As part of their 2012 battle strategy, the Left is busy spinning myth from fiction and pressuring advertisers to abandon the Rush Limbaugh show. Despite an apology from Limbaugh, AOL suspended advertising today, making it sponsor number eight to do so.
What is now obvious is, this is not about civil discourse, as some would allege. One can find instance after instance of television and radio hosts on the Left making the same comment Rush did, and much worse, against Sarah Palin, Laura Ingraham and other conservative women, yet, there was no outrage from the Left then, supposedly in the defense of women, none at all. To her credit, Kirsten Powers, no far-right ideologue, was honest in pointing that out.
Yet, even today, alleged victim Sandra Fluke went on television's The View and suggested people should get their information from Media Matters. That, as much as anything, should tell you precisely what's going on here.

Here is what Rush had to say about the advertising,

I received loan literature from quicken today.
I called them and told them to cancel my name from their
mailing list as they had cancelled Rush.
They said they had only suspended advertising with Rush,
so I asked that they suspend me also, and add me back when they resumed with Rush.
They acted kinda upset.
Too bad.
What goes around......
Excellent!
