RUSH: Do you remember the genesis of MoveOn.org? The whole point of MoveOn.org, it was a Clinton front group. ‘Move on,’ meant, ‘Can’t we move on from the impeachment? Can’t we move on from all of these scandals? Can’t we move on from all of these little Chihuahuas yapping at the heels of the Clintons? Can’t we just move on?’ With that in mind, in February 2008 in a closed door fundraiser (phone quality here), this is Mrs. Clinton talking about MoveOn.org.
HILLARY: We have been less successful in caucuses because it brings out the activist base of the Democratic Party. MoveOn didn’t even want us to go into Afghanistan. I mean, that’s what we’re dealing with. … They know I don’t agree with them. So they flood into these caucuses and dominate them and really intimidate people who actually show up to support me.
RUSH: Were you able to make that out? You weren’t able to? I can hear it and you guys couldn’t? You know what? I know why I could hear it, because I’ve got a transcript here, so I sort of had closed-captioning. Here’s what she said — and this is February of this year. ‘We have been less successful in caucuses because it brings out the activist base of the Democratic Party. MoveOn didn’t even want us to go into Afghanistan. I mean, that’s what we’re dealing with. … They know I don’t agree with them. So they flood into these caucuses and dominate them and really intimidate people who actually show up to support me.’ So Mrs. Clinton ripped MoveOn.org, an organization founded to help the country forget them and their scandals, ripping the Democrat base because they’re running in and intimidating people into not voting for her in these caucus states. I wish I could lay claim here to part of this with Operation Chaos, but I can’t. This is long before Operation Chaos was brilliantly conceived and began its flawless execution.
Let’s review. (laughter) It gets bigger, you mean in terms of intimidating Clintonites? If you’ve read some of these left-wing blogs, MoveOn.org, I don’t care where, they are threatening people. They’re unstable. I can imagine some of these clowns showing up at some old lady’s house where a caucus is taking place in Iowa, and basically threatening to burn it down, whatever they were doing. Not literally, of course, but, whew! Anyway, the idea that there’s any unity in the Democrat Party, anybody’s going to bring unity to the Democrat Party is just a joke.
