Folks, time for "Operation Boot the LardAss" phase two...

ok sponsors are dropping from the walking AssBoil... time to hit him harder.

Call your local stations that carry that vile gasbag and tell them flat out...

AS LONG AS YOU GIVE THAT WORTHLESS EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING AIR TIME TO SPEW
HIS BIGOTRY AND HATRED, YOUR STATION IS OFF FOR ME. FOR EVERYTHING. EVERY SHOW.
LOCAL SPONSORS OF YOUR ARE OFF MY 'BUY' LIST. ALL OF THEM

Just got off the phone with my local station and they are getting slammed. Be polite (person that
answer the phone is not to blame) but be firm.

OH, and fire off a letter to the FCC re: local station airing bigoted, hate speech. It goes in the station
file and will be part of the license renewal process.

Sic'em people...

he is useless.

By the time this is over, he'll be lucky to have a pot to piss in.

I think this will be the final straw. He's going to have to plead for mercy if he wants to get out of this one.

Go to the Activism topic group and start a petition.
I started a thread there -- help me get rid of Rush.

Will be in touch with the FCC this week.

My "ex" was a fan of his - one of many reasons he is "ex."
