Good for him! I have only contempt for a sponsor that tried to come back now. If they decided to make a business decision to drop Limbaugh, so be it. You make that call and you live with the the consequences. I could probably respect that, even if I don’t agree with the call they made or why they made it. But to come back and say “aw, we didn’t really mean it, Rush” after denouncing him very publicly and in no uncertain terms, is just the epitome of corporate weaseldom.

Sometimes I think Lenin was right when he said that “capitalists would sell him the rope to hang them with.”
How can any business give in so easily to threats from those who hate you (the left) while abandoning those who would fight for your survival (Rush and all of us who believe in free enterprise)?
They wanted to publically denounce him, to appease the left. Then quietly come back when no one remembered Done the Campus Flute.
Now they’ve destroyed their business with Rush fans, and hopefully the lefties will notice their attempt to go back. Destroy those businesses from both sides.
Sleep Train is not just any company. Years ago, a young little known Rush needed a bed and Sleep Train desperately needed sales; Rush bought a bed and convinced them to advertise on his show. The rest is history. Rush made it big, so did Sleep Train. When they dropped him them made personal comments about Rush. This relationship is OVER.
