I know ya'll will recall the countdown series of diaries to get 25,000 signatures on the petition I started by using teacherken's excellent wording.
we petition the obama administration to: Sec. Panetta, Get Rush Limbaugh Off Armed Forces Radio NOW! No tax money for abusive, divisive, insulting language.It is not bad enough that he provides partisan blather, that he demeans our President.
He has regularly demeaned women.
His remarks this week were well beyond the pale of what should be broadcast to our military and their families, supported with our tax dollars.
We have a moral objection to our tax dollars being used for such a purpose.
You should move immediately to cancel any further broadcast through government facilities of his venom.
There is no excuse for the US Government, in any capacity, giving this man an audience.
It is an insult to the honorable men and women who serve this nation. Created: Mar 04, 2012 Issues: Budget and Taxes, Defense, Veterans and Military Families
Well, the petition, which was supposed to have closed on April 3, is still up and getting signatures, 28,417 as of today. You can still sign it if you haven't already done so, but you must register at the site and then close the site and open it back up for your registration to "click." It ain't rocket surgery, just a PITA.
