It’s been just over a week since news broke that a team of Navy SEALs had eliminated America’s most wanted man, Osama bin Laden.
Even so, critics of the President and his policies remain vocal. One of those critics is UFC fighter, Jacob Volkmann.
According to MMAJunkie‘s Steven Marrocco, Volkmann has a planned speech for his next post-fight interview with Joe Rogan. The speech will be focused on President Obama, no matter the questions he is asked.
“Even though people don’t want me to do it, I don’t care,” he told MMAjunkie.com.
Volkmann first got in trouble after a controversial interview with MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani after UFC 125, in which he claimed that, if he could fight just one person, it would be President Obama.
It’s the President’s health care policy that’s been the focus of Volkmann’s frustration.
The words drew a ton of attention from even national media sources. Members of the secret service even visited Volkmann.
Volkmann, a wrestling coach at White Bear Lake High School, was suspended from that job for a short period after the incident with the secret service.
Even worse, he has not been scheduled for another fight since his win over Antonio McKee at UFC 125.
The UFC told Volkmann that it was not because of the comments he made, but rather, that the UFC’s lightweight division is so cluttered right now.
He has been adamant and stuck to what he said before regarding the President’s health care policies. As a chiropractor himself, Volkmann deals first-hand with the endless paperwork required under the new rules.
“It’s like he doesn’t even really care about what happens,” Volkmann proclaimed. “He has these policies, and he doesn’t have a clue what they’re about. He’s doing a horrible job.”
As a UFC fighter, Volkmann intends on using his fame to continue to reject what is going on under the current administration.
“I’m hoping that he calls me, and actually wants to know why I’m saying this stuff,” Volkmann said.
With no opponent yet determined from the Republican side for the 2012 election and Bin Laden dead, Obama may have a couple of minutes to spare to talk to a disgruntled citizen.
But probably not.
