More Flush Rush

I know I have already written about flushing Rush, but since he is still on the air, we still have work to do.  We have expanded our Flush Rush campaign to local chapters where Rush still airs on local stations.  A lot of our chapters are excited for this action.  Our targets are the local radio station as well as the local sponsors.  Our chapters will either hold a protest outside the station or one of the sponsors or conduct petition drives and deliver the signatures to the sponsors and station.  I am excited because we have planned an action for the national office as well.  So the last day of my internship will be spent protesting Rush Limbaugh, and I cannot think of a better way to spend my last day.  


The office is also preparing for their annual conference, which will be held in Baltimore at the end of June.  Their conference is very interesting, because it serves as the governing body of the organization.  On the last day of the conference, the members vote and discuss resolutions.    Every four years, they elect new officers.  When they say they are a grassroots organization, they are not joking.


Hope everyone at a wonderful Easter and Passover!
