Did her have sufficient proof to back up his claim, if he did that's fine. But are radio personalities supposed to this cold and heartless? I wouldn't even mind a joker like Stern mocking him, but saying it was all a hoax is just wrong.

Rush is like a person who lies, then has to keep on lying to cover up all the previous lies.
He just got himself out on a limb now.
It's hilarious to watch that kind of sh!t happen to smug, self-righteous a$$holes like him.
He's just as big a fathead as Michael Moore.
I can't stand those fanatics.
We should put those two in a boxing ring until they finish one another off.

Rush Limbaugh's comment about our dear M.J. Fox is so disgusting. Hes' been so doped up that he can't think clearly. Apparently he was thinking of Oxy-cotin, but instead he said Fox is acting. Stupid GOP Closet Conservative Rat!. He should start helping to find Preventions and Cures for diseases instead of opening up his big mouth criticising others. One day, he, a love one, or a friend may be faced with the same situation,or even worse, Think about that Rush!
This disease affects thousands of people around the world, including other deadly diseases. Why not use the available scienctific information and techniques of stem-cell science.
We are spending $billions on Unnecessary Wars, WOMD, Space Programs etc, its' time we put our priorities in Humananities, Caring, Sharing, Education and helping to solve the sustainance of life on earth. We are too selfish and self-destructive. Its' time we shut up! and put our money to build a Selfless Nation who consider all things. Don't forget that we are not perfect, only GOD is. Check yourself!

Rush had nothing, as usual. According to Fox he was on his meds but they can actually sometimes exacerbate the symptoms. There is no difference between what Ann Coulter said about the 9/11 widows reviling in their new fame and what Limbaugh said about Fox. Go to the CBS news web site and watch the extended interview with Fox. You start to get an idea what he has to deal with every day of his life and it also demonstrates how truly disgusting Limbaugh's comments were.

Rush Limbaugh did not accuse Michael J. Fox of "faking a disease". Fox's disease has been medically documented, and is not refutable. Did Michael Fox discontinue his medication to publicly exacerbate his mental and physical condition to sway the public to accept stem cell research? Yes!
Would I "push" the legalization of stem cell research if it would save my life, the life of one of my children, grandchildren, or great grandchildren? You bet I would! Would I stop taking my medication, or the medication of my children, grandchildren, or great grandchildren to show the world what is happening to our bodies? I might.
Michael J. Fox is fighting for his life, and has every right to do so. Rush Limbaugh is a commentator, just as Walter Cronkite and other news commentators, entitled to his "take" and "opinion" on world events, whether political or medical.

I am not familiar with this but Rush Limbaugh was bold to do that he has never and probably never will have a disease like MS. He needs to respect Michael J. Fox for being who he is and championing the fight for stem cell research.

Well for starters you are incorrect because he didn't accuse him of faking a disease. He said either he was exggerating his symptoms or he was off his med's. He said later he learned that MJF often went off his med's when speaking in public so the public could see the effects of the disease.
His basic complaint was that MJF was exploiting the disease to promote a political canidate and that what MJF was saying in the political ad was misleadingly false.
Which is true the poltical ad was misleadingly false. I think the focus has been shifted from the criticism of the ad to sympathy for the very real conditions under which MJF suffers. Which has nothing to do with the falseness of the ad itself.

Because if Michael J. Fox wasn't acting or off his meds, then people might start to agree with him regarding stem cell research. Michael J. Fox is so well liked that seeing him suffer might influence the public's opinion regarding this issue and Rush Limbaugh cannot handle that he might be wrong.

Rush Limbaugh is an egotistical, self centered, know it all. If anyone remotely proposes something against the current conservative agenda, he makes them out to be immoral, stupid, or ill informed. M.J. Fox is for stem cell research with is sometimes done from cells of aborted fetuses. Conservatives and Christians are against abortion and so they do not want anything that might encourage more abortions like the use of tissues from abortions. He felt that M.J. Fox was shaking to cause people to feel sorry for him and listen to his messages and adds for candidates that are for stem cell research. Most of those candidates happen to be liberal which Rush is against.

Exaggerating , was the complaint. Fox was one in a line of many used by the liberals to sway peoples opinions about a controversial subject. The liberals are not discriminating, they will use anyone, then drop them.

""he's exaggerating the end results of the ailment," Limbaugh informed listeners. "he's transferring all round and shaking and that is in basic terms an act. . . . it really is amazingly shameless of Michael J. Fox. both he did not take his drugs or he's appearing." -- The Washington submit" Rush grew to change into out to be correct. because it grew to change into out, MJF purposely didnt take his drugs till now his visual charm to the congressional committee in basic terms so his tremors were seen..
