Matters Concerning Rush Limbaugh and Sandra Fluke

Snips from Facebook page below

"As the longest time advertiser on the Rush Limbaugh show, Lear Capital has often disagreed with the views and opinions expressed during a given broadcast.... Nonetheless, Lear Capital is very concerned with recent statements Mr. Limbaugh made about Sandra Fluke... We welcome your comments and concerns as well.

It simply isn't fair.
