K. Rove told followers to tell their "smarty-pants liberal friends" this:

[dhinojosa]

"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.

My response: "Uhm, Karl, that's not the definition of a mandate"

[stepnw1f]

1. He Also Received a "higher percentage of the votes Against"

and currently has a very low approval rating. Worst prez eva.

on edit:

Nobody can prove he actually got those vote totals, so go blow away Rove!

[dhinojosa]

2. Nice

hahaha

6. I laugh at Karl Rove because

he's so desperate to show Bush got a "mandate." The only "mandate" he got was Jeff Gannon or whatever. I don't call "winning" by two percent a "mandate." LOL! And you're right that he's the first President in history to have so many votes against him and he didn't even win in 2000. He was appointed by daddy's friends. I read somewhere else here on DU that some people in the primaries didn't even know who he was! Just the last name. So no Karl Rove I laugh in your face!

3. That he used the phrase "smarty pants" tells me all I need to know about

Rove. It's so incredibly childish that I can't even imagine using it in a non-ironic sense.

Maybe I'm just being a "smarty pants," but all I can say to this is "nanny-nanny boo boo" - you know the rest.

12. He used to get made fun of

and probably rightly so by the 'cool kids.' He hates us 'cool kids'
just as much now as he did when he was a young TurdBlossom! Add
repressed sexual problems and you have a old balding TurdBlossom. And
he's still not 'cool!' :hurts:



:nopity:

[merh]

4. Hmmm, rovey, Kerry got more votes than Raygun

and those are the votes that you could not steal. He would have had more votes than any one before him including the weed if you guys hadn't have cheated.

Mandate = Gannon

[cornermouse]

5. Almost half of the country voted for the other guy.

[merbex]

7. Have you ever heard a grown man use the phrase

smarty pants?

And we fear him? He's a flippin genius? A real smarty pants that Rove

[Iris]

14. yeah. Almost as bad as "smart apple"! n/t

[JAbuchan08]

15. He doesn't have to be smart, because he's not trying to manipulate

the system he's trying to destroy it.

8. Karl forgot to add that he can make votes like potato chips.

How many do you need?

Can't you just see him in court on the stand someday saying, "I know you are, but what am I"?

11. Mandates should speak for themselves.

If you have a mandate, why are you bothing trying to tell everyone? If so many people support the little weed, what does it matter?

[Iris]

13. you, dhinojosa, are a smarty pants!

Good reply!
