Found the ad.

Most of the comments at YouTube think it's hilarious.

Everything I have been reading says that they prorate the warranty. And, they don’t replace. You’re stuck. But, I’ll dig it up.

True, Rush has always said, the media didn’t make him so it won’t break him.

I just wondered, don’t know if anyone can answer. But when they sign on for advertising, wouldn’t there be a contract?

If they pull their advertising, will Rush still get paid? I’m sure he was smart enough to put in such clauses. It’s not like Rush has never been “highly controversial” before this.

Do these advertisers know that Sandra Fluke is a fraud? A scam artist? That she is NOT a 23 year old student but a 30 year old activist lawyer?

Of which bar is she a member?

Must be only the ones drunken horndogs frequent, since Martindale can't find her.

I can see the new Select Comfort Georgetown Mattress debuting soon.

With optional shoulder straps to be worn.

Where did you find out Fluke was a lesbian?

"A perfect storm or large scale manipulation?"

Or something we all knew what was coming all along, but hoped to stop.

Doesn't look like we can stop it.

Someone had to fire the 1st shot, and of course it was the evil ones on the left......the "party" of unintended consequences".

Enough drops in the bucket and they will see the error of their ways. Most of the liberals who protested wouldn’t buy their stuff anyway.

They want other people to buy stuff for them.

Anybody got e-mail addresses handy for the advertisers who are bailing?

It would be nice if Hannity, Levin, etal would drop these advertisers if they abandon Rush. Carbonite wouldn’t be in business without the conservative talk show hosts!

What we need is a list of equal businesses to go to, instead of these anti free speech businesses.

I just ordered a couple of cases of his tea myself. I refuse to sit quietly while these left wing A-HOLES try and pull this nonsense.

The Carbonite CEO says he’s got a private meeting scheduled with Rush next week - I’d like to be a fly on that wall!

Oh brother, here we go with the bullcrap.

Lessee - SELECT COMFORT, QUICKEN LOANS, CITRIX, CARBONITE, PRO FLOWERS, LEGAL ZOOM, SLEEP TRAIN - are now on my Personal S***-List for ABJECT STUPIDITY & BLATANT IGNORANCE!

Rush: keep turning-it-up on the commie-libs! $100 says not one lib supports any of those companies; it’s a nationally-coordinated campaign against you. But then you, of all people, know that fact all too well.

Just e-mailed AND called Carbonite. Told them that I was a customer (I am), but will look for a different support group if they pull their advertising from Rush’s program. Seems to me that the guy I spoke to on the phone, was not surprised, and he asked no questions.

"Been curious about that blueberry muffin flavored tea. Think I'll try some."

DO IT!!! Even the lefties at work LOVED it. They thought blueberry iced tea was strange, as we all did because it was never done before.

Even though some of them hate Rush, they LOVED his tea, especially the blueberry.

Did some research today and found LegalZoom co-founder LIU gave to Obama 2012 PAC
http://fundrace.huffingtonpost.com/neighbors.php?type=emp_or_occ&emp=LegalZoom.com%2C+Inc.

http://www.rocketlawyer.com/?utm_source=1000&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=le

“RocketLawyer” is a big competitor of LegalZoom and is now the fastest growing legal prep co on the net. Legal Zoom I also found announced a few days ago that it is preparing for an IPO. RocketLawyer has made LZ not as valuable as it once was. Rocket Lawyer runs their ads on FOXNews. I noticed Hannity uses them instead of LegalZoom.

Twitter supporters of Rush, many #breitbartsarmy are tweeting that Pro Flowers is staying, so the push is to order flowers in support of Rush !!

Limbaugh Sponsor Contact List & Petition

Nine companies remain on the list: Sears, ProFlowers, CARBONITE, Inc., Mid-West Life Insurance Company of Tennessee, American Forces Network, Mission Pharmacal Company, Life Quotes, Inc., Life Lock, Tax Resolution and AOL, parent company of The Huffington Post. (The site lists Lending Tree among the sponsors of the Limbaugh program, despite the company’s statements on Twitter that it is not affiliated with the show.)

I’ve been spending a fair bit of time on the Carbonite facebook page countering the raving lunatics.

I get a kick out of the ones threatening to dump Carbonite and go to Mozy,
I tell them to remember to put the promo code ‘Hannity’ in the check out box.

The advertisers need Rush Limbaugh more than they need to distance themselves. They will find out their business drops off when they cater to moochers and losers.
