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? Click here to add your name, and then pass it along to your friends:

There is a “button” in the upper right hand corner.
Since they don’t validate signatures, anyone could sign it an place praises in the comments section for Limbaugh.

Put your big boy pants on and play the game hard or go home.
Limbaugh spoke truth.

Thanks for the advice Pops. It was RUSH that offered the apology. Are you saying he was wrong to do so? He could have accomplished the same thing without devolving to the same name-calling like Mahr (calling Palin the "C" word). Many conservative women I know have held their conservative position, but now refuse to listen to Rush. I can't blame them. He should have shown some class, and he knows it.

So you know wimpy easily offend conservative women, the ones I know all laughed and thought he was great and speaks the truth.
If your ‘friends’ wont listen to him because he said slut, IE called a slut a slut, then the conservative movement is lost.......no wait most conservative women have more brains than your friends.
This is hard ball, it is going to be hard to win back our country, we do not need noddle spine people of either gender.
So pull up those pants and put some steel in your back bone.

“Clear Channel’s not going to shoot the golden goose.”

Ad $$ are what make the goose golden.

But as long as Rush has been broadcasting, hopefully he’ll weather this storm. It’s just frightening how the Left’s power grows and, from the White House down, threatens to stifle conservative speech.

Not this woman! I’m no longer silent. Half the list of Rush’s advertisors down. Half to go. Calling my radio station and emailing them thanking them for carrying Rush’s show.

Plus, I’m no longer a Republican. I’m a conservative and will vote as such.

LOL, bet most on the petition don’t even listen to Rush.

_________________________________________

My experience here lately and mostly on Facebook, is that not only do they not listen to Rush, but they want to convince you that they KNOW what the man thinks and what he means. When given facts about 2009 David Letterman’s statutatory rape joke of 14 year old Willow Palin (ABC, CBS, FOX Google — Palin vs. Letterman) getting “KNOCKED UP” by Alex Rodriquez, one lib acutally had the gall to write the following:

“Well Willow Palin and Bristol deserve this because they are the poster children for abstinance.”

Other libs like to name call with their hate, yell, scream, and insult thereby avoiding the argument. Then they claim they have won and you have lost. One guy said the facts of David Letterman’s statutatory rape joke and Bill Mahr’s comments didn’t hold water. Why when they are factually proven? Because Limbaugh’s apology was not sincere, Limbaugh is a sexist, bigot, homophobe etc....

Yeah, I know makes perfect sense.

Again with the insults. I hope a conservative can have a position without calling the opposition vulgar names. So the only conservative position must be an uncivil one? I don't think so. I hope not. It is not the example I'd like to leave behind. Reagan was strong without calling anyone a slut on the public airwaves. Netanyahu is a class act - strong, steel-spined, and civil. It can be done, and it is more attractive.

And where’s the outrage when Bill Maher gives Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman the same treatment?

An insult is different from being vulgar. Learn the difference. I am not offended, but just pointing out that you are continuing the insults. They are not necessary, and neither is name-calling.

Oh good lord. I did not call you a name but I will if you want. I said pull up your big boy pants and get a spine.
The women I know are NOT offended or weak kneed about Limbaugh. Maybe because I am in CA we need to be tougher.
bye bye and have a good night

i think a database of those names would be very interesting. of course, not all those names are real... ie: Glenn Beck. typical progressives. fraud is perfectly find as long as it helps their cause.

a database of their names made available and able to be referenced would help employers in their hiring practices

DO NOT associate with progressives
DO NOT hire progressives
DO NOT enable them to advance in their careers
REMOVE them from your company if possible, or ‘nudge’ them into quitting

WE OUTNUMBER THEM ... MAKE IT HURT

they don’t like capitalism so why should they benefit from it?

No, Rush will NEVER go to satellite.

Why not? Hannity, Glen Beck, and Mark Levin are there. You can listen wherever you are driving in the country.
