rush limbaugh on michael j fox....

[rnch]

quoting from william saletan's daily newspaper collumn in today's Times-Picayune:

limbaugh desbcribes fox as "....exaggerating the effects of his disease. he is moving all around and shaking. and it's purely an act. this is the only time i (limbaugh) have seen michael j fox portray any of the symptoms of the disease he has......this is really shameless of michael j fox. either he didn't takes his medication or he's acting, one of the two".

atta boy, rush....tell it as YOU see it.......not as it really is.

talk about being off his meds....oh, wait....rush's "meds" weren't entirely legal, were they? perhaps this is why rush's version of "reality" is kinda shaky???


and people LISTEN to this idiot every day?????

 

[Gambino]

funny how peeps decry extremists like rush but never say the same thing about their own extremists(maher, sheehan, etc)

 

[PICK3]

Making fun of someone afflicted with that disease = bad bro material.

Scratch that ... = asshole material.

 

[EnderJE]

Well, let's see how many neocons bitch about Rush. It should be about the same amount of libs bitch about Sheehan.

 

[Gambino]

Making fun of someone afflicted with that disease = bad bro material.

do you honestly think he was making fun of fox?
you people are too sensitive, he was calling a spade a spade
if the republicans were doing the same thing the dem call out would be okay
"freedom fighting"
but when the rep's call dems out, it is mean spirited
lame

 

[PICK3]

do you honestly think he was making fun of fox?

Ummmmmm ... yes

 

[biteme]

Rush Limbaugh is one of the biggest fucking pricks I've ever encountered and so is his group of loyal sheep.

Rnch, Agreed. He has a f*&^ sense of humor that his 10 million listeners hear each day.. He makes 30 million a year talking BS.

When they showed the clip from the internet feed, he was twitching around, mocking him. Rush is a piece of shit. Sheehan and Maher (fuck I hate Maher) are pieces of shit too.

That is just terrible of him....how and why would he benefit from faking it? Shame on him!!! Bad man!! Never cared for him to begin with.

Rnch was calling Limgaugh as he saw it, a dipshit.

I believe this was beyond party lines.

Well sheehan is a tool and I may agree with rush's political views on things (conservative) but he really is a tool. I can't stand to listen to him not because of the viewpoint he takes, but you have to listen to 55 minutes of his drivel to get to the frigin point. I don't agree with fox on his stance on the issue but I don't think he was faking it.

 

[pitbullrocco]

despite the thread topic, rush has the ability to make good points, if only at times.

his opinion of MJF, however, is nothing more than an attempt to bring attention his way. looks like its working.

 

[cmdubs]

Limbaugh is fucking scum

 

[redguru]

Ummm, this has been done to death, But MJ Fox already admitted to Katie Couric he was overmedicated causing his accentuated movements in the McCaskill ad. Limbaugh is a tactless asshole but he's essentially correct in that the state Fox was in was exaggerated. Fox also told Stephanopolous that he hasn't even read the Amendment on the ballot in Missouri he was touting in that ad.

So Rush = tactless asshole.
MJ Fox = Partisan shill.

 

[Trojan Horse]

Considering Rush's background scandal with meds, he shouldn't comment on anybody taking or not taking meds. Fucking Hippocrite should shut his fucking mouth or at least think before he speaks.

more saletan on libaugh:

"last year, limbaugh, who used a tailbone defect to get out of the vietnam war draft, accused a deomocratic candidate of having served in iraq "to pad the resume." he charged veterans-including former senator max cleland, d-ga., who lost his legs and an arm in vietnam-with trying "to hide their liberalism behind a military uniform...pretending to be something that they are not." when war is just a television show, a uniform is just a costume.

which brings us back to stem cells. linbaugh says fox's ads dangle a prospect of imminent cures "that is not reality". limbaugh dismisses this as a "script" being followed by fox's "pr people" and "the entertainment media."




i CANNOT believe ANYONE can take this pill popping, name calling windbag seriously. yet people hang onto every word this asshole utters.

I don't like it when people assume you can't be in the military and be a liberal. Ehud Barak proudly calls himself a liberal and he was a captain in the Israeli military equivalent of Delta force.

 

[justinjones1963]

I am not a big rush fan but that bill they are trying to approve is wrong on a ton of fronts. I am pro-stem cell research and pro-abortion too. Heck, Fox admitted he didn't even read the darn bill either!

Also, I don't think it is bad to rip on the disabled...an idiot is an idiot no matter if they are in a wheel chair or not. I do feel for Fox though and I want to kick the people in the head that want to ban stem cell research for bogus reasons. People with that mentality burned people at the stake for being witches 200 years ago.

Now if we could round up all the idiots in DC and burn them at the stake this country would be much better off.

Do you know how Cleland lost his limbs? He was climbing on to a helicopter when a grenade fell off his own web gear. He then dove on his own grenade. His injuries were his own fault. So don't prop him up as some Vietnam War hero.

so he dove onto a live grenade to protect his fellow troops?

no, no props are called for for this war hero.........

 

[redguru]

He's a tool that didn't secure his own grenade. A fuck-up. A altruistic fuck-up, but still a fuck-up.

I don't see why that matters. Arguably alot of deaths in the military are due to screwups and not being aware enough on the part of the soldiers who die.

or is this what linbaugh sez??

The media in GA propped him up as a battlefield wounded soldier when he was running for the Senate. The nearest enemy combatants were over 40 miles from him. Now he's a hack, shilling his injuries as if he is some kind of authority on warfare.

No one else was missing grenades when the incident occurred. It's well documented, look it up.

Bro, mistakes happen and he did everything he could to make sure his mistake didn't affect anyone else. It's as noble as anything I can imagine.

Kerry's whole "rescue" deal was funny.

No, the man is slime, used car salesman slime. Zell Miller is a Democrat and I was honored to meet him. This was before 9-11, btw.

Joe Lieberman is another Democrat Senator I respect, If the Ticket were reversed in 2000, I would have voted Democrat.

lol

That's not my recollection. How can he being OVERmedicated cause more of the symptoms of his disease to appear? The only thing MJF has admitted to is that he DID NOT take his medication before testifying a few years back in order so that the people he was asking for MONEY (nothing to do with election politics) would see the real affects of his disease.

As you already succinctly stated, he was OVERmedicated in his campaign spots. That does not cause OVERstimulation of his symptoms.

Let's not even mention your shameless attribution of partisan shill to a good man. How is it that one can be a partisan shill when he supports members of both parties as long as they support the one cause he cares about? There a new definition of partisan in Webster's I'm unaware of?

Fox is a good guy who believes passionately in a cause that affects him and many others. Shame on you and dildos like Rush Limbaugh for trying to belittle him in the name of partisan politics and then having the gall to accuse him of that same offense.

KC: When you go from side to side… and that’s actually caused by the medication?

MF: That’s caused by the medication. What happens is when you I'm 15 years out from diagnosis, one of the problems with medication, one of the reasons they are looking for cures particularly for Parkinson’s is that the medication only has an efficacy that lasts so long and then at a certain point it ceases to, or it works with horrible side effects, which is the dyskinesia that you see. But on any given day, I can’t design where I'm going to be at any given time. You just take the medication and hope for the best. If it’s humid that day, if you get stressed that day, if you eat the wrong thing, if you have too much protein, it doesn't kick in. It’s just part of living with this. It’s funny the notion that you could calculate it for effect. People with Parkinson’s out there, we're just kind of go...would that we could.

KC: In fact, Rush Limbaugh suggested you had failed to take your medication intentionally so when you did that ad you’d be more symptomatic and therefore, more sympathetic.

MF: The irony of it is, I was too medicated …The thing about being symptomatic is it’s not comfortable. Nobody wants to be symptomatic. It’s like you want to hit yourself with a hammer, you know, you want at all times to be as comfortable as you can be. And at this point now, if I didn’t take medication I wouldn't be able to speak. I’d have a mask face and I wouldn’t be able to speak and I'd lock up and freeze and not be able to move. So there's no time I'm not medicated. It’s just a matter of titrating the medication to make sure it works as best it can. It’s constant throughout the day.. I’m saying, well, I'm going to do something at 2 o'clock so from about ten o’clock on it’s all towards getting to where I need to be at 2. It’s the kind of stuff that people with Parkinson’s live with everyday.

 

[redguru]

You've met?

Yes, I have met him and Zell Miller on different occasions. He toured Naval Sub Base Kings Bay when it had just opened on numerous occasions. They'd fly into Cecil and Jax and then take ground transport up.

I didn't say he was faking it, Rush did. Don't put words into my mouth. I said the swaying was caused by his over-medication, as MJ Fox said. I also stated he didn't even read the Amendment proposed to the Missouri Constitution, as he stated in his meeting with Stephanopolous on ABC this week. Or do you want me to dig that transcript up to0? (I already have in another thread a week older on this same topic).
