“If someone finds buying $0.25 condoms and $8 for a month supply of generic birth control pills a financial burden, how many times are they likely to spend $39.95 for a dozen roses each month?”
And how likely is it that they can afford a hoity-toity law school?

Good job! In reading through some of the thousands of responses, there were many comments in full support of Rush. At church yesterday, someone snickered about "Idiot Rush" and his ridiculous comment. Really?! I asked him if he ever listened to Rush ... "no". So, it is just what he heard about the comment via the msm. I then stepped him through the facts about Sandra Fluke and how Rush, though not a catholic, had gone out on a limb to defend and support the Catholic Church. That cooled his heels but did not alter his opinion that Rush puts down everyone. Sigh .. one fool at a time ... my work is cut out for next Sunday :-)
Go Rush! Will be tuned in at 12 noon sharp today!

"....This seems like an opportunity for some small upstart company to get some exposure......"
If I were Rush, juyst to make a point (and get even) I would offer deeply discounted advertising rates to new advertisers...and charge triple the rates to the ones who left, if they want to come back.

“We were looking at Sleep Number beds to replace our aging bed. Not after this, and they will be getting a call later”
We bought one and hated it. We returned it within two weeks and had a hard time doing that. We bought it because of the advertising on Rush’s show.
A funny tidbit amidst all the drama. CEO is Bill McLaughlin. He took over around 2001 and led a huge turnaround. He advertised with Rush. Ironically, he’s stepping down in a couple of months.

At least he didn't call her a nappy headed ho, the left are doing the jig prior to St. Patty's day. But they will be surprised by the revival he will have it will be spiritual.

It really was a rather vague apology. And the entirety of Ratdom was getting ready to crucify Rush on the issue and now that thrust has fallen flat on its face.Very true. He expressed regret at his choice of words. Of course the rats will continue to yap about this forever, but now the "slut" won't be able to claim libel or defamation. The sponsors that bailed will be quickly replaced.

Pro Flowers is a ripoff anyway. They advertised $19.99 which really turned out to be $34.99 after all the added charges. Plus they then turned around and SPAMmed me up the backside with promo garbage for themselves and all of their sister companies (Sherries Berries, Vermont Teddy Bear, etc.)

Are there no more conservative companies?
Even "conservative" companies are staffed with twenty-something Marketing majors who can be rolled with relatively mild Social Networking tactics. They've been living on Facebook and Twitter so long they've come to mistake it for the real world.

Follow the money. I am sure that Rush apologized under great pressure from the sponsors. He needs the money to keep the show on the air. That is the way it works in commercial radio. Hopefully, he will address this today.
Some of the sponsors have "suspended" their support of the show, which means that they will probably return. Given Obama's involvement and the MSM making this a huge story, Rush will have to weather a tough storm. Fluke is just a pretext to get Rush. Her personal story is really irrelevant.

I just notified ProFlowers that I would no longer be buying their products and would encourage others to do likewise.
I told them that Mr. Limbaugh had the right to express his opinion on his radio show. Just as they have the right to remove their sponsorship, I have the right to never buy their products again.
