Sears announced that they, too, are dropping Limbaugh:
Sears and Kmart did not intentionally advertise on the Rush Limbaugh show. Sears Holdings has taken actions to ensure our ads do not run on this show. We appreciate our customers, fans and followers and thank you for your business.

Yuck! The mental picture of that pig-faced fat tub of lard dripping buckets of sweat just made me throw up a little in my mouth.

Bullshit.

Radio and tv ads are screened and reviewed and paid for by companies, who know exactly what they are doing, who know which ads, how often, how many. They have to buy the slots ahead of time, and they know it.

Are they trying to say the ad ran away from home and just jumped onto the radio?

Fuck Sears and Kmart for insulting our intelligence.

AND DRIPPING! Oh Gawd! When's it gonna end?"

Sorry Rushbo. It won't end until the world is washed clean of your vile, filthy rhetoric. Indeed, let the drips become the inevitable flood.
