Rush Limbaugh Echoes JASmius

by JASmius



You all know me.  Here at Political Pistachio and on all my podcasts, I tell you what I think with full candor and devastating insight and peerless intelligence and supremely feigned eloquence.  I am, as the marquis says, "the poor man's Rush Limbaugh".  And with each passing day, that label becomes more and more literal.

Ergo, you all know what I've maintained ever since the 2012 election: That there is a very real possibility that Barack Obama may not leave office as constitutionally required at Noon EST, January 20th, 2017.  If he can turn Obamerikastan safely over to Elizabeth Warren, so much the better, but if Hillary Clinton somehow wound up the Donk nominee, and especially if Scott Walker looks to be winning the 2016 election in a landslide, the 44th POTUS that has absolutely no respect for or obeisance towards the United States Constitution and the rule of law on ANYTHING else for ANY reason is highly unlikely to evince an anachronistic respect and devotion for the Twenty Second Amendment and allow a Republican successor to take power and undo and roll back everything he ever "accomplished" - "by hook or by crook".  He would correspondingly be very likely to simply cancel the '16 election under some pretext half the country will swallow like a doggie treat and decree himself a third term.

I haven't and don't necessarily predict it, because I also don't rule out an Elizabeth Warren victory next year, so far gone is this country and its ignorant, corrupted, morally bankrupt people.  But if it proves necessary to keep the nation "fundamentally transformed," it is absolutely a possible, even probable, outcome.

For two years, I was all alone on this island.  Heck, it was only relatively recently that I was even able to persuade this site's proprietor of the practicability of my theory, which is based, after all, on his actions as Dictator.  It's very similar to my long insistence that Hillary Clinton is political dog meat and Fauxcahontas is the REAL 2016 Donk presidential frontrunner, which is only now starting to come into some degree of common vogue.

Well, now my Obama coup theory has hit the big time, as El Rushbo himself has swum ashore on my island and now agrees with me:

“Let’s say that Mrs. Clinton has withstood all of this email stuff, that Elizabeth Warren has not gotten in the race, that Al Gore took the temperature and decided not to go, that it’s just Mrs. Clinton and Joe Biden,” Rush explained.

As you can see, Rush still has a ways to go before he completely "gets it".

“On the other side, the Republican field has a great list of possible candidates, and they will have by that time engaged in a vigorous debate which may have served to educate the country on the foibles and the problems of the past eight years, and the country may be looking forward to a dramatic change to Republican [rule] in the election of 2016.”

“We just cannot put it all to the risk of being unraveled and undone by these racist, sexist, misogynist, whatever else Republicans. So as a service to the nation, he is going to forget the Twenty-Second Amendment and either not leave office or run for reelection himself as the Democrat nominee.” [emphasis added]

He's not predicting it, as I am not; but he is acknowledging the very real possibility, which cannot logically be denied based, again, on Obama's own despotic actions.

Seems like I should start getting paid royalties or something for this, doesn't it?  Or maybe admittance to the Great One's guest-host rotation at the very least.
