pro Limbaugh petition picking up votes (action needed) [View all]

As you may already know, the petition calling for Limbaugh to be kicked off AFN (American Forces Network) has already met the threshold of 25,000 signatures.

However, the petition to keep him on AFN is also picking up votes and will likely meet the threshold of 25,000 by April 10th, when it is due. If the threshold is met, the two petitions will effectively cancel each other, leaving things as they are, meaning Limbaugh will stay on the air.

There is a second petition calling for the FCC to investigate his on-air comments, I recommend signing the second petition so he can be investigated by the FCC. If there is probable cause, his broadcaster license could be suspended on yanked.

Links to both petitions below, if you haven't signed either or both, please do so.

1. Limbaugh off AFN petition - http://wh.gov/X1O

2. FCC, investigate his comments petition - http://wh.gov/9XY

Please act !
