Good Grief, The Pollster in Chief Obama Asks His Partisan, Kool-Aid Drinking Supporters to Grade His Performance
BARACK OBAMA, LOST IN SMALLNESS YET AGAIN … ARE YOU SERIOUS?
How desperate and clueless is the 2012 Reelect Obama team? Because Barack Obama cannot run on his record, it would appear that he is going to run on what his base drools over. Four year into the Barack Obama Presidency, and his reelection minions need to ask his Kool-Aid drinking sycophants whether he is doing a good job and grade his performance? Wasn’t it Obama in 2008 who stated these are not ‘red” states, these are not “blue” states, this is the United States? So much for that philosophy as he panders to his extreme LEFT base to see what he needs to stress in the upcoming Presidential election against Republican Mitt Romney. The 2008 Obama election team were lauded for their efforts, the 2012 version is nothing more than the ‘Gang who could not shoot straight.’
President Obama’s campaign is calling on supporters to grade its performance amid a difficult early June for his reelection bid against presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney.
“This campaign is ramping up, and the decisions we make right now will shape our path to victory in November,” said campaign manager Jim Messina in an email to supporters sent Saturday night.
“That’s why I want your input, because you are the ones building this campaign on the ground in your community. We want to know from you what’s working, what we could be doing better, what you care about, and what you’re hearing about the President and this campaign,” said Messina.
The following is a link to the Obama/Biden how are we doing poll. Which of President Obama’s accomplishments are you most proud of? Just curious, where is the choice for none of the above or nothing?
- Ending “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”
- Investing in clean energy jobs [editors note ... You mean like Solyndra and the numerous other green energy companies who were owned by Obama donors that went belly up?]
- Passing the Affordable Care Act Passing the Recovery Act [editors note: You mean Obamacare where 55% want it repealed and only 39% are for it].
- Raising standards for fuel economy and air quality
- Reforming Wall Street Reforming student loans
- Rescuing the U.S. auto industry [editors note: Obama pulled a Romney/Bain Capital and laid off/reduced the number of dealerships in order to rescue it].
- Responsibly ending the war in Iraq
- Standing up for equal pay
- Supporting same-sex marriage
- Taking the fight to al-Qaeda . [editors note: How is this any different from what GWB did?]
Hmm, notice you do not see any option to choose about job creation, recovering from the recession, lowering the budget, lowering gas prices or the success of all those jobs from the $787 billion stimulus?

CBO: Barack Obama Stimulus Plan May Have Cost As Much As $4.1 Million Per Job
Direct from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) comes the following reports and further displays the Obama waste of tax payer dollars. Barack Obama and his reelection minions have the audacity to attack Mitt Romney when it comes to jobs and business, really? $4.1 million per job, way to go Barack.
When [the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act] was being considered, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation estimated that it would increase budget deficits by $787 billion between fiscal years 2009 and 2019. CBO now estimates that the total impact over the 2009–2019 period will amount to about $831 billion.
By CBO’s estimate, close to half of that impact occurred in fiscal year 2010, and more than 90 percent of ARRA’s budgetary impact was realized by the end of March 2012. CBO has estimated the law’s impact on employment and economic output using evidence about the effects of previous similar policies and drawing on various mathematical models that represent the workings of the economy. …
On that basis CBO estimates that ARRA’s policies had the following effects in the first quarter of calendar year 2012 compared with what would have occurred otherwise:
– They raised real (inflation-adjusted) gross domestic product (GDP) by between 0.1 percent and 1.0 percent,
– They lowered the unemployment rate by between 0.1 percentage points and 0.8 percentage points,
– They increased the number of people employed by between 0.2 million and 1.5 million,
– They increased the number of full-time-equivalent jobs by 0.3 million to 1.9 million. (Increases in FTE jobs include shifts from part-time to full-time work or overtime and are thus generally larger than increases in the number of employed workers.)
As stated at The Enterprise blog, so without the stimulus, there would be anywhere from 200,000 to 1.5 million fewer people employed right now? That means the current cost-per-job created is somewhere between $4.1 million and $540,000. With this type of Obamanomics in play, just how much will America go into debt putting the millions of unemployed back to work?

VP Joe Biden Blames Bush For West Virginia Voters Choosing Federal Prisoner Inmate No. 11593-051 Keith Judd Over Barack Obama
Barack Obama, Lost in Smallness yet again. This sad administration just cannot stop blaming George W. Bush, what a pathetic example of responsibility and leadership.
Never at a loss for ignorant and foolish comments, VP Joe Biden actually had the audacity to blame GWB for the reason why West Virginia voters chose by over 40% federal inmate # 11593-051 Keith Judd Over Barack Obama in the WV primaries.
From The Politico, Biden does not blame the people. Actually Joe, the people are not to blame, you and Obama are. Who promised Americans “Hope & Change”, who promised them with a $787 billion stimulus and under 8% unemployment rate? Who promised the American people transparency? Who promised jobs but instead gave America the government take over of healthcare? Who promised to cut the budget but instead made government spending completely out of control?
“Look, I come from a household where whenever there’s a recession, somebody around my grandpop or my dad’s table lost a job.
“A brother, a sister a friend, a neighbor. When you’re out of work, man, it’s a depression. And a lot of people are still hurting because of this god-awful recession we inherited that cost 8.4 million jobs before we could really get going. And so I don’t blame people, they’re frustrated, they’re angry.”
He added, “At the end of the day, they’re going to decide is the way back to their employment, is the way back to them being able to have a job and raise a family, is it under the value-set and the ideas of Romney, or is it under ours. And we feel confident that we’ll do just fine.”
In the end it will most likely be this lack of leadership that sways Independents away from a 2012 Obama/Biden ticket. After all, how lame is it to continuously blame others 4 years later? If one does not have what it takes in 4 years to turn around the economy and make good on the promises they made to get elected, they do not deserve reelection.
Obama and Biden are so quick to talk about what they inherited, how come they never praise Bush for inheriting all the intel that made it possible to track down Bin Laden? Just saying.

Former VP Dick Cheney Calls Obama an ‘Unmitigated Disaster to the country’ … As They Say, If the “Unmitigated” Shoe Fits …
Well is the “unmitigated disaster” fits Mr President …
Dick Cheney can best be described as new heart, same passion … Just three weeks after Dick Cheney’s heart transplant surgery, the former Vice President made the following comment referring to President Barack Obama, “He has been an unmitigated disaster to the country.” Cheney went on to say that he could not remember a more important time to defeat an incumbent President like Barack Obama. Cheney certainly knows how to drive the LEFT crazy. However, if one actually looks at Obama’s record, even the LEFT, they know that Obama has been a failure as President.
Dick Cheney, just weeks after undergoing heart transplant surgery, plunged back into the political theater Saturday — praising presumptive nominee Mitt Romney while slamming President Obama as an “unmitigated disaster.”
The tough words came during an hour-and-15-minute talk at the Wyoming Republican Party state convention in Cheyenne on Saturday.
He sat in a plush chair throughout the long chat with daughter Liz Cheney and looked decidedly healthier than recent appearances where he has been gaunt and used a cane.
The United States has record federal debt, record people of food stamps, 8.2% unemployment, a 30 year low of employer participation in the work force, wasted Stimulus tax payer funds, continued housing foreclosures and gas prices doubled during his tenure. Add in Obamacare, the failed green energy scandals like Solyndra and the “Fast & Furious” scandal. So how is Obama not an “unmitigated disaster”?

49% of Americans Trust Romney with the Economy, Only 39% Trust President Obama’s Obamanomics
Obamanomics a bust: When reviewing the #1 issue for the 2012 elections, only 39% trust Obama with the economy …
President Barack Obama has a huge obstacle to overcome with regards to the state of the US economy and his reelection chances in 2012. The economy/jobs is the number one issue and Obama’s policies have been found wanting. Obama’s first term in office has been a disaster when it comes to the economy, jobs and spending. In a recent Rasmussen poll, 49% of Americans trust Romney when it comes to the US economy, only a mere 39% trust Obama.
Voters now have more confidence in presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney than in President Obama when it comes to the economy, but on other major issues facing the nation, the two men continue to run nearly even.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey asks Likely U.S. Voters whom they trust more on five key issues, and when it comes to the economy, 49% say Romney versus 39% who trust the president more. Twelve percent (12%) are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
With an unemployment rate still at 8.2%, a poor showing of job creation in March 2012, an unsustainable record federal debt, waisted tax payer dollars with the Obama stimulus and a failed green energy agenda that has invested a lot of govt $’s with few jobs to show, is it any wonder why few have faith in Obama when it comes to the economy. Add to the discussion that the true unemployment rate is closer to 12% and the underemployment rate to a high of 20.3%
What is the #2 issue for voters, health care of course. When it comes to Obamacare, a new high of 61% expect the government take over of healthcare to be repealed. As the US Supreme Court reviews the Constitutionality, 54% of voters expect the SCOTUS to overturn Obamacare.
