbury had to be physically removed from an LA City Council meeting after they voted down a free* monorail system - he wasn’t afraid to be vocal about his opinion of them and their vote.

*Alweg Co. (the ones who built the Disneyland system) offered to build and operate the system for 5 years in exchange for the first 5 years’ revenue, then donate it to the city.
