55 Percent of Likely Voters Find ‘Socialist’ an Accurate Label of Obama?
The latest poll by Democracy Corps, the firm of James Carville and Stan Greenberg, has Republicans leading on the generic ballot among likely voters, 48 percent to 42 percent.
Deep in the poll, they ask, “Now, I am going to read you a list of words and phrases which people use to describe political figures. For each word or phrase, please tell me whether it describes Barack Obama very well, well, not too well, or not well at all.”
On “too liberal,” 35 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 21 percent say “well,” 21 percent say “not too well,” and 17 percent say “not well at all.” In other words, 56 percent of likely voters consider Obama too liberal.
When asked about “a socialist,” 33 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 22 percent say “well,” 15 percent say “not too well,” and 25 percent say “not well at all.”
In other words, 55 percent of likely voters think “socialist” is a reasonably accurate way of describing Obama.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday (7/9/10) shows that 26% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-three percent (43%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -17.
Mitt Romney:
“President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and their team have failed the American people, and that is why their majority will soon be out the door.”
June 29, 2010 -- Two days before President Obama would plug in his teleprompter to deliver his first major speech on immigration, a bloody gun battle was going down in Juarez, Mexico. At the same time, just across the river in El Paso, Texas, City Manager Joyce Wilson was in a meeting with five other City Hall employees. As they discussed business, a bullet barreled through her office wall, passed between book shelves, and shattered a picture frame. When Wilson and co-workers realized a bullet had been fired into her office, they dove for the floor and crawled out. Another bullet struck Assistant City Manager Pat Adauto’s office on the ninth floor. Five other bullets would pierce the building.
Wilson and colleagues were lucky… this time. No one was injured. However, just 800 to1000 yards away in Juarez, after 40 rounds had exploded, one Mexican Federale officer and an innocent bystander were killed. Another officer was wounded.
Here is video of Adauto’s ninth floor office showing bullet hole, views from office across the U.S. border to ‘S Mart’ (business equivalent to WalMart) in Juarez, Mexico where shootings took place:
Outraged at this latest bout of violence, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott fired off a letter to the White House, beseeching Obama for more troops on their border:
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President,
Deadly violence from drug cartels and transnational gangs in Mexico is knocking on the United States’ door with ever increasing frequency.
Yesterday, gunfire from the cartels pierced that threshold and struck City Hall in El Paso. Fortunately no one was injured or killed. But that good fortune was not the result of effective border control -- it was mere luck that the bullets struck buildings rather than bodies.
Luck and good fortune are not effective border enforcement policies. The shocking reality of cross border gunfire proves the cold reality: American lives are at risk. As the attached news article notes: “More than 1,300 people have been murdered in Juárez this year as a war continues relentlessly between the Juárez and Sinaloa drug cartels.” Americans must be protected as this deadly war bulges at our border.
Law enforcement officials with the Texas Department of Public Safety and your own U.S. Customs and Border Protection will reveal the hard truth. Our state is under constant assault from illegal activity threatening a porous border.
The time for talk has passed. The time for action is now. The need is urgent. Each day that passes increases the likelihood that an American life will be lost because of the federal government’s failure to secure the border.
This threat demands immediate and effective action by your Administration to secure our border. As the Attorney General of Texas, I urge you to make border security your top priority so that no more innocent lives are lost to border violence.
June 30, 2010 – CNN’s Jack Cafferty spoke to TV viewers to lower expectations regarding hopes for any stellar illegal immigration solutions coming from the presidential pulpit:
July 1, 2010: Speaking in campaign mode at American University in Washington, D.C., Obama delivered a speech crafted to razzle-dazzle a key component of his base supporters – the Hispanic caucus. It was long on rhetoric and short on specifics. While calling for bi-partisan cooperation to work on comprehensive immigration reform, Obama rebuffed Republicans. I listened closely to hear if Obama would, once again, blatantly misrepresent Arizona’s immigration law SB 1070 and he did:
“These laws also have the potential of violating the rights of innocent American citizens and legal residents, making them subject to possible stops or questioning because of what they look like or how they sound,” he said.
Obama’s continual portrayal of SB 1070 as racial profiling is intentionally misleading and manipulative. Arizona’s immigration law mirrors federal law except it’s worded even more meticulously to specifically avoid racial profiling. (Governor Brewer has made the SB 1070 Peace Officer Training video/handouts available on line.) To see a portion Obama’s immigration speech click here.
[...]Advocates on both sides of the issue doubt a bill can pass this year. Republican leaders dispute Mr. Obama’s claim the borders are secure, and say no immigration bill can pass until they are.
“The president can make progress on this issue, but it will take more than a speech,” said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican. “If he would take amnesty off the table and make a real commitment to border and interior security, he will find strong bipartisan support.”
Mr. Obama and Democratic leaders, though, argue legalizing illegal immigrants has to be done at the same time, both for workability and because they fear if the borders are secured first, it might sap momentum from the push for legalization.
“Our borders are just too vast for us to be able to solve the problem only with fences and border patrols,” Mr. Obama said. “It won’t work.”
Immigration rights activists were generally happy with the speech, saying it touched on the issues they wanted to hear.
“We have been waiting for the president to lean forward and push with us on the immigration issue the same way he did as a presidential candidate. We hope this is the start of a sustained push,” said Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez, Illinois Democrat.[...]
July 1, 2010 (afternoon): FederalJudge Allows Mexico to Have a Voice in Court Case Against U.S. Immigration Law
Mexico gets its say in one of the lawsuits challenging Arizona’s immigration enforcement law.
[...]
Mexico says it wants to defend its citizens’ rights and that the law would lead to racial profiling and hinder trade and tourism. It also says the law would hinder work against drug trafficking and related violence.
[...]
Until recently, Mexican law made illegal immigration a criminal offense — anyone arrested for the violation could be fined, imprisoned for up to two years and deported. Mexican lawmakers changed that in 2008 to make illegal immigration a civil violation like it is in the United States, but their law still reads an awful lot like Arizona’s.
Arizona’s policy, which President Felipe Calderon derided during a recent U.S. trip as “discriminatory,” states police can’t randomly stop people and demand papers, and the law prohibits racial profiling.
Mexican law, however, requires law enforcement officials “to demand that foreigners prove their legal presence in the country before attending to any issues.”
Amnesty International recently issued a report claiming illegal immigrants in Mexico — typically from Central America — face abuse, rape and kidnappings, and that Mexican police do little to stop it. When illegal immigration was a criminal offense in Mexico, officials were known to seek bribes from suspects to keep them out of jail.

July 1, 2010 10:07 PM MDT: Twelve miles from Nogales, Arizona, in a dark and deserted drug transport corridor near Hermosillo, Mexico, large-scale mayhem and murder wait…
HERMOSILLO, MEXICO — A massive gun battle between rival drug and migrant-trafficking gangs near the U.S. border left 21 people dead on Thursday, prosecutors said.
The clash occurred in a sparsely populated area about 12 miles (20 kilometers) from the Arizona border — a prime corridor for immigrant and drug smuggling.
Sonora’s Attorney General’s Office said in a statement that nine people were captured by police at the scene of the shooting, six of whom had been wounded in the confrontation. Authorities at the scene found seven rifles.
Officials did not say why the gunfight had broken out, but powerful and well-armed Mexican gangs often fight for control of smuggling routes into the United States.
Mr. Obama, your highest priority as Commander-in-Chief is to protect American citizens. Stop playing politics with America’s sovereignty. Maybe a ‘James Carville’ will get your attention:
For anyone holding their breath that five members of Team Obama would actually propose something for lasting Arizona border order when they met with Governor Jan Brewer in Phoenix yesterday, you may exhale now.
Phhhht.
Governor Brewer’s word for the sound escaping one’s lips would be ‘disappointment’. Mine feels more like disgust.
After an hour and a half of sitting through White House Security Adviser John Brennan’s power point presentation – with no hard copies to follow or keep for reference, Governor Brewer was clearly frustrated with Obama’s underwhelming response to secure Arizona’s border:
Regarding the impending Obama Administration lawsuit…
“Well, you know I’m very disappointed. I think it’s wrong, but we will meet with them and we will push back. And, we will fight as hard as we can and I believe Arizona will win the lawsuit.”
Here’s how Obama and Napolitano are ‘bringing the hammer down’ on illegal immigration:
► Up to 524 National Guard personnel will be sent to AZ (not the promised 1200).
► National Guard personnel will be implemented in small numbers and fluctuate incrementally.
► National Guard personnel will conduct surveillance and support – not ‘boots on the ground’ apprehension duty.
► National Guard personnel at the peak number of 524 will be available for a limited time.
► 22 miles of existing border fence will be repaired.
► The $500 million originally pledged to Gov Brewer has been changed to $445 million. $310 million will be given to Mexico. Arizona will receive a whopping $135 million.
Phoenix 3TV report:
“No really substantial information was provided that would make us happy or pleased with the discussions today.” -Gov Brewer
White House Picks Critic of Local Immigration Enforcement for Key Role at ICE
Harold Hurtt, a former police chief in Houston and Phoenix, has been hired as the Director for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Office of State and Local Coordination.
The Obama administration has tapped an outspoken critic of immigration enforcement on the local level to oversee and promote partnerships between federal and local officials on the issue.
Harold Hurtt, a former police chief in Houston and Phoenix, has been hired as the director for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Office of State and Local Coordination. Starting July 6, Hurtt will supervise outreach and communication between ICE, local law enforcement agencies, tribal leaders and representatives from non-governmental organizations.
[...]
… as a police chief, Hurtt was a supporter of “sanctuary city” policies, by which illegal immigrants who don’t commit crimes can live without fear of exposure or detainment because police don’t check for immigration papers.
He also, during his tenure as Houston police chief, criticized ICE’s key program that draws on local law enforcement’s support.
(emphasis mine)
Obama’s agenda is obvious. He may well have met his match in Governor Brewer.
President Barack Obama will deliver an address on comprehensive immigration reform on Thursday in Washington.
Obama will speak at American University in northwest Washington following a week in which he’s met with key constituencies in the immigration debate.
Obama will speak at noon on Thursday “on the need to fix our broken immigration system through comprehensive immigration reform,” according to a White House announcement.
The president met this week with immigration activists and members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus to discuss the prospects for reform this year, too.
Q. What did it take to get five Obama Administration officials to leave D.C. to travel to Arizona for a meeting with Governor Jan Brewer today?
A. Years of being ignored by the federal government including six unanswered letters sent from then new Gov Brewer to Obama over 18 months’ time, thousands of illegals flooding into and through Arizona, horrific criminal activity including assaults, burglaries, kidnappings, rapes, and murders, Phoenix earning the eye-popping title of Number Two Kidnapping Capitol of the World (second only to Mexico City), non-stop human and drug trafficking, miles of trashed landscape, unsustainable costs to AZ taxpayers to fund illegals’ incarceration, housing, education, and medical care, signing of carefully written AZ Senate Bill 1070, cries for boycotts and protests, calls for counter-boycotts and support, vilification of Arizona, a White-House-pulpit scolding of Arizonans for wanting to reclaim their state by Mexican President Felipe Calderone, other states considering similar laws, Mexico filing a lawsuit against Arizona, a public-pressure-induced 20 minute Obama/Brewer meeting in the White House, a stingy promise for aid, another missed deadline, and unrelenting pressure from Brewer. That’s all.
Q. What does Gov Brewer want?
A. What nearly 85% of Americans want -- a secure border.
Obama is not only dragging his toes on when the ‘up to’ 1200 National Guardsman and $500 million (not near enough) he pledged will be available to help secure AZ’s border, he is planning to sue Arizonans for doing the federal government’s job. (Gov Brewer learned of the intended suit in a rather unusual way.)
There’s more than toe-dragging going on. On June 18, 2010, Senator Jon Kyl (R-AZ) revealed to Town Hall attendees at a meeting in North Tempe, AZ, that during a one-one-one Oval Office meeting with Obama, while discussing securing the southern border, the President said, “The problem is, … if we secure the border, then you all won’t have any reason to support ‘comprehensive’ immigration reform. In other words, they’re holding it hostage. (Gasp!) They don’t want to secure the border unless and until it is combined with ‘comprehensive’ immigration reform.”
Frustration with numerous incidents on the scale of this, this, this, this, and this…
Hot Air: Does it occur to the White House at all that “undocumented” workers are breaking the law themselves? They shouldn’t be exploited, but then again, they shouldn’t be here to be exploited, either. At the same time that the Obama administration contemplates a lawsuit against Arizona to stop them from enforcing immigration law, they’re working on a program that supports the people breaking that law, all while unemployment continues at a high rate long after their stimulus plans have run aground. Instead of enforcing the law – which is, after all, the raison d’être of the executive branch — they’re conspiring to help people break it, and with our tax dollars, no less.
Q. Is this another step nearer to a possible Obama executive order for amnesty?
A. Several Senators are concerned enough that they’ve written a letter to Obama challenging him to answer questions about issuing mass amnesty if Democrats can’t secure enough votes for a bill in the Senate.
We shall see what results from Team Obama’s meeting with Governor Brewer today. Not having room in this post to address all points regarding illegal immigration, our feeble borders, and legal immigration, I conclude with a final question for Team Obama…
Q. Do Americans have the right to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness within a safeguarded border?
Festooned in red, white, and blue bunting, the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library was the setting for an enthusiastic crowd of 700 or more as they welcomed former MA Governor Mitt Romney on Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Besides addressing the large crowd, Romney’s rousing Annual Reagan Lecture was also a live webcast.
It was quite a sight to see former First Lady Nancy Reagan enter the hall on the arm of Gov Romney. Another treat was when Mitt asked his wife, Ann Romney, to step to the podium to offer a few words. Questions and answers after Romney’s speech underscored, among other things, the concerns Americans have for the direction America is currently going. Excitement for another possible presidential run by Romney was evident!
One of the first things that impressed me about Romney was his grasp of facts. He didn’t use a Teleprompter, nor notes – just what was in his head. He spoke from the heart with a passion and love for America and the people who work so hard everyday just to make ends meet.
May 25, 2010
Annual Reagan Lecture with Mitt Romney*
3:30 p.m. Book Signing
6:00 p.m. Lecture
7:00 p.m. Dinner
Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney will deliver the annual Reagan Lecture at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library on Tuesday, May 25, 2010.
Governor Romney will also be signing copies of his latest book, No Apology: The Case for American Greatness (Release date: March 2, 2010) from 3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. In his latest book, Governor Romney proposes simple solutions to rebuild industry, create good jobs, reduce out of control spending on entitlements and healthcare, dramatically improve education, and restore a military battered by eight years of war.
Larger-than-life statue of 40th president greets visitors at entrance of Ronald Reagan Library.
Toward the end of Mitt Romney’s bid for the Republican nomination in the 2008 presidential election, his wife, Ann, turned to a documentary camera and said: “We’re never doing this again.”
But today, she is worried about the direction of the country.
“And she’s changed her mind,” Romney said Tuesday night to an energized room of his supporters at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley.
Romney delivered the eighth Reagan Lecture at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, joining influential leaders who have spoken at the annual event in the past, including Former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Chief Justice John Roberts.
Romney escorted former first lady Nancy Reagan into the Presidential Learning Center, where an audience of about 700 rose to greet them.
Although there was no announcement of his candidacy, Romney went through a litany of criticisms of current social, diplomatic and financial policies coming out of Washington and the Obama White House.
[…]
“America doesn’t need to hear about a president who makes apologies for his country,” he said.
He said the American principles of education, taxes and growing the economy remain the most important.
He said there is optimism. Americans are “awakening that this administration is on the wrong track,” he said.
[...]
Davia Navarrette of Oak Park attended the lecture with her mother and said Romney “lit the room on fire.”
“He has got a strong love for the country. He will have our support if he runs for president,” she said.

Portending things to come, yesterday’s primary elections were a rousing reality of America’s anti-incumbent mood: Specter lost, Paul won, Lincoln will be in a run-off. In Pennsylvania’s District 12 special election, Critz was victorious. Or, as Michael Scherer from Time characterized it:
This is how it goes in 2010 at the ballot box: Old orders are upended, political lions become roadkill, chosen successors get left behind, and the outsider, riding a wave of discontent, becomes the new frontrunner.
The election in 60 seconds – after ad. (If video is choppy, pause until it loads.):
Party-switching Sen. Arlen Specter fell to a younger and far less experienced rival in the Pennsylvania Democratic primary, and political novice Rand Paul rode support from tea party activists to a Republican rout in Kentucky on Tuesday, the latest jolts to the political establishment in a tumultuous midterm election season.
In another race with national significance, Democrat Mark Critz won a special House election to fill out the term of the late Democratic Rep. John Murtha in southwestern Pennsylvania. The two political parties spent roughly $1 million apiece hoping to sway the outcome there, and highlighted the contest as a possible bellwether for the fall when all 435 House seats will be on the ballot.
On the busiest night of the primary season to date, Arkansas Democratic Sen. Blanche Lincoln was forced into a potentially debilitating runoff election against Lt. Gov. Bill Halter in her bid for nomination to a third term. The run-off will be June 8.
[...]
Specter, seeking his sixth term and first as a Democrat, fell to two-term Rep. Joe Sestak, who spent three decades in the Navy before entering politics. Sestak was winning 54 percent of the vote to 46 percent for Specter. He told cheering supporters his triumph marked a “win for the people over the establishment, over the status quo, even over Washington, D.C.”
Sestak’s campaign calling card was a television commercial that showed former President George W. Bush saying he could count on Specter, then a Republican, and then had Specter saying he had switched parties so he could win re-election. Once unleashed, it coincided with a steady decline in Specter’s early lead in the polls and signaled the end of the political line for the most durable politician of his generation in Pennsylvania.
Former Rep. Pat Toomey won the Republican nomination and will run against Sestak in the fall in what is likely to be one of the marquee races in the battle for control of the Senate.
UPDATE: I’ve replaced Rand Paul’s acceptance speech video with Karl Rove’s analysis this morning of yesterday’s primary results. It contains a portion of Paul’s speech:

If we don’t change course -- halt/reverse Obama’s egregious policies, America will be forever changed. We have two chances to hoist the USA back from the socialist abyss – 2010 and 2012.
Good news… Additional help may be on its way. Repentant Obama voters are expanding their ranks. Seems the magic spell of ‘hope and change’ wasn’t what they wished for after all. I Am Sorry I Voted For Obama is a website that solicits stories from former Obama supporters who are no longer proud of their decision. We heartily invite disaffected Obama voters to join our cause! Every liberty-loving American is needed! Roll up your sleeves and help us win congressional seats this fall and two years hence.

We have some very bright friends who didn’t really LISTEN to what Obama was saying during the campaign and who didn’t think his past associations made any difference. They were caught up in the American Idol nature of the whole thing and the desire to “Make History” Just like the media, they failed to ask “what do you mean by “transforming the United States?” They failed to ask what he meant by “redistribution of wealth.” They failed to ask about his mentors. They failed to ask about anything….they were just in love. Now reality has hit…the bumper stickers are gone from their cars, they refuse to discuss political issues, preferring to change the subject. Are they sorry? You betcha!

I am a member of an interracial family. With that being said, I really don’t care what your skin color is, you fall into three categories in my life -- good, bad, and questionable. The only factor that determines this are ethics and morality. My father-in-law, who I am very close with, voted for Obama; mainly because he was black. Many people did in the name of “ending racism”. Isn’t that terribly ironic and hypocritical? At any rate, Pops told me the other day after we were discussing and agreeing on our very conservative, yet independent, values, that he regrets deeply voting for Obama. The man that spoke so eloquently about change, transparency, fairness, and equality has shown us just the opposite. And to think, I almost believed it too. McCain got my vote. And I will be putting very good money on, my entire family voting against him this year.

I voted for Obama and regret that decision everyday. I now come to realize that my daughter and her children will be paying most of their income in taxes. I realize that he is taking away our freedoms. The health bill is horrible. We will be taxed to death to pay for it and will have inferior health care. I wish I could take my vote back.

I’m sorry I voted for Obama. I wanted hope and change. Well I’ve been seeing a lot of change, all of it for the worse. What I’m hoping for now is that the change will stop.
Pete from Orlando, FL 2010-03-25
Despite our collective dismay at the recent turn of events, there are a few good things that we can learn: 1. People are getting re-acquainted with our Constitution and the principle on which this country were founded. And they are discovering that we ARE unique in this world. To implement European style legislation would make us exactly like that from which we fled over 200 years ago. We are special and don’t let anyone tell you differently.2. DO YOUR RESEARCH! The information was out there during the campaign but the majority of Americans wouldn’t put any stock in it. Some of us knew from which Pres. ZERO came from. He surrounded himself with and was influenced by socialists his entire life. He was taught to hate this country from an early age. It’s true that you are who you associate with. Please -- in the future let’s all do our homework diligently and not get our info from SNL and Jon Stewart.

As a college student, I got caught up in the hope and change message that Obama was feeding to others my age. I knew our country needed change, but I was so swept up in the novelty of Obama that I failed to look at the issues. Now that I have transitioned into the “real world,” I have to take care of myself and have realized that while I like to help others, I am not for the forced “spreading of the wealth” that Obama is shoving down our throat. Watching our Constitution get flushed down the toilet is devastating.

Scott Wynn from Festus, Missouri 2010-01-24
In my opinion it was the far left media propaganda that swept Obama into office. His victory has encouraged the anti-American left to shove their socialist agendas down the throat of Americans. This is what I regret the most about voting for him. America is in having a huge economic crisis and the only help that this administration can offer is to blame the previous administration, while they work to propagate their leftist agenda instead of refocusing their attention to what really matters right now, and that is the economy. America, let’s hope we can turn this around soon and not be fooled by the far left again in the future.
Jared from Lemont, Illinois 2010-01-08
I was completely convinced real change was coming. Obama promised ‘No Lobbyist’ but his administration has hired more lobbyist than any President before him. Obama has literally sold Washington. I guess the more things “change” the more they stay the same.
