Jennifer Granholm calls for War Room watchers to speak out against Rush Limbaugh by signing two petitions that aim to push him off the airwaves. Two GOP guests agree that Limbaugh is out of line with his controversial comments, saying wrong is wrong.
We invite you to sign two petitions to help put an end to Limbaughs misogynistic and derogatory comments.

In the wake of Rush Limbaughs tirade against Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke, dozens of advertisers have started withdrawing their sponsorship from the controversial radio hosts program. ThinkProgress reports 30 sponsors of Limbaughs show have suspended their ad spends so far. In addition to his sponsors, radio stations have also started to dump his show.
For our latest call to action, we invite you to sign two petitions to help put an end to Limbaughs misogynistic and derogatory comments.
More than 250,000 people have signed this first petition to Clear Channel Communications ( http://signon.org/sign/clear-channel-discontinue?source=mo&id=36711-12477573-tNiBylx ) asking them to terminate Limbaughs offensive show.
Our second petition is to Leon Panetta, the United States Secretary of Defense ( https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/!/petition/sec-panetta-get-rush-limbaugh-armed-forces-radio-now-no-tax-money-abusive-divisive-insulting/p439GWMm ). We are asking him to remove Limbaughs show from the Armed Forces Radio Network programming.

(30,885 posts)No idea what's happening here.
The link in my OP above shows as "http" rather than "https" (secure). When I went back to edit it, my OP contains "https." So I will report this in the "Help & Meta Discussion" forum.
Meanwhile, the CORRECT URL (which does work, I just tested it) is:
https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/!/petition/sec-panetta-get-rush-limbaugh-armed-forces-radio-now-no-tax-money-abusive-divisive-insulting/p439GWMm
You will need to copy this link, change "http" to "https," and type it in your browser. Then it will work.

Thanks for straightening out the problem with the second link.
It's great to have these two petitions available.
