Radio host Rush Limbaugh’s “Operation Chaos” was aimed to cause some mischief during the Democratic Primaries last night. The goal of this “operation” was to disrupt the primaries and help Clinton, who he used to think was the weaker opponent for Senator John McCain to face in the general election, win the two states.
Well, it doesn’t look like that worked out today.
So now, he changes his tune a bit.
According to Politico.com, which happens to be a great political website, Limbaugh now believes Obama is the weaker opponent. He also took a shot at former Senator George McGovern, who today switched his endorsement from Clinton to Obama and called for Clinton to drop out, saying that “McGovern in his lifetime wants to see someone lose worse than he did,” referring to when McGovern was the Presidential nominee for the Democrats.
Absurd.
This guy is absolutely absurd.
He probably has an audience because he is absurd. Now, why is he absurd? It’s very simple.
He called to cause disruption in the Democratic Primaries. He wanted to cause some unrest. He wanted to play with people’s right to vote. That is what is absurd.
Our troops die to protect our democratic rights, which includes the right to vote. World wars have been fought to protect the right to vote. The right to vote is a fundamental part of this country and democratic philosphy and he wants to play with it like some play thing. He wants to see how far his influence goes for ego reasons and decides to play a very shameful game with the democratic system.
It goes against the very core of America. I understand not voting for either candidate to get your message out. I understand voting for the other party because you’re not happy with yours. But, for the life of me, I will never understand voting to cause “chaos.”
It’s absolutely absurd.
