One advertiser, Sleep Train Mattress Centers, said today that it's pulling its ads from Limbaugh's show because "we don't condone negative comments directed toward any group."

I'm not overly familiar with him, thankfully, but I was under the impression that all he did was make negative comments directed toward many groups.

I feel like crowing "How's that States'-Rights-take-precedence thing working out for you now?" to right wingers since individual states are falling into marriage equality like dominos.

You crow, and I'll dance the Dance of How You Like It Now?

It just seems so foolish to try to shame women who take the Pill, given what an overwhelming number of Americans that is.

Somewhat relatedly, anyone heard from Glenn Beck recently?

Yeah, but this time he's hit 51% of the population, and the subgroup who (I believe) makes most of the decisions regarding home purchases, like mattresses.

Limbaugh will just complain that of course the mattress company pulled their ads, because women complained to them, because we sluts just loooove to have sex on mattresses.

Actually, I would think Limbaugh would be thrilled to get rid of an advertiser who *clearly* is encouraging sluts to have sex. I mean, mattresses = sex, AMIRITE?

Letting people have mattresses does make hoors want to screw around more, clearly. I mean, otherwise they are just lying on the ground! (That's how you do it, right? Lady on her back, man on top of her?)

she can make the bed springs sing a song of mercy.

Now my earworm for the day. Let's hope I do not sing it in a meeting.

Pfft. US real sluts don't need a mattress.

Pfft. US real sluts don't need a mattress.

I'm a slut for sex AND comfort. Hence, mattress.

But, uh, as a child of the 80s, who didn't start having sex until the 90s, there's something I've always wondered, as I've never experienced it: isn't it incredibly difficult to have sex on a waterbed? I mean, *something* needs to NOT MOVE for there to be some stability, or traction, or...I can't think of the right word. But still. You get my point. I hope.

I learned on another site that the mattress sponsorship might be a real blow to him. Apparently this is his longest (?) sponsor who has sponsored his show when he was in local markets only.

If true, I find it interesting that THIS is what drove them over the edge. Apparently women who take birth control pills really like to buy beds! :-)
