Extra-marital dating sites offer to fill Rush Limbaugh's lost ad spots



http://entertainment.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/03/07/10600616-limbaugh-loses-rushs-music-but-gains-statue-in-missouri-capitol

In addition to Gabriel and Rush pulling their music from the show, dozens of advertisers, including Sleep Number, Quicken Loans, Carbonite, ProFlowers, AOL, Sears and others reportedly have pulled ads from the program.

However, at least one advertiser -- extramarital dating site Ashley Madison -- wants in. According to Business Insider, the controversial website says it will "step up and fill the void" left by fleeing advertisers.

SeekingArrangement.com, a website that matches "sugar daddies" and "sugar babies," also wants to buy ads, Business Insider reported, though Limbaugh may not thank them for their remarks. The publication quotes CEO Brandon Wade as saying, "Rush Limbaugh is one of the greatest examples of the modern day Sugar Daddy. We wouldn't feel right if we didn't come forward and support him in his time of need."

It's GOP's style sexuality, all related to money.

Every single thing gets down to money with them, who gets healthcare, housing, food, civil rights, education, voting, etc.

So this would fit in with the business and social model Rush has always promoted:

Pay for every act of sex, Viagra pills or BC pills. Or else become a monk or a nun. Or go to third world sex tourist countries like Rush does and pay some kid or poverty stricken man or woman to help him use up his Viagra prescription.

will eventually be the only advertisers because women aren't major purchasers of either. He's jumped the shark as far as any advertiser who depends on women for a large percentage of their sales is concerned.
