Seriously, why would a florist advertise on a hate show? Maybe creeps think flowers=sex.

sex is bad, what is the point.

to have the words rush limbaugh in the same sentence with flowers just does not compute, except of course if the flowers are grown in manure.

The longer they hold off, the worse it looks for them.

I'd hate to be an employee of theirs right now.

Thank you for your feedback. We spend our advertising dollars across a wide spectrum of media channels. The views and opinions of the media outlets and personalities we advertise with are not necessarily those of our company.

We simply wish to delight our customers with fresh and unique gifting products, and that will continue to happen to the best of our abilities.
