Sadly, and maddeningly, I think he’s gonna take a lot more hits (sponsors leaving) on this before it all blows over.

These advertisers are looking like fools, IMO. I hope they lose lots of business.

Are they so stupid they don't understand that the idiots complaining to advertisers aren't the 20 million who listen to Rush.

Pro Flowers is Shari’s Berries...

Look at the very top of their web page for a list of their affiliates.

The berries are something that any small candy company could make and with an investment by Rush and a little free advertising be #1 in no time.

"I want to know who to boycott"

I mean no disrespect and this is not a flame but I doubt Pro Flowers is fretting that Blam, or any other patriot, is taking his floral business elsewhere.

Boycotts are passive. Better to call and argue calmly but relentlessly. Talk and talk and talk until they disconnect. Talk is active, time is money, a live voice is more effective than a website full of names or a flower unbought. JMO.

Rush should call ProFlowers personally and order their biggest bouquet to be sent to Fluke and make a big deal about it on the air, then call Sleep Train and do the same thing.

Then call legal zoom and tell the to incorporate "slutsrus, inc.

For free!

The leftists are going hard after LifeLock, TaxResolution, Midwest Life and Clear Channel now. We should counter this with a strong outpouring of support for Rush.

Proflowers are ugly and they die quickly.

Exactly!

And once you piss off a long time good customer good luck getting one to replace them especially a CHEAP liberal.

"I have bought Shari’s Berries for years but will no longer!"

Umm...Has Shari's Berries dropped advertising on Rush? I haven't heard that.

Smart conservatives aim before they fire. Don't make us look stupid.

The Berry people and Pro Flowers are the same company.

Well Pro Flowers dropped Rush with nothing but an organized political campaign by a bunch of lunatics with a computer! I guess it worked.

Good point blam,

Sluts don't get flowers.

Sluts get diseases.
