My email to the sponsors of Rush's show has gotten a TON of feedback within hours! One company wrote me back that they are "rethinking" their approach and apologize for offending me. "We are currently working to resolve any messaging which may be considered offensive, or which may be interpreted as a statement we did not intend to make."

Another wrote me back that they no longer sponsor him, and I replied that I would then consider moving my business to their company as I appreciated their decency and concern in getting back to me within hours.

To be clear, I'm not trying to boycott anyone. I'm simply letting them know that they are sponsoring something which is deeply offensive to me, and as such, I am taking my business elsewhere but look forward to doing business with them in the future, as I like their companies.

I let them know that it simply wasn't decent to wish our nation to fail when we are at war and in financial peril, and that I felt we all needed to support our new President even if we didn't vote for him. I referenced how the Dixie Chicks were treated when they dared to question our then President during times of peril:-)

I'm sure this post will sink like the titanic- I have a knack for that -- but I'm thrilled and I'll bet there is at least one other person here who will be happy with me:-)

I love having them on the defensive!!!

I'm going to pour a big one. I love my President. :fistbump::fistbump::fistbump::fistbump:

STOP THE RUSH LIMBAUGH REPUBLICANS FROM OBSTRUCTING OUR NATION
