Susan Estrich Obama has no mandate to raise my taxes

It seems to be. Bush won his second term with similar numbers, and every Democrat in congress, including Obama, was saying he had no mandate. Yet, for some reason, Obama has one now. Care to explain that, or are you simply going to call me a racist bigot partisan hack because I live in reality?

Nobody knows what 'mandate' means, as it supposedly applies to elected officials.

Everyone knows what a mandate is, some of us just won't let you change the parameters based on the the fact that the president has a (D) or an (R) behind their name. If Obama has a mandate, so does every Republican in Congress. The fact that the mandates counter each other only bothers idiots that think government is supposed to able to do whatever it wants.

So Obama had a mandate in 2008 - 2009.

Why then did practically everything he did get characterized as being rammed down someone's throat?
 
Separated at birth?

Oh, referring to professional FOX News shill Susan Estrich as "liberal" is pretty pathetic, even for conservatives. Estrich draws a salary solely to push the FOX News viewpoint in an Alan Colmes-like "that's a good point, Sean" manner. If she uttered an actual liberal opinion, she wouldn't have a job.

Yes he had mandate in 08, a mandate for what?...Who knows "hope and change" but, I agree he had a mandate:confused:
 
Estrich voted for Obama, but he doesn't have a mandate to raise her taxes?

What is a mandate then?

Is it, as I have pointed out, simply a meaningless term then?

In 2008, there was no question that Obama had a mandate.

Did that somehow make Republicans support his policies

In 2008 not only did Barry have a mandate...he had super majorities in the House and Senate.

In 2010, after seeing his progressive agenda the American electorate took away Barry's mandate.

Republicans didn't support his policies because his policies didn't make sense. They still don't! The tax the rich scheme Barack Obama used to get reelected won't even put a minor dent in the trillion dollar deficits he's running up each year. So it's all been a scam that the Democrats put over on the American people with help from a compliant media. He's about to further weaken the economy while not addressing the deficit. More unemployment...more people on food stamps...more people in poverty.

So now Susan Estrich is a conservative? You're kidding...right?
 
She's one of the stable of FOXNewsDemocrats, and also has a gig at NewsMax. Liberals think she's a joke. Does it really matter what label you put on her? She follow the orders of conservative masters for a paycheck, and she's been doing it since around 2004.

Let's look at it another way. Since 1988, when she was a disaster with Dukakis, what liberal things has she done? No, a slapfight with Michael Kinsley isn't liberal, it's just sad. Mainly because she couldn't outslap Michael Kinsley. Anyone should have been able to win a slapfight with Michael Kinsley.
