I just stated that your line of reasoning regarding Obama lacking a “Mandate” is just plain silly considering the Liberal Sycophants in our Media driven culture.
Pharaoh Obama don't need no Mandate, in my best Holder's People dialect.
You have Posted many other reasons to explain your position, but the lack of a “Mandate” argument is not based on the reality in today's America. Maybe thirty years ago it would hold water, but when we have a President who acts like a Dictator and his supporters gleefully encourage his behavior. We are dealing with a whole new breed of animal.
I hope that explains my earlier post to you. If not, there is nothing I can add.
KC, I agree that the meaning of a “win with no mandate” would be utterly lost on Barack Obama.
We have the most unenviable choice coming up, unless Mitt Romney gets run over by a beer truck, figuratively speaking.
People have been conditioned since they were little to regard a check by the candidate of your choice to mean you love the candidate in a global sense. This is kind of the same folly by which Israel fell in love with its kings, which ended as we know in ruination.
“Finny, I am not fighting with you.”
Yes you are. Stop it. I have been following your posts elsewhere. You need to put a cork in your mouth, glue your keyboard stuck....and shut up.
"There's nothing new under the sun." The Liberal sycophants in our MSM-driven culture have been around a hell of a lot longer than Obama -- they were around when Clinton "won" with a "popular mandate" of 43%, and in fact they were MORE powerful then for the lack of more open and alternative media we have now. And Clinton was MORE POPULAR then than Obama is now.
Just the same, because enough people (I was NOT one of them) had the courage to reject liberal Republican HW, hold fast to their convictions, and take a chance on Perot in a year when the Democrat candidate was weak and unknown, Clinton's lack of mandate resulted in the Republican Revolution two years later. I'm sure you would have though any hope of such as "silly" then as you do now.
Human nature is human nature. KCon, FEAR and faint-heartedness are the only things that validate Obama's ability to play Dictator. It's as old as the mountains.
If Obama was as all-powerful as you say, why are we even having elections in 2012? How is it we are here on FR debating?
Could it be because your fear is exaggerated?
