I did the same this morning and got this as part of their reply:

At ProFlowers, our mission is to delight our customers with fresh and long lasting flowers, and that is our singular focus each and every day. We do not base our advertising decisions to align with any particular political view or opinion as our employees and customers are as diverse as the USA. Mr. Limbaugh?s recent comments went beyond political discourse to a personal attack and do not reflect our values as a company. As such, ProFlowers has suspended advertising on The Rush Limbaugh radio program.

“Suspended”.....they’ll be back when the heat dies down. A little known fact outside of the Sales department at a radio station is that a show like Rush’s being syndicated must buy a certain amount of Ad Time. Most of this time is NOT during Rush’s show. This also gives the sponsors a degree of separation from the show.

ProFlowers said, “We do not base our advertising decisions to align with any particular political view.” But, by suspending their advertising on Rush Limbaugh, that's exactly what they are doing.
