Clear Channel petition to cancel Rush's show, generated by Move-On Member
move on servers | 3/6/2012 | D. Washington

Posted on 03/06/2012 5:39:18 PM PST by rebelskid

Dear MoveOn member, Rush Limbaugh has gone too far with his attacks on Georgetown University student Sandra Fluke, calling her a "slut" and a "prostitute" and suggesting she post video tapes of herself online having sex. Rush Limbaugh's radio show is a part of the Clear Channel lineup, and it's time that they no longer allow Rush Limbaugh to spew hateful and derogatory comments. That's why I created a petition to Clear Channel on SignOn.org, which says: Sandra Fluke, a law student at Georgetown University who was advocating for health insurance plans to cover the cost of contraception, became the target of a series of attacks by Rush Limbaugh. Besides calling her a "slut," he also called her a "prostitute," said that he wanted her to make sex tapes and post them online, and speculated that she only had a problem paying for contraception because she was having "so much sex." We who support Ms. Fluke find that this is a serious offense committed by Mr. Limbaugh, and we ask that his radio show be terminated. Will you sign the petition?

Sounds like it was written by a child. Clear Channel’s not going to shoot the golden goose.

What is wrong with showing a slut whore spreading deadly germs through videoed sex of her in the action of her crimes?

Liberals project their hate and self loathing on our usage of words they assume they know what they mean in us.

But perhaps the health care havoc done by liberal sluts is what liberals want us to forget about, just like forgetting about abortion, death camps for the Jews under Hitler or anybody else under Mao/Stalin.

I really don’t understand why Rush gave all of this to the LibDems. He created his own “Hush Rush” campaign. I like Rush - and have listened for years - but he crossed a major line. He can/will rehab himself but his timing played into the LibDems hands.

Rush is a partner in Clear Channel and Premier Networks. They would have to buy him out, and he will just go to satellite.
They can’t silence him. He he he.

Indeed, people like real music, not this hush crap that suffocates the thought worse than a plastic bag over a liberal’s head.

So you are just going to “roll over” and play dead like most Republican do now days. The Republicans have been very well trained by the left to keep their damn mouths shut and we do it very well.

Rush’s problem is that he speaks the truth. The maggots now infesting and feeding off of our once great country can’t handle the truth.

I can’t disagree more with your position. Rush spoke the truth. It is “TRUTH” that the demoncRATS want to silence. Truth from anyone who dares to expose the left for who and what they really are. The demoncRATS win this fight only if capitulation occurs.

The libs are known for being able to cry crocodile tears and get all upset at the least provocation if it will be to their advantage and you are suggesting that the only safe way to prevent it is...total verbal abstinence! Game over!! The libs win without a shot being fired!!!

When the SHTF and all bets are off, the domestic communists are going to pay.

Once this Republic turned Democracy inevitability falls, picking up the pieces and establishing a new Republic will involve neutralizing all marxists (in the most humane way possible, of course)

Clear Channel: Discontinue Rush Limbaugh’s radio talk show.
By D. Washington (Contact)

To be delivered to: Communications / Media Relations: and Communications/Media Relations

Sandra Fluke, a law student at Georgetown University who was advocating for health insurance plans to cover the cost of contraception, became the target of a series of attacks by Limbaugh.

We who support Ms. Fluke, find that this is a serious offense enacted by Mr. Limbaugh and we ask that his radio show be terminated.

You don’t want to be associated with this kind of speech. It is free speech, but will cost your stations in the long run.
265614. Robert D Siebrands Mar 6, 2012 Waterloo, IA
I seriously doubt the radio station would cancel the offending program simply because support it or not they are in the business of making money, no more no less. That said, until the station sees those funds dry up or if the offenders contract makes it financially unfavorable he is here to stay. Too bad to, he is such a P I G. No more no less

Get him off the air. No more hatred!

Shame on Mr. Limbaugh. It’s one thing to disagree and its another to be rude and demeaning to women. He is a disgrace and shouldn’t be spreading such hate talk on the radio.

The corporation that owns Clear Channel needs to be held accountable for what they are allowing to go out over the airwaves. The Supreme Courts’ United Citizens decision makes corporations essentially people with similar responsibilities and accountability in the eyes of the law.

We need to get organized like they are and do it now. We must start to control some of the conversations or our beloved country will die.
