 "The candidates are an interesting group, with

diverse opinions -- for tax cuts and against them, for

NAFTA and against NAFTA, for the Patriot Act and

against the Patriot Act, in favor of liberating Iraq and

opposed to it. And that's just one senator from

Massachusetts." -- George Bush

 

ABOUT THOSE FALSE EXIT POLLS

The first thing we have to realize is that media liberals tried to throw the election for the party of the ass again. Of course, this newsletter's readers were alerted[1] back in issue 321 (Another Election Reporting SNAFU Coming Up).

In a nutshell, the failed Voter News Service was replaced by two groups headed by former CBS News reporters with their election results funneled to Associated Press to tabulate and disseminate to media outlets.

So, we had the very-left (Bush Administration haters) AP essentially programming most news outlets on election results. AP will never be confused with fair and balanced reporting. Anything they publish should be taken with a few grains of salt. Or, like Reuters, AP articles should be disregarded as little more than socialist propaganda.

With this background, we can get down to the nuts and bolts of how to affect an election. Two words nail it this time around: exit polls.

Most of the media were provided exit poll data last Monday. The idea was to create an expectation of a Kerry win within the media. The liberal New England states, of course, would report early and go for Kerry, which would tend to verify the exit poll data and further boost the media's willingness to subtly act as if Kerry were to win a large majority in all states. With that, the exit poll mania quickly spread and the liberal media were happy to report, early on, that first data showed Kerry on top in key states.

Their idea in this closely programmed propaganda ploy, of course, was to suppress the conservative vote in many states outside of New England by demoralizing Republican voters.

That was the plan. Except, it didn't work very well this time around.

They called some states for Kerry as soon as the polls closed, but would not call states for Bush (like Florida) even after 92% of the vote was counted and Bush had a clear win. Even Fox News got in on that scam.

Tuesday, while polls were still open, Susan Estrich said on Fox News that she had spoken to Kerry headquarters and that either all the exit polls are wrong, or John Kerry is the next president. All the networks trotted out their far-left spinmeisters to back up the AP exit poll lies. Which means, all television networks were involved in spewing propaganda aimed at demoralizing those who would vote Republican.

Tuesday evening (EST), the scam was in full swing -- and by then, the bogus "news" was heard by Midwestern and Western voters. Most polls throughout the country were still open, yet the talking heads could hardly contain themselves from declaring Kerry's grand slam. Exit polls all favored Kerry, of course. Or, so talking heads thought, anyway.

They might just as well have had the Kerry campaign and the Democratic Party count the vote. They would have done it free. Instead, the media had the Democratic media cheerleaders do it, and actually paid big bucks for the false information.

But, by this stage of the game, the American people were well advised of the strong liberal bias in the media. After so many news outlets ran with the obviously forged Bush National Guard documents perpetrated by CBS News and seconded by many other news outlets, people took notice. Then came another totally bogus story, again disseminated by many news outlets around the country, concerning "380 tons" of "missing" explosives in Iraq. These were just two instances of out and out fabricated stories designed to affect the Bush campaign. Yes, the American people noticed.

And so too did voters notice the glee displayed by the talking heads as they talked of exit polls and did just about everything but declare a clean sweep for Kerry last Tuesday -- even while all polling places were still open.

Fact is, few of us believed the talking heads. Sure, many of us became concerned. That just made the plan backfire on AP & company. It made even more conservatives go vote. No matter how long the lines were, the exit poll lies gave determination to conservative voters.

So we have three major media scams in as many months. All propaganda ploys. All backfired in the face of major media. We know Old Media for what they are.

Old Media, babble on. But remember that few Americans believe you anymore. Your days are numbered. New Media is taking over.

FOUR MORE YEARS -- A MANDATE

First order of business: Thank you Florida!

People there are still cleaning up after the hurricanes and some still do not have proper residences. Yet they took the time to stand in line to vote. We should all take the time to send a note of thanks to a friend in Florida.

Y'all see all the red on that USA Today map? Check out the difference between the 2000 map and this year's.[1]

Dubya is the first President to be re-elected and gain seats in both the House and Senate since 1936. The last President to receive an outright majority of the popular vote was George H. W. Bush -- in 1984. That is, George W. Bush's election victory makes him the first American president since 1988 to win majorities in both the popular vote and the Electoral College, and we call that a mandate.

Blue chips posted a triple-digit gain Wednesday and the Nasdaq closed above the 2,000 level for the first time in four months after Dubya won a second term.

President Bush won 3.28 million square miles of counties versus the other guy's 741,000. Dubya won counties representing 150.9 million people verses 103.6 million for the liberal opponent.

President Bush won a larger popular vote than any candidate that has ever run for office in our nation's history. Again, a mandate.

So what does all this mean to us out here in flyover country? Probably a lot, really. Because, with this mandate, President Bush now will feel better about proposing bold new programs -- some of which many of us will really like.

For instance, President Bush has already indicated he would favor abolishing the IRS and instituting some sort of flat tax. We can -- all of us -- argue out the how and what of that later. Fact is, most Americans want the IRS gone. Bush also suggested, for all who want them, tax-free medical savings accounts and personal retirement savings accounts.

It appears that we'll need a new Chief Justice of the Supreme Court soon. Probably at least two Justices, too. Picking up a few extra seats in the Senate, as Republicans did, will help get good people seated. President Bush indicated that he prefers Justices who subscribe to the original intent doctrine of the Founding Fathers. That will be a new breath of fresh air because they might actually limit the federal government to operating under the Constitution again. (One can wish a little.)

Republicans now firmly control the House and Senate. Which means, we must now start holding their feet to the fire. Our borders need much better protection and federal officials must start enforcing federal law -- by apprehending and shipping out illegal aliens. If we, as citizens, are expected to obey federal law, so must foreigners. Perhaps, after tax enforcement is taken away from the IRS, we could use them to take care of that little problem. Other federal agencies are certainly not doing a very good job of it.

Our Second Amendment rights must be enforced federally, too. Concealed carry permits should be much easier to get and, like a driver's or marriage license, applicable anywhere in the nation. When the news is terrorism, let every honorable citizen who wishes be armed.

There is also the little problem of Bill Clinton. As expected, Clinton wants to honcho the United Nations. That, of course, must never be allowed to happen. We do not expect the Bush administration to even consider such a nomination. But, even if Clinton so much as mentions that again, we must be ready to counter loudly.

Yes, the GOP has a "mandate" now. But we must not forget that we put them there. We want something for that -- a list of some things, actually. It is our job, and our right, to make our wishes clear. Then, if they do not do what we wish, take them out in the next primary.

They may think that mandate is theirs. It is not. It is ours.

Think about it.

TWEAKING LIBERALS

Truthfully, I really wasn't gloating these past few days. Probably they caught me smiling and laughing a bit, though.

Yeah, I had to go into the city (90% liberal) and visit with the Democrats. Couldn't resist. I wanted to actually see the sad faces for myself, up close and live. Local Democrats have been a glum lot these past few days. Many are still grumbling.

On Capitol Hill, Democrats were whining like Valley Girls at a sorority party that ran out of wine, pointing fingers at their leaders and talking about making war against the Republicans. Liberal Hill-Rats must have run out of Prozac by Thursday and were getting very mouthy, even in front of reporters. Some of the top Social-Democratic Party aides blamed House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), an ardent socialist, and national party chairman Terry McAuliffe, for failing to win the White House or either chamber of Congress. Instead, they lost seats in both houses and their whining Senate leader, Tom Daschle, is gone, gone, gone.

(No gloating here. Just reporting facts.)

Fox News reported that the Bush hating groups spent about $400 million in their effort to defeat him. It was probably a lot more than that when all the illegal money is counted in, but never mind. George Soros alone spent a whopping $26,530,105 -- and probably more that we do not know about. So it's understandable that I am very happy to report this week that they wasted their money.

(No gloating here, either. Just reporting facts.)

Want to rub it in with Democrats? Just state one simple fact: Last Tuesday's results prove conclusively that President George W. Bush is much more popular with the American people than Bill Clinton ever was.

Unfortunately, Democrats still have a few strongholds around the country but, for the most part, it is a dying party. It should be dying, too. After all, the Clintons still control the party. And look at the Democratic Party's most famous members: Terry McAuliffe, Michael Moore, Larry Flint, James Carville, Jesse Jackson, Paul Begala, Susan Estrich, George Soros, and a whole host of limousine liberal media people.

These are some of the most visible people in the Democratic Party. The problem is that they have zero in common with anyone at the grass roots level who votes for Democratic candidates. It's most interesting that the working class often votes for the multimillionaires in their party and then wonders why they do not get proper representation.

The Democratic Party lost the South. Now the black communities are starting to revolt against the party. White people who vote Democratic seem to be from two classes: ardent socialists, or those who just do not pay attention to politics. And really, there is not a whole lot we can do about either group. Unfortunately, even the inherently ignorant get to vote.

And therein is yet another problem. Some of these people are too stupid to even find the correct polling place. Or, if they get there, they mess up the ballot -- but some then still demand the spoiled ballots be counted. Now some nutcase invented "provisional ballots" so some of these people who do not have a clue can still vote.

Perhaps there is a good reason some of those people cannot find their polling place and/or cannot vote properly if they get there. Perhaps they should not be voting in the first place. That could be nature's way of protecting the rest of us from the actions of the stupid.

Even so, we're always willing to help out the liberals. Suddenly a lot of liberals are saying they would like to move to Canada. Canadian officials put the kibosh on that, though, saying there is a year wait after making application. Actually, that's just Canada-speak for "we already have too damn many of our own socialists and do not want anymore." But, in the spirit of cooperation, I will be happy to show any liberals how to get into Canada with no problem -- even provide them a map and personally escort them across the border, just to be sure they go.
