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?

Obamanomics: Barack Obama’s Mouthpiece Jay Carney Says Economy “Vastly Improved” Since Obama Took Office
Welcome to more Obama in Wonderland …
In honor of Baghdad Bob and all the spin, stretching of the truth and lies that he was known for comes Obama White House Press Secretary Jay Carney. This Obama minion and tool actually has the audacity to say that the economy is vastly improved since Barack Obama took office. Really, who knew? How do these people make such comments and keep a straight face?
Relax, all is well … the economy is vastly improved
Watch the VIDEO at RCP and see transcript below:
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney: “Well, two things remain uncontestably true. The economy is vastly improved from what it was when Barack Obama was sworn into office as president. We were in economic free-fall. There were predictions that we were headed to the second Great Depression. We were losing up to, over 700,000 jobs a month, we were contracting at greater than 6 percent — our economy was. So, the economy has improved. It has not improved enough.
“Well, there’s no question that we face headwinds, and the president has been very direct about that. And we need to do everything we can, across the front, to ensure we’re doing what we can to spur growth, spur job creation.”
HUH??? What alternate universe do these people live in? What does this Administration think they are going to campaign on in 2012? Does Obama actually think he is going to get away with “Hope & Change”, the economy is better and let his have another four years to have his policies work? Seriously, what planet are these people from?
VASTLY IMPROVED! As noted at Michelle Malkin.com, the unemployment, gas prices and other numbers hardly play into Obama’s narrative.
When Obama took office the unemployment rate was 7.2 percent — today, two and a half years later, it’s 9.2 percent. Gas was about $1.79 a gallon when Obama took office. Today it’s $3.68. There are around 13 million more people on food stamps today than there were in January of 2009.

Gallup Poll: Republican Candidate Extends Lead Over Barack Obama To 8 Points, 47% To 39%
ABO … Barack Obama … “You’ve Lost that “Hope & Change” feeling.
It is safe to say that the “kill Osama” bounce is over and the American voters are strictly looking at the economy, the lack of jobs and the poor job that Obama is doing in handling the debt limit discussions. According to the most recent Gallup poll,registered voters are now more likely to vote for the “republican candidate” over Barack Obama by a 47% to 39% margin. The poll shows that Obama is trailing badly with independent voters.
Registered voters by a significant margin now say they are more likely to vote for the “Republican Party’s candidate for president” than for President Barack Obama in the 2012 election, 47% to 39%. Preferences had been fairly evenly divided this year in this test of Obama’s re-election prospects.
As the economy gets worse, unemployment is up to 9.2% and Obama continually tries to play scare politics with the debt limit, more and more Americans are saying … ABO, anyone but Obama. The reality is that the poll numbers are trending badly for Obama as Americans are starting to tag “The One” with owning the economy. When only 25% of Americans believe that the country is headed in the right direction and 68 believe wrong track, an incumbent president has a real problem. Come the 2012 election voters are going to be faced with the question, do they want more of the same of the past four years? Barack Obama is going to be faced with a track record that he cannot run from, nor blame GWB.

Arab & Middle East View of America Worse Under President Barack Obama than George W. Bush
So GWB was a cowboy, eh? Looks like the Arab world respected the man in the hat more than the one with the teleprompter.
Didn’t Barack Obama promise that relations with the Arab would were going to change under his leadership? Who knew that meant for the worse. Well, actually many of us, but then again we did not vote for the carnival barker who promised “Hope & Change”. From Salon comes the following, what a shock this must be to the LEFT. But Barack Obama promised he would make us more liked on the Arab Street.
I’ve written numerous times over the last year about rapidly worsening perceptions of the U.S. in the Muslim world, including a Pew poll from April finding that Egyptians view the U.S. more unfavorably now than they did during the Bush presidency. A new poll released today of six Arab nations – Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Morocco — contains even worse news on this front:

Barack Obama’s 20 Year Pastor & Mentor: Rev. Wright Tells Church Youth All Whites Are Liars
More from President Barack Obama’s Pastor and Mentor for 20+ years … WHITE PEOPLE ARE LIARS!
This comes from the man who had the ear of Barack Obama for over 20 years. One has to wonder about this blatant racism that is espoused from the mouth of Reverend Wright. It’s not like Wright has done this all of a sudden, he has been doing it for years, including when Obama attended his church. Imagine, just imagine if a white, Republican President had attended a similar type church that made such racist comments.
Check out the VIDEO below where Wright continually tells his congregation that “WHITE PEOPLE ARE LIARS”. What love coming from this supposed Man of God. Is this where Barack Obama learned “Hope & Change”?
When will American and the MSM hold Obama to the same standard as they would a Republican president or candidate?
