RUSH: Yesterday Fox News Channel Studio B, fill-in host Trace Gallagher speaking with Democrat strategerist Mary Anne Marsh, Townhall.com\u2019s Amanda Carpenter about the upcoming Pennsylvania primary. Trace Gallagher says, ‘The next major battleground, the race for the Democrat nomination, Keystone State, 158 delegates. Mary Anne, you have to imagine a lot of GOPers are going to want to play here.\u2019<\/p>\n

MARSH: That\u2019s exactly right, and you\u2019ve seen that more and more since McCain\u2019s got the nomination, so I wouldn\u2019t be surprised to see it in Pennsylvania, too. What we\u2019re now seeing, though, is more Republicans supporting Clinton. Some people think that has more to do with Rush Limbaugh than it might do about how they feel about Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No kidding. Gallagher then says to Amanda Carpenter, ‘Amanda, can you see any of the candidates say, ‘Look, I really don\u2019t like the idea of the GOP switching sides just for temporary purposes here now?” You know, Trace, I gotta tell you, Obama and Hillary are both urging Republicans to do just that. Well, they\u2019ve stopped it now because the registration ended yesterday in Pennsylvania. Obama was running radio ads, Trace baby, and Amanda Carpenter is clueless.<\/p>\n

CARPENTER: Yeah, I think there\u2019s a number of people that aren\u2019t comfortable with, you know, members of one party interfering with another party\u2019s nomination, but it looks like it\u2019s happening. If you look at the numbers from the Pennsylvania State Department, they reported in February that 26,000 people changed their party registration in that month alone. So it could be the margin of error if it\u2019s really close, you know, a month from now.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Try 161,000 Republicans registering as Democrats in Pennsylvania, pushing Democrat Party registration over four million for the first time in history, 161,000. (laughing) Early bird special. <\/p>\n

Paul in Milford, Connecticut, welcome to the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi, Rush, thank goodness for you and Fox network, we\u2019d never get any true news out of the media.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you, sir, I appreciate that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, listen, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I\u2019m afraid that a variation of Operation Chaos has been in effect with the phony liberal Democrats for the last 15 years, and I\u2019ll tell you why. They go into states like New York and California and Massachusetts, they promote all these social programs that raise taxes and then the phony liberals flee out of those states and come into Connecticut or Nevada or Vermont, and that\u2019s why those states are turning so liberal and so Democrat.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I don\u2019t know about Vermont. Vermont\u2019s been liberal for a long, long, long, long, long, long time. But I get your point. Like people out on Long Island who cannot afford to live there anymore with just the basic costs of living, the housing costs and property taxes and this tax and that tax, some are moving to North Carolina.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Some are moving to Florida. So your point is well taken, that there\u2019s already a Democrat Operation Chaos underway because the Democrats are already moving and infiltrating our states.<\/p>\n

CALLER: So maybe your earlier caller was right, maybe we need to get some people to move to California.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, that\u2019s tit-for-tat. Absolutely. Coming up with 250,000 of them would be a challenge. It would be a challenge. But it\u2019s worth looking into, as I told the caller who suggested it. <\/p>\n

Dresher, Pennsylvania, this is Gil. Nice to have you on the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush Limbaugh, it is a pleasure and an honor to speak to the sage of sanity, the (unintelligible) of conservative pontification. I am a foot soldier in Operation Chaos, and I want to let you know, I\u2019ve got a real serious problem going on.<\/p>\n

RUSH: What\u2019s that?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, yesterday, I went and I registered as a Democrat, and I woke up this morning, and I had this incredible urge for deep fried tofu, and it won\u2019t go away. Rush, you gotta help me here.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, well, it\u2019s only going to get worse if you don\u2019t get your arms around it. Deep fried tofu, next you\u2019re going to ask us for a welfare check; then you\u2019re going to want food stamps.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush, is this contagious?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Then you\u2019re going to start hating the military. You gotta get your arms around this real fast.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m thinking of buying a Prius, Rush.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, no. Buy whatever you want. I\u2019ll tell you what I\u2019m going to do. You need help. I want you to hang on after this call. I\u2019m going to send you an Operation Chaos T-shirt and an Operation Chaos cap and a couple of bumper stickers.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, Rush, that\u2019s got to be an antidote. If there is one, that\u2019s it, right?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Of course it will be an antidote. You put this stuff on the minute you get it. Now, the first shipment is not going to go out \u2019til April 4th, so you gotta toughen up, you gotta use some discipline. You might even want to go get some counseling. You cannot let this happen to you. I can imagine you have nightmares and so forth after doing this, but remember this. You\u2019re doing this for our side to win. You have not — I imagine many of you are dealing with this challenge — you have not sold out, you are not a traitor. You are not betraying anyone. You are foot soldiers in Operation Chaos. You\u2019re the infantry; you\u2019re the guys on the front lines; you are making it happen. You just bring this to a screeching halt, your hunger pangs for tofu. If it goes any further than that, call me back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
