Limbaugh Says Fox Exploited Disease…
…I say Limbaugh is an asshole.
His body visibly wracked by tremors, actor Michael J. Fox appears in a political ad that was the subject of widespread discussion on Monday after conservative radio commentator Rush Limbaugh claimed Fox was “either off his medication or acting.”
A victim of Parkinson’s disease, Fox speaks out in the ad for Missouri Democratic Senate candidate Claire McCaskill, who supports embryonic stem cell research.
“I think this is exploitative in a way that’s unbecoming of either Claire McCaskill or Michael J. Fox,” Limbaugh said on his syndicated show.
On his Web site Tuesday, Limbaugh appeared to back away from his accusation.
“All I’m saying is I’ve never seen him the way he appears in this commercial for Claire McCaskill,” says Limbaugh. “So I will bigly, hugely admit that I was wrong, and I will apologize to Michael J. Fox, if I am wrong in characterizing his behavior on this commercial as an act, especially since people are telling me they have seen him this way on other interviews and in other television appearances.”
“As you might know I care deeply about stem cell research,” says Fox, who has struggled with Parkinson’s disease for more than a decade. “In Missouri you can elect Claire McCaskill, who shares my hope for cures.” source

I’ve always thought he was a jerk! I never give him the ratings and when he’s on someone else’s show I hit the remote.

Perhaps he was acting…and he even admits in his own book that he stops his meds to be more effective..I think you should post the rebuttal ad by those opposing the measure. The rebuttal ad has several actors from Hollywood along with Jim Caviziel (Jesus from Passion of the Christ) and Cardinals game 4 starter Jeff Suppan
