if someone said and they believed that >>> "We're the majority. Look at all the red states. We won by the biggest >>> margin in history. Conservatives dominate the airwaves with Fox News and talk radio ratings."
It is clear that the Republican majority was in fact historically very close, so that part is delusional... Fox is the network with the largest share because the other networks slanted their news to the LW and this is a Centerist/RW country on the whole... But dominate the airwaves??? You are smarter than that... Further I note you reply did not address the issue of Obama seeking to ram through their agenda BECAUSE of the 60 votes in the Senate... Problem is, that like 1938, part of that 60 vote majority is NOT LW but Centerist/RW... And that is what Obama still has to learn. >>> We saw how the rule of law worked in the last administration. We saw how mob rule worked in the last administration. We saw how natures God was abused in the last administration. Rule of Law prevailed, Mob Rule -- you mean Move-on.org and Acorn???, as far as a abused God you are mightly presumptive of your knowledge of God... Further I will note that examples of LACK of Rule of Law under Obama... So please stop you emotive rhetoric... >>> No President I have ever heard speaking spoke of how great it would be for >>> other countries to adopt a republic form of government. Yet every one of >>> them speak of democracy as the form of government other countries should >>> adopt. I have never heard one President suggest we adapt a 50%+1 democracy.... I have on the other hand heard all the Presidents praise the American form of Democracy (a Republic)...
