I see a Civil War coming and coming this year. We have no choice but to fight for our survival against these Soros Communists. To borrow a phrase, God damn the Democratic Communist Party. Its chickens are coming home to roost!

Rush has pushed the envelope many times but this may finally be the time his remarks were over the top.
It remains to be seen whether he can weather this storm or not.
I have to wonder if Limbaugh has finally run his course, he's had a remarkable run for a long time but sooner or later even Rush will either retire or something like this finally takes it's toll and that's it.

Ugh, just ordered from them and when I got the confirmation message it said floristexpress/proflow

So I am thinking they are a subsidiary of proflowers. If they are, I will try to cancel the order.

"If we've got a problem with the left organizing boycotts and pumping online polls, then we need to stop doing the same. Criticizing what we also do is hypocritical"

Bad guys pummeling good guys is bad. Good guys pummeling bad guys is good.

Don't equate the evil hatred of righteousness with the righteous hatred of evil. Get it?

"I kind of feel sorry for the workers at the lower end of the ladder who will be fielding all of the calls "

Which do you think will be more effective.. An email that is automatically sent to the delete file unread because the word "Rush" is in the body of the letter or a low end rep in tears telling her supervisor she has to go home?

"it made me sad that Rush apologized which made me realize that hitting his pocketbook made him change his views"

Power on loan from Proflowers.

I want to know who to boycott.

We should all write letters to these companies, get others to also, and tell them we are boycotting them for dropping Rush. Let them see where their money comes from.

Kinda feel something is about to spring forth? I do, not sure what it is, but something good will come of all this and some entrepreneur will make it happen.

What Newt would call a Visionary. Someone reading this will get an idea.

Well, rats. I am sorry to hear that. It was nice doing business with them. Thanks for getting me (us) the straight scoop.

the left has gotten to him a bit

Could be. I think the left has become more viral. I see things lining up more and more rapidly for the End Times. Unpleasant changes are afoot in the world but the good news is Jesus is coming soon.

MozyPro has the same service. I use them both for my personal stuff and the professional services for my customers. They have been an excellent provider.

>I wrote to proflowers, earlier to tell them that I would never be buying their product, ever.

So did I. I only BOUGHT from them because of Rush...and I wasn't impressed with the product. They were dying within 3 days.

Yes, he is coming soon but there will be much to endure in the coming years. Fhu.com has a great free to listen to Be still spiritual exercise for people to move towards God so that they will have the patience to survive intact.

Thought it interesting that the first commercial on Rush’s show today in Detroit was a Carbonite commercial.

He could come at any time. Events point to its imminence. We want to be ready for him and by His grace we will be. He has not appointed us to wrath but salvation (I Thessalonians 5:9) because His wrath on us for our sin was all used up on Jesus 2000 years ago.

The Day of Vengeance, however, is a different story, and the seven years of Hell on Earth will happen after we're taken up. After He's taken us to be with Him in Heaven, it will all start to happen. The world will be plunged into darkness and, at the same time, there will be a huge world-wide evangelistic effort starting with Israel coming to Jesus. However, every Christan convert will be killed and after seven years the whole world will be dead except for a "remnant" of Israel hiding in the mountains of Jordan.

In the meantime, we have His promise to comfort and strengthen us to walk with Him and look for His return:

A little while, and you shall not see me: and again, a little while, and you shall see me. What I say to you is true, That you shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and you shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. John 16:19-20.

God Bless.
