Vermont Socialist Senator Bernie Sanders Says Obama Should Face A Democrat “Progressive” Primary Challenger

Vermont’s socialist US Senator says that President Barack Obama should face a “Progressive” primary challenger.

If the Far LEFT and Progressives had any credibility, they would put their primary challenger where their mouth is. In a recent CNN poll, is was shown that Obama is losing traction with with the LEFT. Even though Sanders is not one of the most influential Democrat Senators, many on the LEFT are starting to become disenchanted with Obama. Although, if Obama ever did face a primary challenge in 2012 it would destroy the Democrat party and any of Obama’s chances at a reelection. Many of us are hoping that the LEFT has the guts and conviction to do so.

Hat Tip: Fox News

Barack Obama is in serious 2012 reelection trouble. The RIGHT will come out in record numbers against Obama, all polls show that he has lost the Independents and now the LEFT is losing that loving feeling. I would hardly expect a primary challenge against Obama; however, I do expect much lesser numbers to come out and vote for “The One” as he has gone from “Hope & Change” to a complete failure as President.

GOP House Speaker John Boehner stated that Obama is worried about his next election and from the looks of  his job approval  poll numbers, Obamacare and how he is handling the economy,  he should be.Obama is even politicizing the debt limit negotiations by trying to extend it past next years election so that it wont be a campaign issue. The fact of the matter is, it is just the kind of issue that should be.

Boehner also criticized President Obama for recommending a debt ceiling deal be timed to last beyond the next election season.

“The president’s worried about his next election, but my God, shouldn’t we be worried about the country?” Boehner said. “I’m not worried about the next election. I told the president months ago: Forget about the next election!”

The administration though has indicated that the debt ceiling should be raised at least through 2012, in order to take politics out of the negotiation.

Just curious, if Progressive Democrats and Liberals voted against Obama is a primary challenge, would that make them racists?

Obama in Serious Poll Trouble … Rasmussen: Barack Obama 41%, Ron Paul 37% … Even the LEFT Leaving Obama … Presidential Primary?

Obama in serious poll trouble … Even the LEFT is leaving Obama and threatening a Democrat  Presidential Primary. Obamanation, not happy campers.

Once Ron Paul was considered a fringe candidate … now he trails Obama by only 4%.

How is it that a Republican primary long shot like Ron Paul can be so competitive in a hypothetical match up against President Barack Obama? It shows just how weak and disenchanted that Americans have become with Obama. The saying these days is ABO … “Anybody but Obama” in 2012. Obama poll numbers are sinking fast as seen at Real Clear Politics.

In a recent Rasmussen poll, the  hypothetical match up of Obama against Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) has Obama  barely ahead by 41% to 37%. Obama only leads by 4% in such a head to head match up and even worse, the incumbent president get only 41% of the vote. Any incumbent polling less than 50% in a head to head match up is terrible news, but 41% is disastrous.

Congressman Ron Paul may be a long shot to win the Republican presidential nomination, but he runs competitively with President Obama right now.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters shows Paul picking up 37% of the vote, while the president earns 41%.

But the real story in the numbers is that the president continues to earn between 41% and 49% of the vote no matter which Republican is mentioned as a potential opponent. This suggests that the race remains a referendum on the incumbent more than anything else.

Barack Obama is in real trouble whether his minions want to admit it or not and its not just the Right and Independents that he has to worry about. Now the LEFT is starting to leave “The One”. Obama has been an unmitigated disaster with the economy and his poll numbers are beginning to reflect it. His economic and job recovery has been non-existent. However, because there has been mo job recovery under his watch, Obama has had to make some compromises that has infuriated the LEFT.

A recent CNN Poll shows a drop in liberal support that has pushed Obama’s approval rating down even further Obama has a 45% approval and 54% disapproval rating.

The full poll can be seen HERE.

President Barack Obama’s approval rating is down to 45 percent, driven in part by growing dissatisfaction on the left with the president’s track record in office, according to a new national survey.

According to the poll, the president’s 45 percent approval rating is down three points from June. Fifty-four percent of people questioned disapprove of how Obama’s handling his duties, up six points from last month. His 54 percent disapproval rating ties the all-time high in CNN polling that the president initially reached just before last year’s midterm elections.

How bad is it for Obama? Even folks an the far LEFT like Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) says that it is a good idea to subject Barack Obama to a Democrat Presidential primary. Wouldn’t that be rich.What would happen if the LEFT turned on Obama and actually forced him into a primary? I dare Sanders and the LEFT to put their Democrat primary candidate where their mouth is. The LEFT is irate as Obama has done the unthinkable to the LEFT, touched the liberal Democrat Holy trinity of social security, Medicare and Medicaid.

SANDERS: Brian, believe me, I wish I had the answer to your question. Let me just suggest this. I think there are millions of Americans who are deeply disappointed in the president, who believe that with regard to Social Security and other things, he said one thing as a candidate and is doing something very much else as a president [...]

So my suggestion is, I think one of the reasons the president has made the move so far to the right is that there is no primary opposition to him and I think it would do this country a good deal of service if people started thinking about candidates out there to begin contrasting a progressive agenda as opposed to what Obama believes he’s doing. [...] So I would say to Ryan, discouragement is not an option. I think it would be a good idea if President Obama faced some primary opposition.

UPDATE I: More from The Nation … THE LEFT IS PISSED!

What will the LEFT do in 2012? How could they possibly have the enthusiasm for Obama in 2012 as they did in 2008? The answer is, they can’t. Hope & Change does not even exist for the Far LEFT, let alone the rest of us. Obama made promises to the LEFT and his political agenda has been such an abject failure, that now Obama must now try and compromise on such liberal Holy Grail items like SS, Medicare and Medicaid are on the list of things to cut.

President Obama and his political counselors do not appear to recognize or respect the depth of the disenchantment among Democrats who fear he is preparing to abandon the commitments made by Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and generations of Democratic leaders to not just preserve but expand Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.

But if they are serious about that fall campaign, they are going to need to recognize and respond to the disenchantment among Democratic activists whose enthusiasm level will decide the fate of Obama’s 2012 campaign. Even if there is no primary challenge, Obama must reconnect with liberal Democrats and progressive independents if he hopes to be reelected. And he will not do so by cutting a deal with Republicans to cut Democratic “legacy programs” such as Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.

US Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) Says He is Considering Congressional Run in Another State

Liberals just can’t leave politics …

US Representative Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) stated that he is considering a Congressional run for office in another state. When it comes to Dennis Kucinich, one wonders where he might try another planet instead. Ohio lost two congressional seats in the reapportionment due to the 2010 U.S. Census.  The result is that this will reduce Ohio to 16 congressional seats and 18 electoral votes come 2012. Kucinich is said to be eying the Congressional seat in the  liberal state of Washington.

“If I don’t have anywhere I can run in Ohio, I have to start thinking about what my options are,” Kucinich in an interview with a television station in Lakewood, Ohio. “I prefer to continue serving the district I’ve served for as long as I have.  But that’s not my choice to make in terms of the map.”

Ohio is losing two congressional seats in the redistricting process, and Kucinich’s is likely on the chopping block. If that happens he could end up drawn into a district with Rep. Betty Sutton (D-Ohio) or find himself having to run against Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio) if he wanted to continue representing the state.

It will be rather interesting to see whether Washington opens its arms to the far Left 8 term Congressman or whether carpetbagging is deemed unpopular. The pathetic aspect of this is that liberal politicians just cannot leave politics. The private sector where results are expected is just to much for them. They just can’t get it through their heads that being a US Rep is not a lifetime appointment.

Liberal Radio Talk Show Host Mike Malloy Says “So when does Seal Unit 6, … Drop in on George Bush?

THE LEFT … AS CRAZY AS THEY’VE EVER BEEN! THERE IS A REASON WHY THEY ARE CALLED MOONBATS.

Liberal radio talk show host Mike Malloy made a not so vale threat the other day on former President George W. Bush. Malloy basically incited violence against a former president and stated the following, “So when does Seal Unit 6, or whatever it’s called, drop in on George Bush? Bush was responsible for a lot more death, innocent death, than bin Laden. Wasn’t he, or am I wrong here?”

See the VIDEO/listen to the audio at Real Clear Politics.

NewsBusters has the transcript:

MIKE MALLOY: I have heard some commentators talk about the fact that, all the lives that have been lost in this war on terror, and now the summary execution of the person responsible. But as soon as I heard that, I thought, well, bin Laden really didn’t have anything to do — did he? — with Iraq. And I think his only relationship with Afghanistan was geographical.

But Iraq — all the death in Iraq was not caused by bin Laden. The death in Iraq was caused by George W. Bush. Five thousand Americans, tens of thousands permanently damaged and shot to pieces, a million Iraqis dead — that wasn’t bin Laden. That was George Bush. So when does Seal Unit 6, or whatever it’s called, drop in on George Bush? Bush was responsible for a lot more death, innocent death, than bin Laden. Wasn’t he, or am I wrong here?

Could any one be more wrong? Let’s just hope some Secret Service men make a visit upon Mike Malloy and pose some questions to this lib as to what he meant by his comments. No, this is not freedom of speech, because you are not allowed to yell fire in a movie theater, bomb in an airport or make threats against a President, past or present.

What would the MSM be reporting if a conservative radio talk show host made such a comment about Barack Obama? We would be hearing about the mean spirited hate and a Tea Party reference as well.

Obama Being Ripped by the LEFT, Michael Moore & Louis Farrakhan for Military Action Against Libya

Is Barack Obama trying to become a wartime GWB President?

One had to wonder what the far LEFT’s reaction would be to their President becoming a military initiating President. Barack Obama was the same person who as a candidate stated he would get the US out of war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now Obama has implicated the US in a new military action in Libya. Is the LEFT going to call this Obama’s war for oil?

Pic Hat Tip: AWD

It did not take long after the 100′s of tomahawk missiles were shot into Libya for anti-war film maker and Leftist Michael Moore to rip Obama a new one. As reported at The Hill, Moore unleashed a string on tweets comparing the U.S. military’s mission in Libya to Iraq and Afghanistan. Don Suber has much more reaction of the LEFT of Obama’s imperialism and illegal war.

It’s only cause we’re defending the Libyan people from a tyrant! That’s why we bombed the Saudis last wk! Hahaha. Pentagon=comedy
And we always follow the French’s lead! Next thing you know, we’ll have free health care & free college! Yay war!
We’ve had a “no-fly zone” over Afghanistan for over 9 yrs. How’s that going? #WINNING !
Khadaffymust’ve planned 9/11! #excuses
Khadaffymust’ve had WMD! #excusesthatwork
Khadaffymust’ve threatened to kill somebody’s daddy! #daddywantedjeb

I will give Michael Moore credit, where credit is due … at least Moore is not being a hypocrit. Did I just say that? Moore’ss tirade against Obama and also stating that Obama should return his 2009 Nobel Peace prize.
