Rush to Appear on Move America Forward Telethon

by Rush Limbaugh - Jun 24,2008

RUSH: Programming note here, ladies and gentlemen. I’m sure many of you have heard the names Melanie Morgan and Michelle Malkin, and they have a website that is called Move America Forward, it’s actually an organization and a movement. They have a website called MoveAmericaForward.org and they’ve got a giant telethon planned all day Thursday. The objective of the telethon is to provide the largest care package ever of items of interest to American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Melanie sent me an e-mail a couple weeks ago and asked if I — it’s a Jerry Lewis-type telethon they’re going to do on their website — and Melanie asked me if I would participate in this, and I said, ‘Sure,’ so we’re going to Dittocam it on their website at 4:20 in the afternoon on Thursday, but they’re going to be going I think all day long. I don’t know the schedule of events that people are going to be appearing, but what this really is about is troops in Iraq and Afghanistan to know that the Drive-By Media does not represent America and that the American people love and support the armed forces, men and women overseas, particularly in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the objective, as I said, is to send the largest shipment of care packages to US troops in history.

Now, this is cool. I imagine that this largest care package or the largest care packages could include any number of things that people want to send the troops in combat and in Iraq and Afghanistan. So it’s Thursday, June the 26th, Jerry Lewis-style telethon, and the time we’re going to be on is 20 minutes at 4:20 Eastern time in the afternoon. If you want to find out the whole shebang, find out what this is all about, go to MoveAmericaForward.org, and you can join this effort as well. The effort’s going to be you. Frankly, you’re the ones that are going to have to come through and make this happen. With so many people participating in this, they’re going to be able to collect a tremendous number of items for the care package, with just a few items per person or one item. So details will be forthcoming. It’s just a couple days from now, and I wanted to mention it to you.
