He needs to figure stuff out he’s to young and still finding out who he is..

go back to the senate, get some experience and actually DO SOMETHING.

So everyone that signs up as a dem will vote for a dem? Or maybe since the dem race is the only interesting national race people have decided to be “in the big race” come Nov they maybe plenty of reasons to vote a different way. Most new voters to do vote straight party tickets. Those straight tickets are voted by long term party memebers. Those that have drank the kool-aid long and deep for many years. No the new voters are just as likely to vote R as D when Nov rolls around esp if the congress continues to fiddle while gas goes up. the environwackos will bury the dems when gas hits $4.00 or $5.00 and the Dems can not explain why we are not drilling?

Of course it would be better for Rep if Bush got up every day and told the tale.

It’s only a shame Rush Limbaugh and Operation Chaos have no power or influence whatsoever. If you believe otherwise you’re an idiot.

Mad props to you for never using the phrase mad props again.

Republicans do not believe in John McCain, so if he is elected, expect his numbers to be very low and add to his one-term-lame-duck status before he even gets into office.

Chaos. Control. Chaos. Control.

Couldn’t say it better myself.

Sorry Rush, I’ve got one good R that I really want to support and some bad Rs I want to vote against. I’m minding my own yard next Tuesday.

Very understandable. It’s that potential conundrum that makes me glad that, other than the Presidential primary, the partisan primaries in Wisconsin aren’t held until September.

Sorry, no sale.

Personally everyone on the right who buys into the whole silly “Operation Chaos” idea makes me a little sad to be on the right myself.

The heart of the idea seems to be that the average American is so stupid that without some string-pulling on the part of their betters involved in the whole affair, Americans who aren’t political junkies would just have followed the Obamamania phenomenon slack-jawed and vapidly all the way to inauguration day.

To me, that makes you all really not that much different than the left, who also view Americans as too stupid and gullible to do “the right thing” and elect redistributionists to vote them some nice chunks of evil rich money.

I’m not buying any of it. I also think that all of you are missing the point on McCain. There’s a lot of hate in the country right now on the right and the left. And I think the middle is sick of it. I know you’d love to get your rocks off hearing McCain rip Obama a new one on a whole host of things, but you’re in a tiny, tiny minority of people.

Most folks bemoan the loss of honor, of courage, of self-sacrifice, of civility and restraint.

Now I’m not saying McCain’s run an absolutely perfect campaign, but I do think he’s running a good one; I think he’ll make the points that need being made in the fullness of time and not on the schedule of people who need to fast-forward to the end and get their jollies RFN.

And finally, if you think SCOTUS is a canard, I think you’re very much wrong. I don’t know for a fact that McCain won’t nominate someone I’m in complete agreement with. But I do know for a fact that Obama or Hillary will.

And that once they do, there won’t be any salvation. And there’ll be no one on the right that can weigh in on the choice or counsel or alter it by one, damn word.

And that is enough reason to fight for me.

Looks like I can listen to Rush tonight after all. We just had a rocket attack here in Basrah and since I got thrown out of bed anyway, I might as well stay up and listen since I won’t be getting any sleep anytime soon anyway.

My favorite is when Rush says the name “Jesse Jacksooooone” or when he imitates Billy Jeff’s voice. What a total ‘hoot’.

every square inch of my glorious naked body

I think I’m going to throw up. I may have grown to be right-wing, but my feelings about Limbaugh are unchanged since my moonbat days.

Oh, man. I think we could have done without the “my glorious naked body” part of it.

No, no, that was the funniest thing! My wife asked me what the heck was I laughing at.

Attila (Pillage Idiot) on April 30, 2008 at 3:15 PM

That actually made me crack up.

He has such an awesomely twisted sense of humor sometimes.

Howdy! Thank you for your service and keep up the yeoman’s work you guys are doing over there!

JetBlast on April 30, 2008 at 3:08 PM

My sense of humor may be different than yours, but this whole op chaos is a hoot.

By the way, just finished Michael Yon’s ” Moment of Truth in Iraq”. It confirmed many things I’d already concluded, and slapped me in the face with a couple of things I hadn’t.

I’m doing what little I can to help from this side. You need popcorn?

Excellent summation of OC.
