The left is starting to believe President Obama is a “poser,” Glenn Beck said on his TV show.
In their view, he has failed to achieve many of his campaign promises. He dropped the so-called public option from his healthcare legislation which is “the progressives’ ultimate prize.” Said Beck:
"As the concessions are being made and this bill gets stripped down, the only thing left is a mandate to buy insurance, a giant boon, they’ll say, to those evil big insurance companies. That’s not exactly what the left had in mind, not Democrats — the left, and they are coming out in force against it. Arianna Huffington daily calls Howard Dean — Howard Dean I just told you said the whole bill should be killed entirely, so what’s happening here?"
Obama has also failed to lift the ban on gays serving openly in the military. He hasn’t shut down the prison for Islamist terrorists in Guantanamo Bay. He is continuing a crackdown on illegal immigrants and he hasn’t pushed for a windfall profit tax on oil companies, Beck said.
Even far-left writer and conspiracy theorist Naomi Klein has turned on Obama, calling him more or less a corporate stooge.
Obama has got to get things done for the left or they will turn on him ferociously, Beck said.
Meanwhile, violent leftists in Europe are causing civil unrest, Beck noted. He played a segment from Neil Cavuto’s show in which global warming skeptic and filmmaker Phelim McAleer was being interviewed live from the climate conference in Copenhagen, Denmark. While McAleer spoke he was pelted with rotten vegetables thrown by eco-leftists.
In Europe, Beck said, “they have been trying to achieve their socialist utopia for decades. How is that working out for them?” Beck noted that rioters are burning cars in France

Just wait till the unemployment benefits run out.
Those violent leftist had better hope for police protection.
If their welfare was ever cut off, there will be blood in the streets.
Gee, the left is finding out the Obama really is a narcissitic megalomaniac and it is all about him.....well duh lefties, we could have told you that two years ago, after all it was screaming out loud and clear to anyone with any brains at all. Idiots!
Glenn is right...I don’t understand how Obama got elected. He is such a piece of crap.
We definitely need to SEPARATE ourselves from the left.
This can be done on a state level, if the states’ legislatures and governors get the balls to do so.
Police protection from who?
“...Those violent leftist had better hope for police protection...”
Agree. This time, they won’t get away with it. And we’ve learned from our military - don’t let the idiots get to court.
He is a “poser”.
None of his black ancestors were slaves in the American South (or anywhere in America).
None of his black ancestors lived under Jim Crow.
None of his black ancestors worked in the Civil Rights movement.
He stepped in front of those blacks who actually have roots in the American experience.
He poses as the first Black American president.
CW2 and/or R2, either way the Left will lose.
It’s my understand that the bills that go back to the house and senate can be substantially different from the ones that were just voted on. The public option can be put back in and all they need is 51 senate votes to pass it.
>> Now that the left has reason to be angry and in opposition to Hussein, will we hear all the language and insults and dismissal thrown at them that were thrown at the Tea Partiers? <<
The State Run Media will do everything it can do in the beginning to try to tie the Tea Parties to these crazed government funded anarchists socialist pukes.
We will need a strategy to counter act their despicable strategy.
They use ANY opportunity to riot and loot.
I would not rule out some lefty nut-job pulling a Lee Harvey, the media blames the conservatives and as a result,turns President Obama into St Barrack so that is martyrdom could be used to enact Utopian policies.
They’ve been told for generations that they can’t succeed,
and that it’s someone else’s (whitey) fault.
They have no reason to be mad at Hussein. He has just passed the biggest welfare/tax system in history. The dems dream has always been to get non-elderly middle class people on welfare because people on welfare vote Democrat. This bill is the entre` for that dream to come true.
What’s been happening the last couple of nights on Glenn Beck’s program? I can’t wait for him back to his usual format. I love his props: The baseball bat, the red phone, the chalk board. By far the best program on the FNC. Wish they’d give him Sheppard Smith’s time slot.
