DEMOCRACTS AGAINST OBAMA

Given the media fawning coverage of media President Obama first 100 days and his rock star image he projects to adoring crowds at his campaign rallies and listening tour events you would think that Conservatives stood alone to opposition the President Obama policies. But you are wrong. The Republican Party has been labeled as the party of "No" but there are signs of dissent within his own Democratic Party. Obama has a cool and moderate demeanor. But his liberal agenda is extremely ambitious. This is just fine for Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid but it is provoking a push back from Conservative Democrats who represent Conservative and moderate States. Last week the Democratic controlled Senate defeated a Obama backed Bill that would have allowed bankruptcy judges to rewrite mortgage contracts. Labeled the "Cram Down Bill" this would have allowed benefits for homeowners who got over there head in homeowner expenses and singed bad mortgages they could not afford. If the Bill new passed it raised mortgage borrowing costs. A dozen Democrats voted against the Bill, which was voted down 51-45 in the Senate. A large number of Democrats are fighting against President over "Cap And Trade" legislation. The big problem the President has is that middle America does not want "Cap And Trade" because it amounts to a big tax on energy costs and would send manufacturing jobs overseas. The liberal Scheme is very popular in the left-wing of the Democratic Party. This Cap and Trade legislation would crush the "Coal industry" and raise prices almost 50% when you pay your electric bill. The House Of Representatives rejected a Obama Administration request for 50 million dollars to relocate prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay Prison in Cuba. In January the President signed a Executive order closing GITMO within a year but they have no idea what to do with the roughly 240 terrorist subjects there. Europe does not want them and the Pentagon estimates that between 50 and 100 will end up in the United States. The polls show almost 75% of Americans oppose releasing Detainees into the United States and that could be a serious problem for the Obama Administration. Finally, don't get me wrong President Obama is in the drivers seat, and many of his initiatives will end up passing. Polls shows him as popular as ever.
