SUPPORT These Sponsors who have Dropped Rush!
PLEASE – DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE, THEY ARE ALL HEROS – Rush’s loyal followers who are proud to be called “DittoHeads” are following their cult-leader’s directive and attacking these companies for cancelling ads on Limbaugh – lets IMPROVE THEIR BUSINESS not ignore them now that they’ve pledged not to advertise w/Rush. Please scroll down for updates

Sleep Train lots of rumors and back and forth but this article in the Washington Post confirms they have “parted ways”
American Bullion, Inc. : “Update: Due to the overwhelming responses, we have officially requested a cease and desist of our advertisements on the Rush Limbaugh radio program. Unfortunately, we have been told by our ad agency we cannot stop the ads already in the ad queue, but going forward, we will not advertise on Rush Limbaugh as we stand behind our customers and feel it is the right thing to do. Thank you again for voicing your concerns!”
Yes, it has truly been a glorious day. =)
