Bush to Press: "You're Assuming That You Represent the Public. I Don't Accept That."
Mighty big talk for one who couldn't carry a majority of the popular vote. He must be from Texas.

Yeah, yeah, yeah...So what if he didn't get the majority of the popular vote. Bush got mine, and many others to boot. And I can tell you that the liberal mass media sure as hell doesn't represent me!

I think Jimmy Carter in 1976 is the last time a Democrat ever broke 50%.

Bush carried much more of the popular vote than Clinton did in '92. You must be from Arkansas.

GOOD. Our elections are not based on the ol' mob rule!

HammerLane,


Bush to Press: "You're Assuming That You Represent the Public. I Don't Accept That."

Mighty big talk for one who couldn't carry a majority of the popular vote. He must be from Texas.


Prudential Ideas often start with small words.

President Bush has finally targeted the Liberal Media's Achilles Heel : Neutralizing the Media Myth that they're Actually Important.


That sure sounds like a Churchillian concept to me, HammerLane (Churchillian is Texan for "a big idea whose time has finally come).

Perhaps you're echoing the weeping and nashing of teeth nowa-days regularly heard from ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR and Airy-America (LOL).


Now ... about Bush's "quite legitimate" 2000 Presidential Election Victory.


The Constitution's Framers saw fit to create the Electorial College, and they're the same guys who penned the First Admendment.

They did it for good reason.

History will very powerfully argue (in fifty years) that Bush's 2004 election (vis-a-via the Electorial College) was probably what kept America from becoming the Nuclear Ash-Heap that the "Religion of Peace" has planned for Western Europe.

Don't make the same mistake that Anne Richards, Hillary Clinton, and the "European Weasels" made in Underestimating G.W. Bush ....

President Bush won such a majority of the popular vote that the democrats failed to produce enough fraudulent votes and lost.

Why do you think they tried so hard in FL? They realized that they cheated too light and tried to create some more votes in the recount.

In reality George Bush won a landslide

You don't have to win the popular vote to become President, only the electoral votes.

The whine is stale.

It's pretty hard to carry a majority when there is a major 3rd party candidate in the running. Just ask your pal Bill Clinton.

And by the way, Bush's 47.9% of the vote sure beat the hell out of Clinton's 42.7%

Now maybe when the New York Times' circulation reaches 50,456,002 then you may have a point to make.

So your position is the press does represent the public and the public overall wanted President Bush to admit he has made a mistake?

LOL

No, I don't think so.

What is your point about "the popular vote"?

Please spell out why you raise this irrelevent issue, and remind me of when Clinton, for example, ever won the majority of the popular vote (hint: never).

He carried a majority of the People Who Count. Not the people who count as in one person = one vote, the people "who count" - you know, the ones who work to support families, their churches, the less-fortunate, their schools, their local businesses, the economy in general - the ones who produce.

The aroma of a Bush Whacking Troll is over whelming when one does a scan of what you have posted.

You sound like a Troll from DU who has posed as a conservative.

He got a higher percentage of the vote than his predecessor. I don't hear a peep about that.

He got the majority in FL in spite of the obstruction of the FL Supremes (who interfered in spite of the clear election laws of FL), and he got the majority of the Electoral vote (in accordance with Constitutional law), too.

Too bad.

Wanna talk about voting fraud some more? I've a zillion examples of RAT fraud...

A quick click on your last several posts shows a distinct odeur d'troll.
