Sign the Petition - StandwithRush.com

One failure after another, Washington Democrats have built a record of legislative failure; one disappointment after another, Washington Democrats have failed to deliver results to the people who got them there.
This must be why, just nine months into their tenure, the Democrat-led Congress hit an 11% approval rating – that is the lowest in recorded history. Facing their record of failure, Washington Democrats decided to try and distract – and so they took a man's words out of context, then they went on the attack.
It is at moments like these when we need to band together as conservatives and fight back. That is exactly what the Red State community and so many other conservatives around the country have been doing.
This issue is bigger than you or me, it is bigger than Rush Limbaugh. With the recent liberal effort to resurrect the "fairness doctrine," we have to recognize that free speech -- specifically, conservative free speech is under direct attack. These are issues that speak directly to the core of the modern conservative movement – are we going to allow ourselves to be pushed around by liberal extremists, or are we going to fight back?
Send Washington Democrats a message that their attempts to distract aren't working – to stand with Rush Limbaugh against liberal attacks, go sign the petition at StandwithRush.com.

I am heartened to see a complete banding together to fight what amounts to slander against a great voice for conservatism.
I hope to see you all come out over and over against these deadbeats who are now running our Congress and hold them to account on everything.

It's war -- so when can we start shooting back at the enemy Democrats?
Shouldn't our congress be executing Jesse MacBeth for treason? I think his actions warrant Aid and Comfort to terrorists.
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
Had lunch at Extra Billy's on Broad Street during my travels to Richmond today, Rep. Cantor, and read an article about you in the Weekly Standard to boot.
Keep up the good work.
You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you.
Life is not fair, but It's still a Wonderful Life!
Signed it because it is the right thing to do!
however, I must say the number of signatures so far is a bit disappointing. We are at 4500 plus. That isn't nearly enough. There are that many visitors just to Redstate daily. Bloggers, you should all link to this site from your own blog. Send out emails. Tell your friends. This number should be in the millions.

I will say it again, Redstate needs to do more. There are only about five thousand signatures. That isn't enough. Send out emails. Post it on your own blogs. We need to get the signatures into the hundreds of thousands.

We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war.-Ann Coulter
