Obama: Voters agreed with me
Politico, by Reid J. Eptstein

Original Article

Posted By:earlybird, 11/10/2012 5:16:40 PM

President Barack Obama’s first post-election radio address centered on the themes he pushed in his speeches in Chicago Tuesday and in the East Room Friday. Obama couched his reelection victory as giving him the authority to focus on job creation his way, with protections for the middle class and deficit reduction paid for by the nation’s wealthiest. The way to avert the year-end fiscal cliff, he said, is the very proposal he has been making for months on the campaign trail. “The message you sent was clear: You voted for action, not politics as usual,” he said.

Comments:
Taxes. That´s what they voted for, that´s what they´ll get.

I was just crunching some numbers after thinking about Obama´s supposed "mandate". In 2010 (latest data available) there were 217,342,419 eligible citizen voters in the US. In 2012 Obama received 61,710,131 votes or approx 28% of eligible voting age people.
The 61,710,131 votes that Obama received in 2012 is 7,788,385 fewer than he received in 2008, and is even 318,154 fewer votes than Bush got in 2004.
Not much of a mandate....

Waiting for the wealthy Dems who voted for him to figure out that they have shot themselves in the foot. Will feeling "patriotic" make up for the "contribution" they will have to make to Obie´s government? It´s their wealth he wants to redistribute.

In urban areas, in cemeteries, yes, they did.

Elsewhere, not so much. Obama needs to look at a map breakdown of the vote. He probably is - so he can punish those red states.

The 50 percent that doesn´t pay taxes agrees with tax the wealthy. Except, now, the wealthy won´t expand their companies, move operations overseas, and stop giving to the non profits.

I wish obama would say that only those who voted for him will reap the good life. I would fess up right away and admit that I wouldn´t walk across the street to save his life.

Whe Bill Clinton in 1992 received 43% of the vote, he said it was a mandate. When a reporter asked him to clarify that statement, Bill said, ´even a one vote victory is a mandate.´

Mr. Big Shot desperately needs to be reminded that the voters also agreed with 240 REPUBLICAN congressmen in the House. When Obama sneers "I won" at Mr. Boehner, the only appropriate response is "So did I."

Vote "present". Let the rubes have their taxes and let the Democrats own the depression. Don´t cave on anything that would shift composition of electorate, i.e. amnesty. fire Reince. Fire McConnell. Hire Sununu, Wayne Allyn Root, Liz Cheney, or Ann Coulter ( iff she apologizes for Christie Creme) for GOP Chair. Hire Rand Paul or Rubio for Senate Majority Leader. Recruit some sane, disciplined, cunning, professional, conservative candidates for 2014.

Boehner should give him and the Democrats EXACTLY what he´s asking for, and right now!

Why?
Because it won´t do what he says it will, and he, and them, will be held accountable next election - in 2 years.

Loved how he was "expecting to find" leaders who will do what he says.

Execpt for him, every other member is worried about their jobs starting right now.

And remember too, not 1 Democrat voted for Obama´s budget the last 2 he´s proposed, which means they´re poison to Democrats.

Boehner should STOP trying to save the President and the other Democrats and give them what the President wants.

A tax increase on the rich won´t make a dentin the deficit and that isn´t the reason anyway. The left will spend the money before the first dime comes in. Blue states all over the country have raised taxes on the rich and they´re as underwater as ever.Europe has VAT taxes and high gas taxes and their still broke.

One of the left´s biggest schemes over the past 15-to 20 years has been building condo projects in cities hoping to lure high rollers back in to help the tax base.This was a big reason for the eminent domain the liberals on the SC agreed with.Never mind that private property seizures are unconstitutional unless it´s for roads or similar needs.Now, a lot of these condo projects set unfinished because the banks cut them off or the completed ones have been converted to public housing units that HUD is paying for.

The worst part of the higher taxes scam is Obama will carve out blocs of his donors from paying them.Just like carving out over half the country for paying for Obamcare,like felons.

Once and for all we have rid ourselves of this fatal delusion that if we give Zippy what he wants, in two years he will be held accountable. He will NEVER be held accountable. This is not happenstance or default. Powerful forces that shape events in this country have gone to a lot of trouble and expense to ensure that this man is never caught and will never be held accountable for anything. This weasel has escaped. Let us concentrate on getting Congress back in ´14 and routing his would be successor in ´16.

Obama´s campaign was a policy-free zone. There was nothing to agree upon. He won the election because more people decided to stick with the status quo than to change. It´s as simple as that. I don´t see much of a mandate considering his failure to run on anything of substance.

Cheater. A rational universe would disallow all Philadelphia votes in light of Republican poll watchers being ejected from polling places. Imagine that scenario with the parties reversed. Someone would also do an in depth study of the crucial counties in Ohio where there were several allegations of bused in voters, thanks to unions.

On the other hand I don´t know why Allen West and myself care about blatant voter fraud. The Republican party and the previous Republican administration did NOTHING to prevent all of this when they had the chance.

When Bush won over Kerry, I recall Sen. Schumer saying that the Republicans had to remember that there were many democrats who didn´t vote for Bush, and their opinions had to be considered. The Republicans couldn´t just do what they wanted, said the Senator.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J.-- Rutgers´ coaching scandal spiraled deeper Friday, bringing down the popular athletic director and a school vice president while donors threatened to cut off their contributions to New Jersey´s largest public university. The day of mounting troubles for the school began with Athletic Director Tim Pernetti resigning over his failure to immediately fire coach Mike Rice, who was caught on video hitting, kicking and taunting players with anti-gay slurs at practice.

Offered admission into several top colleges, she accepted a scholarship to UC San Diego, leaving behind the often rough, inner-city world of South Los Angeles.

After years of lying, she fully confessed to her role in a 2007 murder and, in a deal with prosecutors, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and attempted robbery.(Snip)Judge Michael Pastor sentenced

These are trying times. Never in the history of this country have we been so weakened and polarized by what many view as deliberate government policy. Now anti-gunners in the U.S. Congress, the Obama administration, and legislatures across the country are seeking to exploit the Newtown tragedy to promote their “gun control” agenda that envisions federal, universal background checks on gun purchases, and that could lead to gun registration and confiscation. At the same time, the increasing militarization of law enforcement, most visibly demonstrated by the growing use of massive, SWAT-type raids on businesses and individuals, sometimes with federal

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say?

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

The Obama White House is scrambling to blame Friday’s abysmal March jobs numbers on the sequester’s trimming of the rate of growth in federal budgets that have yet to fully commence.
