COLUMBIA - Women from the Columbia Area National Organization for Women (NOW) will give up their lunch breaks Tuesday to gather outside of the KFRU radio station in Columbia protesting the station's airing of Rush Limbaugh's radio show. The protest will start at 12:15 p.m.

The demonstration is not the first time Columbia Area NOW has spoke out against the controversial radio host. Limbaugh's program, which airs weekdays at 11 a.m. and weekends at 12 p.m. has faced local and national criticism.

On March 19, the organization hand delivered 508 toilet paper rolls to the state capitol after House Speaker Steven Tilley, R-Perryville announced that Limbaugh would be receiving a honorary bust. They called the protest "Flush Rush

5. That's great news but it doesn't seem that anyone can

get that windbag off the air.

15. They are giving it a good try

One day he will have to be removed.

That will be one happy day ~ how the Rethugs can view them as their "leader" is way beyond me.

6. Please, tell me you didn't purchase Koch Industires Georgia Pacific produced toilet paper

for the protest. That would really make the protesters seem misguided.

7. And here I was thinking that everybody forgot about OxyRush.

He deserves to get kicked off the air for everything he's done, but unfortunately I think the efforts of the protestors are futile. They'll likely end up not firing him because, as I've stated before, he's the Republican Party's Tom Brady. Without him, they're weak.

8. Rush is too dangerous to be kept around

Even if he is taken off the air, he'll always find a way back. And that scares me.

11. Maybe he'll fly on a small plane. Oh, wait, he's too big.

13. Muahaha.

[Great Caesars Ghost]

18. Good!!!!! Maybe it'll crash!!!

[Uncle Joe]

10. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, pstokely.

12. Cool! And in Rush's home state, too!

He's from Cape Girardeau

14. Has there ever been a more polarizing "entertainer" taking up so much air time?

And he's still on the air.

16. Flush Rush........I'm gettin a T-Shirt made.

17. Wouldn't it have great if this had happened 30 years ago.

It's great that it's happening now, too.

Why so slow, America? Or am I just hyperactive?
