Confessions of a Little Sniveling Jerk

In another lifetime, commuting require my travel when Rush's program was airing.

I confess that I listened out of amusement. Even when Rush initially burst onto the public stage, his ignorance and lack of education was breathtaking.

I can't say I was ever able to endure an entire program because it was vacuous. Even driving, his rhetoric was somnolent and uninformed, yet Rush spewed the extremist Think Tank rhetoric effectively.....I guess and was apparently appealing to a vast uneducated audience that thrives on hate that gets the adrenaline pumping.

That was before Rush's drug abuse, personal issues and escalating extremism. Maybe you had to be a devoted and faithful 'Ditto Head' to believe Rush's rants make sense.

The long overdue desertion of advertisers should have been accomplished by responsible corporations that reviewed the HATE and not from an organized effort.

Rush Limbaugh Admits StopRush is Kicking His Ass

 
 
 
On Tuesday's show, Rush Limbaugh acknowledged that the "sniveling jerks" of the StopRush movement have driven his advertising possibilities into the ground:







"When you look at a ... show that is by far number 1, and they're still running penile enhancement ads, what's happening is that mainstream media buyers are sending money elsewhere, trying to harm them. Well, penile, take your pick,the Ronco Veg-o-matic, you know--while McDonald's and Coke and Meineke are everywhere else.

These are things we had to overcome on this pro--we have to fight that battle every day here anyway. Cause these little sniveling jerks are out there trying to scare advertisers, still goes on."

As usual, Limbaugh has some of his facts confused. The "little sniveling jerks" he refers to would be the StopRush movement, groups like the Flush Rush Facebook community.

But these groups aren't "trying to scare advertisers," they're simply contacting advertisers and quoting Rush Limbaugh verbatim to be sure the sponsor is aware of what they're being associated with.

Many of them aren't aware, and they often choose to pull their ads off the show.
2638 have requested their ads not air on the Rush Limbaugh Show as of today.
But the reason these organizations pull their ads off the show isn't because of StopRush volunteers, it's because of the offensive content that comes out of Limbaugh's mouth--including regular homophobic rants, racial stereotypes, poor bashing, and even last week's incredibly insensitive jokes about exploding pressure cookers, just one day after 3 people were brutally murdered in Boston. Respectable organizations want nothing to do with that kind of thing.

Limbaugh alone is responsible for his advertiser exodus--nobody else.

As Limbaugh's large, well known advertisers have headed for the door, ad rates that Limbaugh used to call "confiscatory" have dropped to all time lows.

Advertisers like Sony, Hallmark, Cadillac, and Office Depot have been replaced by a ragtag bunch including a suspected pyramid scheme, shady identity protection software, and even a church led by a murdering pastor. Oh, and the "penile enhancements."



One of Limbaugh's faithful advertisers is the National Male Medical Clinic, one of quite a few similar businesses peddling cures to men with limp noodles.

A warning to anyone who clicks on the youtube link in the second tweet--it's a graphic video of "Mr. S" injecting erectile dysfunction medication directly into his penis--because that's how far El Rushbo has sunk. He's now plugging intrapenous drug use.
