Rush Limbaugh is under attack. Your immediate action is needed

++ Rush Limbaugh is under attack. Your immediate action is needed. See details.

To All;

The radical left activist group, Media Matters (funded by George Soros and others) has launched an all-out smear attack against Rush Limbaugh. And the liberal media are shamelessly promoting the assault.

Their goal? To force Rush off the air. Unless our MRC Action Team takes a stand right now, they could actually succeed.

Here is what is happening:

Media Matters is claiming that Rush called any soldier that opposes the war a "phony soldier." In fact, Rush was referencing an anti-war activist who falselyand despicably passed himself off as an Army Ranger and Purple Heart winner.

Rush was calling the phony soldier a "phony soldier"!

MSNBC willfully echoed the liberal attack campaign against Rush -- despite the obvious spin and deception by Media Matters. CBS's online "Public Eye" then joined in. And now, liberals in Congress are trying to get Rush removed from Clear Channel radio.

+ + Urgent Action Items

Action #1 -- Demand Clear Channel Radio "Keep Rush"

XXXX, Our contacts tell us liberal groups are flooding Clear Channel with demands to get Rush removed.

Go here to Email or Call Clear Channel to support Rush: (Note: after you send your letter, click here)

http://www.MRCaction.org/r.asp?u=2246&rid=11790865

Action #2 -- Flood Congress with calls today.

Liberal Senators are moving a resolution forward to publicly denounce Rush. We are urging all members of the MRC Action Team to contact your Congressman and Senators telling them you are offended by this action and urge them to oppose any legislative measure attacking Rush.

Sen. Schumer: 202-224-6542 Sen. Clinton: 202-224-4451

Congressional Switchboard: 202-224-3121

XXXX, I want to be able to report to the media how our MRC Action Team is responding to this attack. Once you take action on either or both of these items, simply click here and our system will automatically log that you have taken action:

http://www.MRCaction.org/r.asp?u=2242&rid=11790865

This is nothing more than an all-out effort to silence Rush and liberals will not stop until he is removed from the airwaves.

Thank you for taking action with me.

RE: Keep Rush Limbaugh

Dear Ms. Dollinger,

Recent news has it that Clear Channel Media is contemplating taking Rush Limbaugh off the air because of a bogus accusation trumped up by the leftwing organization Media Matters. Media do matter Ms. Dollinger, and that is why it would be unconscionable and no doubt economically foolish for Clear Channel to take Mr. Limbaugh’s excellent voice and message off the air.

I can sympathize with Democrat liberals who have found it difficult to get their message out via the airwaves, which is why they’re so intent on manufacturing grievances against the likes of Don Imus, Bill O’Reilly, and now Rush Limbaugh.

But Clear Channel should not bow to their impotence. If your channel really stands for free speech, it is important that you keep the debate going and keep Rush Limbaugh broadcasting for all the world to hear.

Sincerely yours,

X X

Fred Thompson (and any other Republican presidential candidate) would do himself a favor by quickly launching a vigorous defence of Rush. I would like to see the President weigh in on the Democrat’s attack on Rush as well.

“liberals in Congress are trying to get Rush removed from Clear Channel radio.”

Isn't Rush basically Clear Channel radio? What is he worth to Clear Channel?

So Clear Channel drops him and Rush starts Rush Radio. Or buys Clear Channel. Liberals’ thwarted again.

Case closed.

Media Matters is simply a political mouthpiece for leftest propagandizing and should have it’s 401c3 status jerked. The quicker the better.

How in the world did the people in Nevada EVER elect a complete nut-case, left wing, treasonous moron like that? It’s absolutely amazing.

I agree with you but the left wing has clearly fired shots in the last months and now a clear bullet has been sent to Rush. I think we have to be active in shutting the door on these monkeys. We must be heard or Harry Reid will have his way in the Senate. You know how wishywashy the Republicans can get if we don’t tell them that there is support from the Right.

And what would be the result of that? That the Dems are committed to a bald faced lie on the Senate record? Why would you want to get in the way of that?

Drinking Coffee  Well, let's not get our panties in a bunch here. Clear Channel isn't about to release someone with 15,000,000 listeners each and every business day.  If they get 40,000,000 letters from liberals... who cares?  They weren't listeners to begin with.  Nothing is lost.
We all know there is not one single fan of Rush Limbaugh that is about to jump on this anti-Rush bandwagon.  His ratings will be the same tomorrow as they were today, same thing next month and next year.

Probably all of the people who moved from California...at least Nevada has one Republican senator...

His enemies will have to eat crow one day.... this will all fly back in their faces, why ? you say ? because we get people like Rush once in a generation with a gift that God granted them, and if he is close to God, God will take care of Rush and see his enemies defeated soundly.
