But Karl, if Jeff is on top, who's dominant?

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Karl Rove, President Bush's top political strategist, on Thursday pronounced conservatism the ``dominant political creed in America'' and coached fellow conservatives on how to support his boss.

``The next time one of your smarty-pants liberal friends says to you, `Well, he didn't have a mandate,' you tell him of this delicious fact: This president got a higher percentage of the vote than any Democratic candidate for president since 1964,'' Rove said.

In 2004, Bush was re-elected with about 51 percent of the vote. In 1976, Jimmy Carter received just over 50 percent and in the two times Bill Clinton was elected, he received under 50 percent of the vote; Independent Ross Perot was on the ballot both times.

Bush is the first president since Franklin Roosevelt to be re-elected while his party gained seats in the House and Senate, Rove continued. But he also cautioned his conservative supporters that they must not become complacent with the 2004 victory.

1. Don't you mean "screed?"

NGU.

[Zenlitened]

2. Uh, didn't Kerry get more votes than reagan?

Just askin'

3. Cherry-picking.

I seem to recall in 2002, if you added up all the votes cast nationally, there were more votes for Democratic candidates than there were for Repukes.

Plus on the issues, line by line, the American people are overwhelmingly liberal.

They don't like Bush's tax cuts for the rich.
They want to protect the environment.
They want safe workplaces and labor laws and vacation.
They actually WANT healthcare.
They're pro-choice.

Rove can go f*ck himself. Stealing elections does not mean more people actually voted for you, KKKarl.

5. How many of us have actually said "he doesn't have a mandate?"

to our conservative friends?

Not many. Nice try Karl. Liberals make too much sense so you actually have to 'make up the conversation' in order to 'display' liberal stupidity to your followers.

6. Um, cause they CHEATED.

7. Then shouldn't he attempt to conserve something??? anything?

Let's see, our government is getting bigger, Congress is spending money like drunken sailors and prostitutes are roaming the floors of the WH...yeah, REAL conservative Rove. Way to keep up that dominant political creed of yours. :eyes:

8. Rove hasn't learned that

because you yell the loudest, it doesn't follow that people agree with you. They just let you yell. And some are just plain intimidated by bullying.

9. Here's a Headline for him.

BlueJazz said today that Carl Rove is the sleaziest piece of human garbage ever to walk the face of the earth.

10. I will be so glad when this

jerk is exposed for the lying fraud that he is--it's just a matter of time.

11. Read This...Get Mad!!!

Find a local Democratic party office and see how you can help. We need to start now in creating a REAL grassroots network and show who REALLY speaks for the American people.

Rove's numbers should make Democrats mad enough to finally start building a party and network to match, confront and one day overcome this machine that Rove was talking to today.
