Another Rush advertiser - Vitacost gone

Email to me in response to my email to Vitacost:

Thank you for contacting Vitacost.com.

We’d like to address an issue with our radio ads -- one of which aired on
the Rush Limbaugh radio show. To put it frankly, Mr. Limbaugh's recent
comments have been unsettling, and many of our fans have voiced concern
that Vitacost endorses these views. These comments are definitely not in
line with our brand values, and in listening to our fans we've decided to
remove our advertising from the program.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with, it
will be my pleasure

Thank you for choosing Vitacost.com

Tells me that Domino's is owned by Bain, and therefore by, religious nut jobs.

Thank goodness that Pizza Hut opened right by my house. Domino's can kiss my ass, as can any company run, owned by or governed by a religious right wing nut job. If Pizza Hut is owned by religious right wingers, well, I'll do without.

Thanks, right wing.

You are helping to eliminate yourselves via Rush. He made it too obvious, finally.

Seems like all of the corporate weasels are going to have to now bail so they aren't viewed as Rush's only corporate supporter.

They have great prices on healthy food staples and tons of organics.

If anyone is interested, I have a referral link that will give you $10 off your first order. PM me if you want.

Advertisers who still remain with PusBag should have it pointed out to them
they choose to buck popular opinion and remain in the extremist minority.

I'm going to go home and order something. I think I'll buy my daughter-in-law some things. She was sweeping and mopping my kitchen when I went home for lunch.

Thank you, Vitacost!!!!

I've been using them for about 6 months and haven't had a complaint, yet. Well worth a shout out!
