Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Well, the pressure continues to mount out there, ladies and gentlemen.
The entire Democrat Party establishment and the American left will do anything, anything to end Operation Chaos.
All kinds of pressure being brought to bear on Mrs. Clinton, including now a story that she's not paying her bills out there, campaign bills.
And one of the stories from the Politico.com is that she's not funding health care insurance premiums for her staff to the tune of something like 252,000.
Anyway, uh greetings, my friends, and welcome.
It's Rush Limbaugh.
This, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network of the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Our telephone number, if you'd like to join us, and I'm sure you do is 800 282-2882, the uh email address L Rushbow at EIB net.com.
Why why should she end her campaign?
Why should she?
I mean, if you're is America, let every vote count.
If you're if you're if you're uh if you're Hillary, uh and she's still in the running here, uh, why why in the world should she cave in here uh with all this pressure?
Now, ladies and gentlemen, uh I was out in California over the weekend, as I mentioned to you, uh, I had a speech, had to make a speech and give it a speech, deliver a speech at a very super secret location to a very super secret crowd.
Uh and uh after the speech, little QA, and uh somebody asked me if I had heard that the by the way, speech is off the record by the rules of the group to whom I spoke, so I cannot discuss it.
No, it wasn't blue, it was uh it was hot.
Uh, I think uh I think it was hot.
Uh one way to describe it.
I mean, most of the people that address this group show up with texts, very dull, very boring texts.
They read the speech.
Uh very politically correct.
Of course, that is not me.
Anyway, after after the speech, you get a QA, and uh that was it's hard to hear for me in this in his large room with the uh acoustics and the PA that they had.
Uh and uh the what I thought the the question was have you heard that the Hollywood left has a huge plan in order to get this campaign over with, and that is to get Obama to promise to name Mrs. Clinton to the Supreme Court, and in exchange for that she get out of the race.
And uh when I when I heard the question, I I I did not hear the Hollywood part.
I just heard I I thought somebody was asking me if that would be possible.
And I came up with some uh don't even remember exactly what I said, but some brilliant answer about Mrs. Clinton getting out of the camp campaign uh in order to accept a a nomination of the Supreme Court is crazy.
She's number two, and she's already discussing whether or not he's qualified to be her vice president.
Uh she's not looking at giving up or quitting.
Later on, the guy came up to me and said, No, no, you didn't hear me.
There uh I I have been in conversation with the Hollywood left, and this is their idea.
And he gave me the names, of course, that we're off the record, I am sworn uh to secrecy here, but this is um I mean Operation Chaos is working, but that's what you take away from this.
Now the Hollywood left is trying to end this, and they're trying to do it by offering some giant little plum here uh to Mrs. Clinton to scram in exchange for a uh commitment to be named to the uh United States Supreme Court.
But as you go through the stack of stuff today, it's I mean, it's just it's it's endless.
Women push back in support of Clinton.
This is uh an AP story.
The women, the girls are furious out there at how Mrs. Clinton is being dissed at how she's being disrespected.
Uh women are furious, it's grown in the last week, said Ann Lewis, Clinton's director of women's outreach and a longtime Democrat activist.
Uh these these women are the volunteer infrastructure of the Democrat Party who've been proud to support Democrat officials for what they believe and stand for.
They're very angry that people that they've worked for so hard would be so dismissive of Hillary, and by extension of them and what they value.
Here's what's becoming obvious to me.
Uh once once it it's, you know, as I mentioned last week, one thing's that always amazed me was that there was never, ever, a tell all book during the Clinton presidency.
Either term, and then after that presidency was over, we never got tell all books.
That just doesn't happen.
Every administration has whistleblowers and people that write books about what really would nobody has done that with the Clintons.
But given the chance to abandon the Clintons and endorse Obama, gobs and gobs of former Clintonites are doing so.
Yesterday, of course, was the the uh Texas Democrat State Convention.
Or Saturday was.
And uh it, you know, we have a couple operatives there, a couple covert operatives, we're hoping to hear from them today as the program unfolds, but there were shoving matches.
There were people that were almost it almost came to blows out there.
Sheila Jackson Lee, Congressperson from Houston, addressed the crowd and was practically booed off of the stage.
She is a Hillary supporter.
But I mean, it it c it nearly came to blows uh out there, uh, ladies and gentlemen.
But the I I think those of you uh women out there who are angry um at the uh treatment Mrs. Clinton is uh getting, you need to look at me.
Uh as your comforter in chief, it is I, the author and architect, the commanding officer of Operation Chaos, doing everything we can to see to what Mrs. Clinton has shown the proper respect for a woman of her achievements, accomplishments, status, television beauty, commitment to uh ideals and so forth.
It is, it is I, L. Rushbaugh, doing everything we can uh to keep Mrs. Clinton in this and uh and propped up.
We're not not just with Operation Chaos, but clearly we are offering uh moral support, inspiration, and encouragement here as uh as we stand aside her with her uh and and oppose this unamerican, undemocratic, almost Stalinist like effort to get her to quit.
The Clintons, we know this, ladies and gentlemen, are not quitters.
And so we stand with you furious women, and uh can tune to tune to us here at the EIB network as your and me as your comforter in chief.
Uh try it.
It will work, at least for the duration here of Operation Chaos.
Also today on the program, I want to uh delve a little deeper.
Excuse me, I want to delve a little deeper into the economy.
Uh especially over the weekend I was doing a lot of thinking about some of the sound bites we played on Friday with Obama, and uh I finally saw the video of those sound bites where he was asked, I forget by who it was Maria Barcheromo at CNBC.
And she was asking him about the capital gains rate, and he said, Oh, yeah, we got to increase that at least to 25%, maybe even 30%.
Warren Buffett.
Yeah, Warren Buffett said it'd be fine.
And uh I finally saw the video to this, and he doesn't know what he's talking about.
He's eyes glaze, he has no clue.
He does not know what he talks about, particularly when it comes to the uh matters uh of the economy.
We are in a uh uh very, very precarious economic circumstance, largely because of the public mindset of it about it.
It's not as bad as people think, but that doesn't matter.
If they think it's bad, they're gonna act as though it's bad, and it'll become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
And we do have problems with uh with the banks being overextended on loans, and you know, they're they're very highly leveraged, now they're having to deleverage, and that's causing all kinds of problems.
The absolute worst thing, folks, that could happen to the United States of America in 2009 is if anybody, either one of these three, if they happen to get elected and one of them's going to raises taxes of any kind.
Uh capital gains or any other, it would just be devastating.
It would destroy an economy that's already in problems.
Uh not destroy, but it would be it would be painful.
You want to talk about 1973 to 75 again?
You want to talk about the 19 uh seventy-six to 79 period with Jimmy Carter, we could face it if the wrong people get hold of our economy and start raising taxes under the traditional liberal premise of fairness.
Now, one of the one of the phrases that you hear me use constantly people who make the country work.
And let me condense that something even uh narrower.
The people who make the country work are are the people that are traditionally called the little guy.
Corporate America does not hire a majority of people in this country.
Small business does.
And by small business, I'm talking about people that may have six employees, ten employees, twenty, twenty-five.
And these are just these are the what you got the little guy who is the employee of a small business.
You've got the the mid-little guy who is the small business owner.
Uh, and he is often confused with the rich and the powerful and the corporate elites.
And this is a guy or a family, a woman, this is a person who uh who files their personal income tax return uh as a subchapter S corporation to take advantage of personal income tax rates as opposed to corporate.
Uh and if you here's here's the thing to keep in mind about this.
The Democrats and liberals will, as they always do, will kill, will harm severely the very people they claim to care for and help.
And it goes back to the old class envy thing that we've discussed and that you're very well aware of on this program.
Rich are not paying their fair share.
We've got to raise taxes on the rich, even though it does not benefit and actually harms the little guy and the mid little guy, the little guy and the mid-little guy have been trained to think, yeah, yeah, you stick it to them so they understand the same pain I'm having.
You stick it to them, even though it doesn't do anything for them.
Uh and the people whose tax rates are being talked about being increased, they'll find a way to deal with it.
They always have, always will.
One of the ways they deal with it, if you're a mid-little guy and a small business owner, and your capital gains rate gets raised and your and your personal income tax rate goes up.
Well, you don't, you're not sitting on a just a bottomless pool of money in your business that you're not using.
Uh odds are that a lot of little guys are going to get laid off.
A lot of little guys who are the intended beneficiaries of a so-called tax increase plan based on fairness are the people who first suffer by losing their jobs.
That is why it is it is key.
Uh once once we get down to the general election, it is key because Senator McCain is our nominee.
And like it or not, that's the reality we have to deal with.
Now, Senator McCain says and does a lot of things that we find objectionable, we have problems with, but he has.
He has committed to making the Bush tax cuts permanent and to not raising taxes other than his global warming cap carbon cap trading principle, but it's a debacle.
We may be screwed anyway, but the bottom line is uh that's that's the one thing given the economy and where we're headed.
Of course he's okay on the war, but given the economy, I guess he's the Supreme Court judges uh as well.
Uh but that that's something that that that you got to sign a blood oath on that.
Senator McCain has got to sign a blood oath to supporters on that.
He's got a promise, even if Mars collides with Earth, he will not raise taxes.
No matter what happens, he will not raise taxes.
Uh that's that's something that uh people in his inner circle are going to have to work with him on because it is you look at what's happening with the banks, you look at what the Federal Reserve now talking about taking over the credit markets with more and more regulation.
This is not the way to solve the problem that we're in the midst of.
This is the way the Japanese did it back in 1980, it took them ten years to get out of their mess, and they're still not totally out of it.
Uh markets work, people don't have the patience to let markets work.
Hell, there's a story in the stack here that uh retailers are fed up with the high rates that credit cards are charging the service charges, and they want the federal government to set a limit on what the um uh service charges on credit Cards can be.
Now they may be too high, but this is the having the government move in and by congressional fiat have credit card rates regulated by the federal government.
I mean, this is just more and more handing over of the private sector and the free market to the government to regulate.
And again, I ask, would somebody point to me where the government does a good job of any of this kind of thing to recommend putting them in charge of even more?
I gotta take a break.
Be right back after this.
Don't go away.
No, I think that's right.
As I sit here now, ladies and gentlemen, I I think we had better prepare ourselves for the likelihood, of course, nothing guaranteed right now, but we need to prepare ourselves for the likelihood that John McCain will be the next president of the United States.
It's a long shot that Mrs. Clinton's gonna get the nomination, but we want her to hang in and give it every shot she's got.
But Obama is in the process of McGoverning himself.
He's in the process of McCain might just walk away with this election for a host of reasons.
Now again, this is just you know the end of March, early April, and anything can change here.
I'm speaking with a snapshot of the situation as it exists today.
Uh and and one of the the McCain camp is actively courting now Democrats and independents to vote for him.
Uh and and there are some that will uh just on general principle, because they they like McCain's liberal Democrat policies, those of his policies that dovetail with liberal Democrats.
Uh but there's gonna be a lot of people angry at the end of this whole Democrat process, either going to vote for McCain or sit at home.
Those left, I mean, Obama's I mean, he's this this the operation chaos is working, folks.
We are finding out more about Obama and his lack of knowledge, his ultra pure 100% liberalism, his insincerity, the way he is treating his grandmother is outrageous.
There's a story in the Honolulu newspaper over the weekend about what a great woman this woman is.
This is a pioneer for women in the banking industry of all things in uh in Hawaii, and he's treating her like no different than your average deliverance white racist pig.
Uh these kinds of things register with people.
They matter with people, and and uh the Jeremiah Wright business, now he's gained ten points over Hillary since the Jeremiah Wright thing came out.
Now, people, how can that be?
How can he be up by ten over Hillary even after the Jeremiah Wright business?
Well, we'll try to explain that.
We're talking Democrats here.
And we're talking a lot of defections uh uh coming from the uh from the Clinton camp.
And Hillary hasn't done any better.
She's out there Frank Rich had a piece of New York Times saying, why in the world she continue to lie?
Why would such an intelligent woman continue to tell a lie about snipper fire in Bosnia when everybody has proven it wasn't true with video and everything else?
Well, hey, Mr. Rich, did you ever stop to think that what we said in the early 90s might be true?
She's not that smart.
If you take a look and just examine and get rid of your cliches and images about bright women who come out of uh Ivy League schools in the Northeast, she may not be that bright.
Or she may just be arrogant and condescending to the point she thinks that she could withstand it like they did stuff in the 90s, and regardless, it isn't very smart.
So she's hurting herself too.
So McCain, uh a snapshot right now, McCain looks like he could handily defeat either of these two people.
And I got to tell you, the Democrats know it.
Operation Chaos has them teed off, and they also are teed off because they had themselves already in the White House.
So they're gonna try to make McCain into Bush III.
They're gonna go out there, they're gonna do everything they can to try to position McCain as a conservative.
McCain's got a challenge.
And he and his campaign people have a real decision to make.
He's got two options.
He can go for victory by continuing to be seen as a moderate and as a maverick, and seeking votes from the other party and from moderates and from independents.
Or he can, as some suggest he needs to do, secure his base.
I.e.
go for conservatives who are every time he opens his mouth, they get madder at him, like that world affairs speech.
They just get angrier and angrier.
And then our old buddy, Mort Kondracki on the Fox News channel on Saturday in the Beltway Boys.
I think Mort's tweaking me.
Mort suggested that if McCain really wanted to wrap this up, he could choose Christy Todd Whitman to be his vice presidential.
Well, no, Christy Todd Whitman has been so ostracized from the party she wrote a book called, Hey, I'm a Republican too, or hey, it's my party too, or whatever.
So his options are to continue to do what he's doing, uh and and and go get the Democrats and the moderates, or change field and go try to solidify the Republican base.
If he does that, then the Democrats are gonna see he's just a conservative, he just Bush III, which McCain does not want to be seen as Bush III, nor does he want to be seen as a conservative.
Uh that's that's rather obvious.
So uh if if he goes the route he's going now, the Republican Party's gonna change.
Uh it's gonna it's gonna grow and swell, at least in numbers of votes, with liberals and Democrats becoming members, and people go say, see, well, wait for the conclusion after this.
Yeah, PB.
As usual, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
And so are you.
I, Rush Limbaugh.
Doing what I was born to do.
So are you.
I was born to host, you were born to listen.
Let me start this again, and I'll make it very brief.
McCain's got two options because the Democrats, Operation Chaos, they are imploding.
Uh he's he can he can beat either one of these two.
Got the Democrats burned, they are fit to be tied, they thought the White House was theirs.
Operation Chaos tearing them apart.
Um, they were hoping to hide.
You know, liberals have to hide who they are.
Operation Chaos is causing all kinds of things to be learned about both Hillary and Obama.
We would not have learned half of what we know about them, or even less, had there not been Operation Chaos.
So McCain is a s in a snapshot today, McCain's it.
And he could be a big winner.
And his options are to continue to pursue liberals and moderates and independents.
In other words, you know, he thinks he's Teddy Roosevelt too, he's not.
And he's not Bush III either.
Uh just continue to position himself as Gerald Ford II.
And go get the liberals and the independents and the moderates, or he can try to solidify the base and uh uh uh get Republican conservatives who are upset with him right now and who get more so every time he makes speech.
So if he does that, if he solidifies the base and makes a move uh at this point or from this point forward, uh then the Democrats are gonna point fingers and say, see, he's just a conservative.
He's just been hiding it, but he's really a conservative, he's no different than Bush III, no different than Reagan, he's just a conservative.
And they'll do that to try to rally independents and Democrats to come back home away from McCain.
So the odds are that McCain's not gonna make a huge public effort to solidify the Republican base, and he's gonna try to win this by taking advantage of the absolute chaos that has befallen the Democrat Party.
Recalcitrant, angry liberals and Democrats, fed up with what's happening to both Obama and Hillary, will look to McCain, who's not that bad an option for them.
In terms of policy, in terms of things that uh he has authored and co-sponsored in terms of legislation.
So, snapshot as of today.
Let's pretend the election is today, and that McCain wins it, and he wins it with a sizable margin, and he does so by attracting Democrats, liberals, and independents to his otherwise Republican coalition.
Do you know what's gonna happen then, folks?
And I'm not trying to depress you, I'm trying to prepare you.
Do you know what I'm gonna say, Brian?
You know what's gonna happen then?
We are going to have a revival of the whole notion that Rockefeller Republicans, that country club blue blood Republicans are the way to go and the way to get victories.
That conservatism, the conservatism of Reagan is dead.
Look, the Republicans will say, we just won big.
We won big against two people that were figured to be unbeatable Obama and Hillary.
We've won this, and how do we do it?
We did it by going out and getting liberals and independents and Democrats.
And then we conservatives are going to be essentially I mean, it's gonna it it's it's gonna revitalize our movement.
It is gonna energize our movement after it depresses some people.
But a movement needs A party, and if if this thing plays out as I see it now, uh the Rockefeller Republicans may think that they have wrested control by Rockefeller Republicans, I mean there is no conservative.
There really weren't ever any conservatives.
Reagan really wasn't a conservative, they say.
We're all moderates.
We are moderate centrists that sometimes lean to the right.
That is how they want the party to be ID'd.
And if McCain is indeed victorious this way, that's what I told you way way back.
The party is going to be redefined.
The party is going to change for quite a long time if if this all shakes out the way it it appears to be shaking out, and part of this is the fact that I just I I'm confident Hillary could not beat McCain, and I'm even more so that Obama can't.
And Democrats are starting to realize this now, and that's why they're trying to get Hillary to get out of there because they want all this negative stuff from the Jeremiah Wright.
I mean, we're now discovering that Obama, who's been trying to hide his liberalism, we can't say his middle name, we can't say that he's a liberal.
We found out now that in a questionnaire that he filled out in 1996, he actually authored and signed on to a bunch of pure far-left socialist policies.
He is what he is.
Liberals are liberals, and they do everything they can to deny it, including not let you call them that.
They want to be called progressives.
They know they can't win national elections being honest and being who they are.
That's one of the great things about Operation Chaos.
Operation Chaos is bringing who they really are to the front for everyone to see.
Let's uh go to the audio sound bites and illustrate this a little bit.
Uh Operation Chaos CNN's Larry King alive on Friday night.
He spoke with radio host Stephanie Miller about the Democrat Premier.
You know, I love I love it when Larry King does talk radio hosts.
He gets people to have no audience.
I mean, relatively speaking, he goes out and gets talk show hosts with relatively no audience and asks some questions.
He asks Stephanie Miller, a massive turnout in Pennsylvania means what, Stephanie, if that happens.
It's hard to tell with Rush Limbaugh monkeying with things, but he doing.
He's telling his listeners to vote for Hillary to keep this going, to keep the chaos going, because I think they want to run against Hillary because she has much higher negatives if you look at any poll.
Don't care about your country.
Yeah.
Hillary King's.
In other words, don't care about your country.
Larry.
Larry, dear sweet Larry, who attends his eight-year-old son's little league baseball games.
In fact, Cindy Adams reported today in the New York Post that Larry King got in an argument with an umpire over a bad call with his eight-year-old who got thrown out and has been relegated to the center field bleachers from now on to watch his son play.
That's what's what Cindy Adams reported anyway.
So, in other words, don't care about your country.
This is all about the country, Larry.
It's all about saving it.
It's all about saving it from the disaster.
That would be Hillary or Obama.
And this is not about this is about not about getting Hillary nominated.
This this is this is about utter chaos.
This is about the Democrat Party essentially eliminating itself as a viable opponent in this election.
And you may be saying, Rush, after all you just said about McCain, why why are you doing that?
Don't you think it'd be better maybe to lose?
If the country's gonna go to hell, don't you think it'd be better to lose and let the Democrats take the credit for it?
And I know there is some there's some thinking about that.
In other words, it took a Jimmy Carter to give us a Ronald Reagan, but you can't run the risk that you're only gonna end up with a one-year Democrat presidency.
It's gonna be a disaster.
It's never wise to lose on purpose.
But here's the here's here's where it boils down to.
Uh this is it's gonna boil down to a single issue or two, and that is the economy.
And I'm telling you, if these Democrats get elected, either of them, it doesn't matter.
And they do half of what they're promising in terms of tax increases and reining in corporate profits and taking it, it's going to be with everything else going on in the credit markets, the mortgage crisis, more and more regulation of the uh the whole credit markets, it's going to be an absolute disaster.
The people that make this country work are going to be hurt beyond our ability to describe it, and those very people are the ones who think that raising taxes is going to benefit them because they've been trained to feel good when they think somebody has more money than they have feels a little pain.
Senator McCain is on record as saying he's going to extend the Bush tax cuts, and that he's not going to raise taxes.
With one caveat, if he actually does move forward on his global warming bill, that's going to raise taxes.
It's going to raise the costs that corporations face to do business, which and those get passed on, and these are going to be massive costs.
So there's a little little offset there.
But uh it if it look at the three candidates that we got choose from here, McCain, Obama, and Hillary, the only one that we even stand a halfway decent chance of uh limiting this economic downturn and return and and and by the way, turning it around very rapidly as McCain.
But I gotta be very careful saying this.
Because if I say this kind of thing too often and too frequently, the liberal Democrats and independents who are in favor of McCain might not like to be reminded that he's promised to cut taxes and uh or not raise them and make the Bush tax cuts precise.
This is how I could hurt him uh by helping him.
Um well not helping him.
It's a tight rope your host has to walk here, folks.
Uh if anybody can do it, I can do it.
But I'm I'm just laying this out for you as I have assessed the situation as of today, and it could change tomorrow, because who knows?
Everyone knows that the unexpected happens regularly in politics.
So I just it's a caveat snapshot as of today, a month from now could have an entirely different view of this.
And if I do, I'll of course share it with you.
Was it last Thursday or last Friday that we learned uh via the Columbus uh newspaper, the Columbus Dispatch, that uh the authorities, the attorney general and so forth in Ohio, uh had decided it was unlikely they're gonna prosecute me, charge me with voter fraud.
Was that Thursday or Friday, all these days run together?
Well, Friday the twenty eighth is when well, the drive by media was distressed.
So they went and they got this reporter.
Fox News Channel went and got this reporter.
His name is Mark Nickette, and they had him on Greta Van Sestron's show on uh Friday night.
We have three sound bites, and I just want to put this to bed now because I know a lot of people have been concerned about uh being dragged to the Hoosgow and uh in uh handcuffs and so forth, uh charged with voter fraud.
Uh it's unlikely, but as you'll hear in the soundbites, it's not totally totally over with.
Will Russia's dream come true?
Van Sestron says that he's let off in handcuffs.
Mark, in your reporting, have you discovered where there's a law that Rush could possibly be violating by encouraging people to cross over and vote Democrat for Senator Clinton?
There is a law here in Ohio that if you're gonna switch parties in the primary, you have to sign this form that says you support the principles of the other party.
Drop the tape.
It's unconstitutional.
UN, C-O-N, S-T-I-T-U-T-I-O-N-A-L, unconstitutional.
How many times do I have to keep mentioning loyalty oath?
It wouldn't stand up for a minute in night court.
They're taking and uh as as Rush suggested, the thought here in Oz Ohio, it's very it would be very difficult, if not impossible to enforce that statute.
In fact, uh nobody I found has has said there is somebody who's been prosecuted for essentially, you know, lying on this form.
When we asked the Attorney General's office here in Ohio whether they intended to prosecute Rush Limbaugh, the answer was they have no intention to prosecute because uh lying through your teeth and being stupid is not a crime.
Lying through my teeth and being stupid are not even relevant to what we did here in Operation Chaos, didn't lie to anybody, and there's nothing but brilliance uh associated here with Operation Chaos.
Uh by the way, uh an Ohio resident sent Coco, our webmaster, one of those leaflets or those doorknob things that Obama was passing out and putting on the doors of the homes of Republicans in Ohio, urging them to re-register as Democrat, go vote for him.
Oh, this is why.
And they wanted to frog march Carl Rove out of the White House over the scooter libby thing.
And I don't want to be frog marched anyway, but anywhere, but but it was tempting, you know, for the the handcuff scenario.
Sound by number two.
Van Sestran says, Well, is is this getting very much attention in Ohio?
Well, it is.
Uh this process is not new in Ohio.
We've had people crossing over uh for you know many elections, but it's gotten more attention this year, in part because of uh Rush Limbaugh's operation chaos campaign.
But again, the the problem is, you know, how do you prosecute someone for deciding who to vote for in a race?
Exactly.
You can vote in a in an election, you can vote for whoever you want as long as you're registered, unless you're an illegal and you don't have to be, and you can vote for whoever you want to for whatever reason.
Next question from Van Susrin.
Is there any way to determine whether or not any of them crossed over because they thought Rush gave them a good idea?
Well, there was some thought that you could prosecute people who openly admitted, yes, I voted only because Rush Limbaugh suggested I cause chaos in the democratic process here in Ohio, or people who openly admitted that they signed this affirmation form and and weren't serious about it.
In fact, there was some thought or some some suggestion in Cuyahoga County, uh the largest uh county here in Ohio that some of these voters could be prosecuted.
But the Secretary of State uh in Ohio pretty much put uh cold water on that, saying, you know, that might be getting close to censors censorship and not something they should really be thinking about doing.
So you see, they're not it the door hasn't been totally shut.
They're still considering options, which is why you gotta be careful.
You don't I have to be careful.
Some of you people in Ohio, you do not taunt law enforcement.
You do not beg them to pursue you.
You just it's it's like it's like the red flag uh being waved in front of the uh in front of the bull.
Again, that was Mark Nikett in IQ E T T E for those of you in Rio Linda.
Uh if you want to send him fan mail, he's at the Columbus Dispatch.
He was on Greta Van Sustran's show Friday night on Fox.
We're now gonna go to the phones.
Uh and we're gonna start in Concord, New Hampshire.
This is Kevin.

Hey, uh obviously your uh Operation Chaos is is very successful.
And I got a quick question for you.
Um as the commanding officer, do you happen to have an exit strategy for in order for me to uh join your coalition, I need to know what your exit strategy is gonna be.
Well, there is an exit strategy, and it's the exit strategy for every form of confrontation or combat or engagement, and that is victory.
And what does that look like?
John McCain winning the presidency and the Democrats losing it.
Very good.
Well, I'm in.
And okay, so that's that's the objective.
That's always been the stated objective of Operation Chaos, and that is the exit uh strategy.
Now there will you know you know there's a bunch of different phases if you were listening last week.
We're in just phase one now.
We've got phase two, phase three, possibly phase four of Operation Chaos yet to come.
Uh and just you know, exit strategy is victory as it should be in every operation of this type.

Bouyar, thank you for waiting, and welcome to the program, sir.
Hi, Rush.
It's my first time, and I'm glad because I'm disgusted with CNN and many other outlets.
I'm a journalist uh by myself, my profession, and I'm writing a book about Second World War, and and I came to this country in 1989, but uh I'm a Democrat, but I'm against withdrawal from Iraq, and uh I'm uh you can call the conservative Democrats right now.
You're from Iraq, you are a Democrat.
Uh you're you say you're a conservative Democrat right now?
Yes, sir, and uh and uh and the way the the the these uh so-called mainstream media have been trying to push Obama is just disgusted.
I mean and uh and uh also uh I think that the So you're you're your support Hillary?
Absolutely.
What's gonna happen when they if they throw her overboard, and if they if if if if she ends up you know being treated like a girl and with disrespect so forth, what what are you gonna do?
Well, I'm gonna tell you, Rush.
McCain is gonna carry by double digit margin New York state.
See, I knew it.
I knew it.
Uh Bouyard, thank you for confirming my instincts, which have yet to fail me.
And if if if Hillary's tossed, McCain is going to get his vote and a lot of other Hillary voters.
Mark on that.
All right, first hour, as uh always is about this time, is uh over.
Uh but there are two more to go, ladies and gentlemen.
