View Full Version : Will Rush's "Operation Chaos" Turn Into "Operation Resurrection"?

Rush, he of the Mount Rushmore ego and arch nemesis of all things Liberal, intent on making mischief and prolonging the apocalyptic agony that the Democratic presidential nomination race has become, has once again turned jest into torment with what he fondly calls “Operation Chaos”. Prior to the Junior Tuesday Texas and Ohio primaries, lamenting that the Democratic race would draw to a close with a Barack Obama victory in the Lone Star State, Limbaugh jokingly advised Republicans to cross party lines to vote for Hillary Clinton in order to keep her candidacy alive and the Democrats locked in an increasingly bruising fight. With Clinton’s eventual margin of victory being less than the Republican crossover totals, comedy became strategy and Limbaugh gloatingly took credit for the junior Senator from New York living to fight and campaign another day.

In the wake of his success, catching the sweet scent of opportunity and profit in the air, Limbaugh has not only continued to encourage Republicans to continue using their guerilla tactics in future Democratic primaries, but he has also launched a line of merchandise memorializing his efforts. Now faithful listeners can purchase “Operation Chaos” bumper stickers and t-shirts, for a limited time only, of course. And if they order soon enough, they will receive them in time for the big events themselves! Call now, operators are standing by! Meanwhile, as Obama supporters mournfully implore him to call off the primary poaching, Limbaugh laughs all the way to the bank. But the question is, who, in the end will have the last laugh?

Given the Clintons’ uncanny ability to survive political tsunamis that would easily send other political careers to Davy Jones’ locker, one must ask if Limbaugh and the Republican guerillas aren’t tempting fate. As she has demonstrated time and time again, Hillary is the political equivalent of Michael Myers from the “Halloween” movies. Just when her opponents breathe a sigh of relief, thinking they have put her political career to rest once and for all…

Cue the startlingly synthesizer blast and roll the eerie piano music! In the background the torso of a dark, pants-suited figure slowly rises to a sitting position on the floor! While the health care reform debacle, bimbo eruptions, Chinese fundraiser scandal, fabricated Kosovo sniper-dodging, inane insistence she was not Tammy Wynette when in fact she was and Obama’s primary pummeling have been able to put her down, none have been able to put her out. Clearly she has defied political death on more than one occasion without Limbaugh’s and his loyal cadre’s assistance, so why intercede now?

The answer lies in the fact that at heart Limbaugh is as much comedian as he is commentator. He loves to laugh, particularly at the misery of those who despise and loath him. He enjoys the benefit of looking like a larger than life modern Machiavelli, directing his guerilla forces to sow chaos and discord in the heart of the enemy encampment as he gleefully collects the merchandizing profits in addition to the enhancement of his reputation as a result of the corresponding media attention.

However, one wonders if perhaps, lost in the rapture of the moment, Limbaugh may have been the unwitting instrument of the fates and gone too far? What if the joke that began in Texas turns out to be on Rush and the Republicans? If Hillary wins Pennsylvania in such a decisive fashion that momentum dramatically shifts in her favor, it may well propel her on to more decisive victories in the closing round of primaries. Going on to handily win West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana and perhaps even North Carolina, Hillary could take a commanding lead in the popular vote. With a combination of momentum and the popular vote title, the super delegates may be swayed into supporting the resurgent pants-suited stalker. Having decried Al Gore’s 2000 popular vote victory and Supreme Court-adjudicated loss, Hillary will press the Democratic movers and shakers to put their votes and the nomination where their mouths and the popular votes are. Should she win the nomination and go on to defeat John McCain in the fall, there will be many that point to her Republican-fueled Texas victory as the fateful moment that she rose from the floor in Michael Myers-like fashion. If that is the case, “Operation Chaos” will be added not to Limbaugh’s lore, but Clinton’s and will be fondly referred to as “Operation Resurrection”.


Just for the record, let there be no misunderstanding that this in anyway endorses or supports Hillary Clinton, her candidacy or positions in any way, shape or form whatsoever.

That's the beauty of Operation Chaos. She can't win without the superdelegates. If she does manage to take them then more than half the Democrat party will be disenfranchised. That's is going to make things alot tougher in November. and she starts out with a 54% unpopularity rating.

The Democrats are beatable. doesnt matter who it is that wins, they are beatable.

The objectives of Operation Chaos are woking

Dems are spending huge amonuts of money

Obama is getting blooded up

The liberal media is in a tizzy

and the only way for Hillary to win is to steal the nomination form Obama. Neither can win enough delegates with the screwed up way the DNC hands out delegates

The war within the the Dem party goes on, and that is the objective of Operation Chaos

This is exactly why I think it's ridiculous for ANYONE to advocate voting for Hillary for anything, ever.

A Democrat can't win without 85% or so of the black vote. If she invokes her Superdelegates to subvert the black vote, the black vote won't support her in the general.

I've been saying all along that the best thing that could happen would be for her to win the primary in that fashion. That would ensure a huge GOP victory in the general election, and thus the end of Hillary Clinton as a future candidate as well.

it might effectively take out Barack Obama as well.

Absolutely. As emotional creatures, Liberals will be less able to unite for the general election. In an Obama victory, spiteful Hillary supporters may consider voting for McCain, vote for Nader, or simply stay home. Not to mention the thrashing by Hillary will no doubt uncover lots of Obama negatives. :laugh2:

No matter who get the nomination, there will be sore losers on the one side who will lash out at the other

Polls are showing about 25% of both Hillary and Obama supporters will vote for McCain if their candidate does not win the nomination
