I’ve already canceled my Go to My PC renewal and told them it was because of them pulling their ads from RUSH.

The ironic thing is the people asking them to pull their ads wouldn't listen to Rush on a bet.

Silly notions.

Not one penny will go to them from me and I will work to keep friends and family from using their products or services. Let them try to make their profits from the leftwing parasites.

Thanks friend. I've already emailed Quicken and Sleep Number, now on to the rest.

I think that I'll research their fax nos as phone lines get busy and are always answered by their lackeys NOT the biggies and emails can always get "lost" but letters and faxes are proof positive that people are responding!

Rush already apologized over the weekend, according to AP. So screw him and the advertisers he rode in on. I generally support Mr Limbaugh, but this time he’s a gutless wonder.

Wouldn’t it be better to call his current advertisers and convince them to stay?

Hope they all go the way of Snapple. It now sells in the local dollar store.

Do you know the names of sponsors that are still advertising with Rush?

Done! Thanks.

There are many more of us patriots than there are of them.

Obama has let out the stops to silence all opposition.

Dust off Hayak’s Road to Serfdom. Chapter XI, “The End of Truth,” details why the authoritarian MUST silence all opposition.

I’m ashamed to say that I was a ProFlowers customer

I became a ProFlowers customer when I first heard your ads on Rush Limbaugh’s show a few years ago. Like the other 25+ million weekly listeners to his show, I value what he says, and what he recommends.

I don’t know how much business Rush has brought your company, but I’ll guess it’s substantial. This being the case, I was beyond disappointed that ProFlowers decided to be politically correct and drop their sponsorship to Rush’s show simply because Rush expressed a valid opinion about this fraud…Ms. Fluke.

Just as you have made a decision that will affect Mr. Limbaugh, many more of us are also making a decision that will indeed affect you. I have made my LAST purchase from ProFlowers. Please remove my name from your database and stop the solicitation emails.

I’m certainly not alone in my feelings for the politically motivated decision you have made to drop sponsorship of Rush’s show over this phony outrage by people who are neither listeners to his show or your likely customers, past or future.

You might want to take a look around the blogosphere this day; outrage at your decision will have the opposite effect you had intended. Do you really think that dropping sponsorship to Rush’s show in such a politically motivated way will not have financial consequences for your business?

Perhaps you believe that the Occupy Wall Street and MoveOn.org crowd who have astro-turfed this phony outrage are a better demographic for your product.

I believe that you are mistaken

Don’t bother to call. Rush’s listener numbers will continue to be so high that advertisers will be back or he will get new advertiser business. He is still #1 in talk radio. Business is apolitical in the long run and making money comes first. That’s the free market. Even being an ethical or moral business pays off in the long run as customers returning is better than screwing customers if you want to stay in business.

Don’t call them — just don’t buy their products.

That’ll impress them even more.

I'm listening to Rush now on Talk Stream Live, and heard Carbonite advertsing. May just be ads they already had in the que. I wrote Mr Friend the following:

Mr Friend,
The only reason I even know about Carbonite is because of your advertising on Rush Limbaugh’s show. Ok, he said something inappropriate about a woman who thinks I should pay for her sex life! He apologized but apologies are NEVER enough for liberals!

What is going on here, and I would have hoped, as a CEO, you were smart enough to see it, is not about Rush calling this woman a bad name; it’s about a bunch of Alinsky-ites using this circumstance in order to try to shut down an opposing view. It’s also about the left trying to force a Catholic institution to abandon their religious beliefs! This isn’t about Rush calling this woman a bad name. Mr Friend, I served my country for 24 years defending the Constitution of the United States of America. What I see happening to my county these days, as the left drags us further and further into their “socialist utopia,” is truly disturbing to this patriot!

What is going on here is classic Saul Alinsky tactics – can’t you see that? Did you pull advertising from CBS when David Letterman called Sarah Palin a Slut? How about when Letterman made a crude joke about Sarah Palin’s underage daughter being “knocked up” (Letterman’s words) by a famous baseball player? The stuff the left gets away with is sickening, and yet Rush has ONE instance of using an inappropriate term (and immediately apologizes for it) and the left goes nuts and YOU jump on their bandwagon. Shame on you!

I was considering using your service for my small business, but if you pull advertising from Rush and let the leftists win with their Saul Alinsky tactics, you will never see a penny of my money.

Completely disgusted by liberal tactics,
(signed), Major USAF (ret)

I got through to Quicken Loans. Told them I was sorry to have used their service in the past and that I would no longer recommend them because of their decision to pull ads from Limbaugh.

Of course, I got the cheerful customer service response.
