SINSULL, Geico says,

In 2004 when Rush Limbaugh's program also carried remarks that were inappropriate, we ceased all advertising on his show. We don't advertise there to this day. On occasion, a local station may mistakenly run a GEICO ad in the wrong time slot. We are directing our ad buyers to make sure that doesn't happen.

John Stewart had a really good spot on it. I think he's spot on in his point that this is not unexpected for Rush, the problem being even more that candidates, elected officials, and conservative media members see nothing wrong with it.

(And, after actually seeing the clip with Santorum's comment on the statement being "absurd", he's lost what few points he had on the topic with me. When you read it as I've just put it there, you can frame it as being "absurd!", with some sense of outrage. The way he actually said it was dismissive, as in "it's just a joke and that's the way he is.")
