Rush Limbaugh Calling For Riots In Denver
Talk Show Host Wants America To See Actions Of ‘Far Left’

Talk show host Rush Limbaugh is sparking controversy again after he made comments calling for riots in Denver during the Democratic National Convention this summer.He said the riots would ensure a Democrat is not elected as president, and his listeners have a responsibility to make sure it happens."Riots in Denver, the Democrat Convention would see to it that we don’t elect Democrats," Limbaugh said during Wednesday’s radio broadcast. He then went on to say that’s the best thing that could happen to the country.

Limbaugh cited Al Sharpton, saying the Barack Obama supporter threatened to superdelegates that "there’s going to be trouble" if the presidency is taken from Obama.Several callers called in to the radio show to denounce Limbaugh’s comments, when he later stated, "I am not inspiring or inciting riots, I am dreaming of riots in Denver."Limbaugh said with massive riots in Denver, which he called "Operation Chaos," the people on the far left would look bad. "There won’t be riots at our convention," Limbaugh said of the Republican National Convention. "We don’t riot. We don’t burn our cars. We don’t burn down our houses. We don’t kill our children. We don’t do half the things the American left does."
Unfortunately, the right thing to do is ignore Rush Limbaugh right now.  Here’s a piece from him yesterday, after the Pennsylvania Primary.

… there is a way to end this — and it’s very simple.  So here it is.  Oh.  By the way, Mike, on the audio sound bites, sound bite 24 and then 10 and 11.  For those of you in the Obama campaign, this is the way to end Operation Chaos. You simply have your candidate acknowledge it.  At some point in the near future — don’t wait too long; you have to do this while everybody is talking about what a big win Hillary had here — what Obama has to do is go out and say, "This win is artificial and this win is phony because of Operation Chaos."

He needs to go out there and say, "Why in the world is everybody taking this seriously? Rush Limbaugh had his listeners register as Democrats for one day to go vote for Hillary to prolong this, and we’re letting Limbaugh get away with making our party look like it’s in a total sewer and a mess.  This victory in Pennsylvania is illegitimate, Mrs. Clinton’s is. It’s undeserved because Democrats did not vote for her. Republicans did, at the urging of Rush Limbaugh and his Operation Chaos."  Or, if Obama doesn’t want to mention my name, don’t mention my name, but mention Operation Chaos.  If he would do that, then he would give the media license to discuss it in the way he put it forth because they’re in the tank for him. So the media could then start dumping on Operation Chaos and therefore dump on Mrs. Clinton’s victory as meaningless, which would then give us the opportunity (laughing) to create even more chaos, but that’s another thing…
Like a loudmouth bully or class clown in the Elementary School classroom, he’s taunting Obama to include him [Limbaugh] in the race by using his Operation Chaos as an excuse for losing in Pennsylvania. So Rush is fomenting for riots in Denver by getting Republicans to support Clinton over Obama to evoke a reaction from black Americans by rioting like they did 40 years ago after King’s assasination. It’s perhaps the biggest revival of the kind of open racism since the last days of segregation. I personally doubt that Rush came up with this plan all by himself, but it doesn’t matter. Whoever came up with it is putting things on the line. Is America going to be a country where dirty tricks carry the election in 2008 [and thereafter], or is Democracy and decency going to punch through this kind of Sheenanigans? I doubt that the answer to that is in the hands of anyone except the collective of American voters. The strategy? Rush Limbaugh is [an] ignorant [one to be ignored]…
