and Diabetes all at the same time?
Limburger attacked Michael J. Fox who made a commercial attacking Bush on stem cell research. In the commercial Fox is seen on a "bad day", which are getting worse for him, and Limbaugh said Fox was "acting".

Limbaugh is a worthless human. He is a racist who attacked an NFL player because he is Black. He attacks drug users while pill-popping himself. He is a total waste of space. He is disgusting...

What a horrible thing to wish on anybody.
I like Michael J Fox.
In saying that, If I was Michael J Fox and I believed passionately in the whole Stem Cell Research issue and if I felt that foregoing my medication would give the people a clear picture of the effects that Parkinson's Disease was having on my body I very well may do just that. Who wouldn't? Nobody knows what any of us would do unless we are in that specific condition and circumstance. To most of us Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimers are only names of diseases. Most of us have been blessed with not having to witness these diseases first hand.
Now, I personnaly am not in favor of the Federal Government funding stem cell research which is what Michael J Fox and others want.
By the way, what is wrong with adult stem cell research? There is growing evidence that it will work. Why does it only have to be embryonic stem cell research?

Limbaugh also said Michael J. Fox went off his medication so his symptoms would look worse on the commercial.
Limbaugh should know what somebody looks like when they're off their meds!

Court I will have to disagree with you I don't know where you get your facts from but here is the amendment.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
Be it resolved by the people of the state of Missouri that the Constitution be amended:
One new section is adopted by adding one new section to be known as section 38(d) of Article III to read as follows:
Section 38(d). 1. This section shall be known as the “ Missouri Stem Cell Research and Cures Initiative.”
2. To ensure that Missouri patients have access to stem cell therapies and cures, that Missouri researchers can conduct stem cell research in the state, and that all such research is conducted safely and ethically, any stem cell research permitted under federal law may be conducted in Missouri, and any stem cell therapies and cures permitted under federal law may be provided to patients in Missouri, subject to the requirements of federal law and only the following additional limitations and requirements:
----(1) No person may clone or attempt to clone a human being.----
(2) No human blastocyst may be produced by fertilization solely for the purpose of stem cell research.
(3) No stem cells may be taken from a human blastocyst more than fourteen days after cell division begins; provided, however, that time during which a blastocyst is frozen does not count against the fourteen-day limit.
(4) No person may, for valuable consideration, purchase or sell human blastocysts or eggs for stem cell research or stem cell therapies and cures.
Please everyone look at number one. What does that say?

I am so p.issed off about this! I just saw one of the ads tonight, and just now I read about it on msnbc. How could anyone, even that dope fiend a.sshole Limbaugh think it was an act? He is such a pig... Notice how he turned around on his original statement and now says he's wrong, but Fox is "being used" by Democrats. He's said some low sh!t before, but this is the lowest of the low. To make a statement like that is beneath even him. Betcha Ann Coulter agrees with it, too. Are the republicans so scared of losing the House and Senate in two weeks that they have to resort to making fun of people with illnesses? My great aunt has Parkinson's, and I'm offended on her behalf as well. Rush, and anyone who listens to and agrees with him, are everything that is wrong and disgusting about this country today. He's a pig, a liar, and a schmuck.

OK Limbaugh saying Fox was acting is one thing, but the commercial that Fox made is misleading. At least the one in Missouri is. Stem cell research is not illegal in Missouri, Amendment 2 would put human cloning in the Missouri Constitution.
As for what Limbaugh says, he has a point, I mean Fox can film around his disease for his role on Boston Legal (and previously on Spin City), but he'll go on camera with the symptoms of his unfortunate disease for a misleading ad? What does that say about his character?
And really, wishing someone who exercises our freedom of speech, how juvenile is that? It's also bad karma.

I would never wish such things on anyone. Rush Limbaugh is earning a lot of money misguiding a lot of people. How does he know that stem cell research will not help anyone with Parkinsons?
I think attacking MJ Fox is a new low for him. How does his base keep listening? He is taking advantage of the "lazy, stupid" ones.

Wishing horrible things on others has a way of coming back to bite you in the A**.
I would not wish those diseases on anyone. I am very sorry for Micheal J Fox, I have watched family die of this disease. I am for stem cell research. However, Rush L has every right to his opinion, just like the rest of us, no matter how deplorable.

I wish worse on him. Anyone here who says you've got your facts right can check out the ad, and Rush's history of insults and lies. He's a pig who should be stuffed. The man, a term I use lightly, constantly badmouths anyone he disagrees with, then hides from any real debate or confrontation with these people. At least O'Rielly, whom I hate, has the nerve to go on other people's shows and try to promote his agenda. Fat ****** Rush, however, stays in his climate-controlled little (or is is big, big enough for him to fit his overstuffed **** into) studio and dispenses insults. He's made a career of it, and would have his sorry gargantuan expanse of an a** whipped by any of the people he cuts up, given the chance.
Screw him.
