[Operation Chaos] Operational Pause Officially Lifted [by Rush Limbaugh]
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | 30 Apr 08 | Rush Limbaugh

RUSH: A TV station in Indianapolis thinks they caused the operational pause in Operation Chaos. WISH-TV, the anchor Eric Halvorson and his report last night on Operation Chaos.

HALVORSON: Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh called for a pause in what he calls Operation Chaos. It's a call to conservatives to vote in Democratic primaries to extend the nomination battle. Yesterday, 24 Hour News 8 Jim Shella reported on official reactions to Operation Chaos here, a story Limbaugh referenced on the air today.

RUSH: So they're implying, ladies and gentlemen, that Operation Chaos, the operational pause was due to their report. I can understand. I can understand a local television station wanting to think they're a factor in a major nationwide operation, and they're doing a hard-hitting investigation out there, that's what local TV news is known for. I don't want to deflate them. I don't want to ruin their day out there in the newsroom at WISH-TV, but the operational pause in Operation Chaos was due strictly to the Obama press conference yesterday while we awaited what I knew was going to happen, media reaction, because we had to determine what course of action we would order next given the media reaction to Obama yesterday. And I can just tell you, the operational pause is now lifted. Operation Chaos is back at full speed, and we have no change in direction, orders from headquarters remain exactly what they are: You are to go out and sustain the Democrat primary season by virtue of voting for Hillary Clinton. Nothing has changed, ladies and gentlemen, nothing whatsoever.

Rush uses humor as a weapon.

Why does it matter what their party affiliation is in November?

Why would that matter ? You can vote for either party in the general.

The mail-in ballots in WA had very strong wording saying that by signing here you pledge to stay with the party that you selected in this primary. It *sounded* like they could invalidate your vote if you went against your pledge.

Yes, beandog, these Rush bashers will use any argument for not voting in the Dem Primaries, forgetting that in the General you can vote for whom ever you want regardless of party affiliation. They just don't understand Rush humor or the trouble he is stirring up among he Dems. Personally I love the so-called "Operation Chaos", it hasn't really caused any difference in the election but it has Dems crapping their pants, and some conservatives who should know better are also crapping their pants.

The only one who sank Obama, was Obama himself and his minions.

Some of these Rush bashers are just about as bright as Democrats.

Wow, you really need to bone up on election law. During a General election(as opposed to a primary)you get the same ballot regardless of party affiliation and you vote for what ever candidate you wish to vote for. If you really think they can invalidate your vote by voting for a republican candidate when you are registered democrat then I really think you need a brain transplant.

[Just wait until some of these fools find out in November that they can’t change party affilliation now that they have declared themselves to be Democrats. At least that’s the way it is in WA.]

That means nothing. Anyone can vote for whomever they want to on election day regardless of how they were registered in the primary. There were a few stories in the press that implied otherwise, but they're complete baloney. Just stories floated by partisan hacks to try to scare Republicans away from crossing over.

Same thing with the BS stories about how primary voters could be prosecuted for vote fraud if they didn't “intend” to vote for a Democrat in good faith and failed to uphold to the principles of the Democratic Party when they signed what amounted to a loyalty oath before obtaining a ballot. Such a thing is blatantly unconstitutional and they only ran these stories in the hopes that people wouldn't realize the threat is an empty one.

Another casualty of the “Chaos” is the meltdown of the progressive/liberal grassroots supporters. Verbal fistfights between Obama supporters and Clinton supporters are the norm at the DU and the Kos and whole factions have taken their footballs and gone home to sulk.

This isn't just taking place on discussion forums; it's a reflection of the growing animosity between these two groups of supporters in America. The Democrats modus operandi is to pit one group of victims against another and ride into town as the savior of the downtrodden. Now they find themselves with having to choose between two remaining candidates whose only qualification is to be an outspoken member of a particular victim class, and the African American vote and the women's vote are duking it out to see which group of victims gets to lead the Democratic Party agenda for the next four years.

As someone previously said, the Democrat chickens are coming home to roost.

Alot of the MoveOn and Daily Kos regulars/Rush haters are on the Rush thread today, eh?

I think Rush’s “Operation Chaos” has gotten under some thin skins myself!

GO RUSH!

That reminds me, I need one of those “I’m a bitter clinger” or simply “bitter clnger” bumper snickers!

To go next to my “proud member of the vast right wing conspiracy”!
