In another twist in the phony, shape-shifting "Operation Chaos," Rush Limbaugh proclaimed victory for his alleged part in manipulating Tuesday's elections.
As you know, Big Pants has been urging his listeners to register as Democrats and vote for Hillary Clinton to prolong the Democratic primary fight, and help nominate her -- the conventional wisdom for months was that Clinton was the weaker candidate.
That's one version. More recently he claimed, “Operation Chaos was born primarily for the purpose assuming Obama was going to be the nominee at the get-go of this. He needs to be bloodied up politically since McCain is not going to do it. Since the Republican Party is not going to be on the field in this way, somebody's gotta bloody up Obama. The only person that can do it is Hillary, and she can't do it if she's not in the race -- and so the purpose was Operation Chaos was to keep her in the race and to have her bloody up Obama in the process of staying in the race.”
It was also a convenient fall-back for the Obama campaign to blame any success Clinton might have had on the Evil Rush.
But Barack kicked ass, Tuesday. He went beyond expectations, and apparently overcame some very bad weeks. Clinton with all her alleged support from Chaos voters lost in double digits in North Carolina, and barely squeaked a win in Indiana where she was supposed to prosper.
The "Limbaugh effect?" Negligible. But that didn't stop Rush from claiming total victory.
Although the goals of Operation Chaos were never clear, they're even foggier now. Now he claims he wanted Obama to win all along.
Wednesday, Big Pants told listeners to vote for Obama, because he's the "weakest candidate since McGovern." Superdelegates, he says, know in their heart of hearts, "...[Obama] cannot put together the necessary coalition of Democrats to win this thing."
"Operation Chaos" was hugely successful as self-promotion, and for the boosting of sales of gear -- the coffee mugs, the caps, the jerseys; the autographed, fully-illustrated New Testaments.
Limbaugh's phony-baloney stealth campaign got his name batted around in the cavernous 24-hour newshole by reporters who should know better. His name was on everyone's lips -- a glorious place for any entertainer's name to be.

Not a problem there 'jamrev'; I recognized the anomaly...lol

A Song for my Dittoheads, by Rush "The Genius" Limbaugh
There is a sucker born every minute
Each time the second hand sweeps to the top
Like dandelions up they pop,
Their ears so big, their eyes so wide.
And though I feed ‘em bonafide baloney
With no truth in it
Why you can bet I’ll find some rube to buy my corn.
‘Cause there’s a sure-as-shooting sucker born a minute,
And I’m referrin’ to the minute you were born.
Each blessed hour brings sixty of ‘em
Each time the wooden cuckoo shows his face
Another sucker takes his place,
And plunks his quarter on the line
To buy my brand of genuine malarkey.
God bless and love ‘em!
But don’t feel sad or hoppin’ mad or cause a scene
‘Cause there’s a sure-as-shooting sucker born a minute,
But Ma’am you mighta been the minute in between.
If I allow that right here in my hands
The smallest living human man
The sight of that is surely worth a dime
If I present an educated pooch
Who’s trained to dance the hoochie cooch
What better way to waste a bit of time
If I imported monumental cost
A lady, fair, who’s head was lost
While crossing railroad tracks to watch a thrush
Who eats farina through a hose
And wares pink tights instead of clothes
If that ain’t worth a buck my name ain’t Rush!
Aw you say that’s hog wash, well who cares?
You’ll buy my hog was long as
There’s a sucker born every minute
Each time the second hand sweeps to the top
Like dandelions up they pop,
Their ears so big, their eyes so wide.
And though my tale is bonafide baloney,
Just let me spin it,
And ain’t no man who can resist me wait and see
‘Cause there’s a sure-as-shooting sucker born a minute,
And friends the biggest one excluding none is me!

Climate Change is not man made. Anybody who sez different is an asshole.

Like your pure scientific approach to this abob!
good one, sparks!

I do wish my son Sparky wouldn't go online to pose as a female.
I find it disturbing. Reminds me of when he was a young lad and I caught him going through my closet with nothing on but the music.
He absolutely ruined 'Moon River' for me.
Bad Sparky Bad Bad Bad!

I feel so special having a little troll admirer. At least your spelling has improved.

Good one about Rush - that's special. abob's take on climate change is too black and white and simplistic - sounds like Limbaugh's. There is an element of human effects to our weather, obviously and that is the shades of gray.
Al Gore has gone off the deep end with his commentary on the cyclone that ravaged the former country of Burma. He would be better off to get more scientific evidence and speak of facts, instead of wearing it on his sleeve and emoting about it. Just in the last year, there has been a good deal of evidence that exposed "An Inconvenient Truth" as scientifically inaccurate with a number of facts and conclusions. I suspect that it was done to achieve the desired effect of scaring the bejeezus out of viewers into falling into place like good little soldiers and accepting carbon credits as a fact of life. The movie was a wake up call that was needed, but I am dubious about his agenda.

Carbon Credits.
Now if they gave me, an ordinary person some of these credits that I can sell to the highest bidder I might be persuaded to support such a scam. But like all scams, only those who operate the scam benefit. And AL Gorebal himself has got the top seat of this airplane.
