What makes this attempt particularly interesting is that progressives typically eschew ad boycotts both for free speech reasons and because it is a favorite technique of their ideological opponents.

Pure unadulterated horsesh#t. This must be boycott attempt number 437 — all by "progressives." They all failed, as will this one.

I just got called back from Lumber Liquidators. After getting my e-mail they went to go look at the websites that started this garbage. They were in fact reconsidering their advertising, but after going to check out the anti-american haters they understand this is an isolated effort and will be releasing a PR statement shortly reconfirming their efforts to advertise on Rush's show.

The guy who called me was very friendly and said they had been scratching their heads over the hate e-mail they have been getting. In his words DUmmyland and onlinejournal.com are "pretty stinky".

I'd put my money on your theory.

Let them spin their wheels boycotting Rush. Maybe they won't have as much time to defend butchering babies.

Amen to your comments re: the above. Maybe someone should run this past the Augusta National people and when they stop laughing, we could ask their opinion.
