Liberal buyer remorse over Barack Hussein Obama
It seems that more and more liberals are figuring out that our Dear Leader is not bringing about the “change” they had hoped for.
First we have admitted Obama voter Mort Zuckerman, editor in chief of U.S. News & World Report.
This health-care plan is going to be a fiscal disaster for the country. Most of the country wanted to deal with costs, not expansion of coverage. This is going to raise costs dramatically.
In the campaign, he said he would change politics as usual. He did change them. It’s now worse than it was. I’ve now seen the kind of buying off of politicians that I’ve never seen before. It’s politically corrupt and it’s starting at the top. It’s revolting.
…
One business leader said to me, “In the Clinton administration, the policy people were at the center, and the political people were on the sideline. In the Obama administration, the political people are at the center, and the policy people are on the sidelines.”
I’m very disappointed. We endorsed him. I voted for him. I supported him publicly and privately.
…
Let me tell you what a major leader said to me recently. “We are convinced,” he said, “that he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned,” he said “that he is not strong to support his friends.”
The political leadership of the world is very, very dismayed. He better turn it around. The Democrats are going to get killed in this election. Jesus, looks what’s happening in Massachusetts.
…
I can’t predict things two years from now, but if he continues on the downward spiral he is on, he won’t be reelected. In the meantime, the Democrats have recreated the Republican Party. And when I say Democrats, I mean the Obama administration
Next is the far left liberal “economist” Paul Zuckerman.
I’m pretty close to giving up on Mr. Obama, who seems determined to confirm every doubt I and others ever had about whether he was ready to fight for what his supporters believed in.
Barack Hussein Obama’s “change” is nothing but warmed over failed socialist ideas. This is why independents, and 20% of democrats, in Massachusetts, who overwhelmingly voted for him in 2008, rejected Obama’s policies very soundly by electing a Republican who’s stated goal was to block BHO’s horrible and budget take over of the American health care system.
Update: Tech Pundit Jason Calacanis, who was a big Obama supporter just said on the latest episode of TWiT that he is very disappointed with Obama’s lack of leadership.
At risk Democrats seeking to extend the GW Bush tax cuts
This bit of news must be like a capitalist stake through Obama’s socialist heart.
The so called “leadership” of congressional democrats and our Dear Leader would much rather see across the board tax hikes place on the American People by letting the G.W. Bush era tax cuts expire.
If Barack Hussein Obama is at all interested in keeping his promise of “no new taxes” for anyone making less than $250,000 a year, he has no choice but to call for an extension of the President George W. Bush tax cuts.
Not the change you were looking for

As I have pointed out before, our Dear Leader‘s “jobs created or saved” numbers are smoke and mirrors at best.
So how is the Obama White House going to deal with the case of fraud they tried to foist on the American people? Well, based on past behavior, openness and transparency wasn’t anywhere on their list.
Brett Blackledge, of the AP, explains how Team Lightbringer is going to hide their incompetence now.
The White House has abandoned its controversial method of counting jobs under President Barack Obama’s economic stimulus, making it impossible to track the number of jobs saved or created with the $787 billion in recovery money.
Despite mounting a vigorous defense of its earlier count of more than 640,000 jobs credited to the stimulus, even after numerous errors were identified, the Obama administration now is making it easier to give the stimulus credit for hiring. It’s no longer about counting a job as saved or created; now it’s a matter of counting jobs funded by the stimulus.
That means that any stimulus money used to cover payroll will be included in the jobs credited to the program, including pay raises for existing employees and pay for people who never were in jeopardy of losing their positions.
That’s right. The “open and transparent” Obama administration is now going to take credit for “saving or creating” jobs that already exist.
What is clear, is that Obama’s team of Socialists are trying desperately to hide obvious fact that the democrat “porkulus” bill was an utter and complete failure at the stated goal of “stimulating” the economy. It has been a job killer, not a job creator, and the Team Lightbringer and their co-conspirators in the democrat congressional “leadership” are now trying to make it impossible to accurately track the effect of their pork laden payouts have on the job market, and the economy.
Change comes to Massachusetts!

It’s a bright and glorious day here in the People’s Commonwealth! Over 20% of the registered democrats here joined the sane people and voted for Republican Scott Brown to fill the seat of the late Teddy Kennedy in the United States Senate.
This wasn’t just a case of the democrat Martha Coakley running a really lousy campaign (which she did) or the fact that she was a weak candidate (she was); this was also a direct message to our Dear Leader, Barack Hussein Obama. The voters of Massachusetts just let BHO know that Socialism isn’t the change we were looking for.
How could this happen in the oh so liberal Massachusetts? We residents of the Commonwealth got a sneak preview of ObamaAmerica with our own worthless Governor, Deval “Together We Can” Patrick. Patrick had zero executive experience (none in the private sector or in any government job) when he took over the Governor’s office. His socialist policies, along with his kowtowing to the state employee unions and raising taxes while the state hemorrhages high tech jobs, have given us a unique perspective of what allowing our Dear Leader to implement his socialist policies will do to the country.
This election also proves that Obama has no coattails. Coakley was third democrat candidate that Obama when out to stump for who lost! Yup, Obama is a three time loser! Actually he’s four for four in loses if you count the trip he and Empress Michelle made (on separate planes) to Copenhagen in their attempt to bring the Olympics (and all that lovely graft money) home to Chicago.
Obama has a choice to make now. Clinton or Carter? When Billy Jeff Clinton got his ass handed to him in the 1994 midterm elections, he ditched the far left, went centrist and saved his image and got re-elected. The man actually managed to take personal credit for signing most of the Republican’s “Contract with America” list into law, completely stealing their thunder! Jimmy “Worst President in the last 50 years” Carter on the other hand descended even farther into a far left death spiral, resulting in him getting his ass handed to him in the 1980 elections.
Which way will Obama go? Personally, my take is that he’s no Bill Clinton. Barack Hussein Obama has never held a real job in his life and has never had a single executive position before becoming the head of the executive branch of the United States government. He’s been wrapped in a far left socialist cocoon his entire life. So ya, I’m betting he’s gonna go Carter big time, with the same results.
Brown-Coakley Election day
It’s special election day here in the People’s Commonwealth. Republican Scott Brown is running against democrat Martha Coakley. The AG who the state police union won’t support (they are backing Brown).
Let’s review what is happing out there. First off, we have Coakley supporters not only denying a citizen his First Amendment Rights, but are likely committing assault also.
What is about the First Amendment that democrats just don’t like?
Next, we have Coakley supporters committing election law violations in Dorcester and elsewhere.
In Lawrence, MA blank absentee ballots are being handed out. It’s the day of the election. Why are blank absentee ballots being handed out areas that trend highly democrat? Personally, I smell the stench of ACORN here.
Ya, that ACORN. The one our Dear Leader, Barack Hussein Obama gave “get out the vote” classes to back when he was a “community organizer” and is currently under investigation for massive vote fraud in at least a half dozen states.
Well, as a wintry election day dawns in Massachusetts, I’ll believe it when I see it. If all but one of those polls are right, Scott Brown now has a lead well beyond the margin of error. But, as that Boston Globe ‘Dead Heat!’ headline suggests, it’s not necessarily beyond the margin of Acorn, the margin of lawyer, and the margin of Franken-style recounts. On the other hand, if you’re minded to (as MSNBC’s electokleptomaniac Ed Schultz recommends) steal the vote, you don’t really want to have to steal it big, on a Mugabe-esque scale.
Update: Michelle Malkin’s Massachusetts Vote Fraud thread.
Time to turn Massachusetts from blue to Brown
From a buddy of mine.
Don’t forget to vote on Tuesday the 19th additionally please visit the Scott Brown web site at: http://www.brownforussenate.com/ and perhaps lend a helping hand.
Just a reminder, this photo shows what democrat Martha Coakley thinks of the free press. She probably thinks less of the peasants who are supposed to “anoint” her to the Senate.
democrats against the First Amendment
Filed under: Free Speech, Politics, The Peoples Commonweath, When democrats attack
Yet another case of democrat‘s utter contempt for a Free Press (at least when it isn’t acting in their benefit).
Weekly Standard reporter John McCormack tried to question democrat Martha Coakley out side a fund raiser in Washington, D.C. (Coakley is running for the Senate in Massachusetts, where her Republican opponent has no problem raising funds) and was “roughed up” for daring to exercise his First Amendment rights.
Don’t expect this type of behavior from democrat Martha Coakley if she gets elected to the US Senate.
More at Frugal Cafe, Hot Air & Michelle Malkin’s site.
Update: Coakley aide Michael Meehan admits he shoved Weekly Standard reporter John McCormack to the ground.

Some good stuff I’ve seen on Twitter:
“Bill Clinton coming to MA for Martha Coakley & the SEIU is paying for attack ads for Martha against Scott Brown. Sexual predators & thugs for Martha!” — Kathleen Beaulieu
I wonder if the commedians in Massachusetts are making any jokes about Martha Coakley’s slutty flight attendent look?
Martha Coakley can’t get enough money from the traditional Dem establishment to match you, so she is going to SEIU for a 700k ad buy. — Patrick Ruffini
Even lefties at CNN are waking up to Obama’s lies

This is just a short step from “I’m as mad as Hell and I’m not taking it anymore!”
Update: A big old “Hi ya!” to all the folks arriving here from some email thread. I’m waiting for it hit my inbox. 🙂
What is it that the democrats are afraid to show the American People?
House and Senate democrat “leaders” are planning on keeping deliberations secret as they work out the compromise “heath care” bill behind closed doors.
Openness and transparency in the political process. That is what the democrats ran on, but are refusing to implement.
The reality is the the democrats really don’t want any honest and open debate. If that happens, the American people could see exactly what they are trying to shove down their throats without their knowledge.
A wise woman spoke the truth when she said, “They win in the dark; we win in the light.”
The last thing the democrats want is the ObamaCare bill to be brought out of the cover of darkness and into the cleansing light of the public.
