Ultra-conservative douche bag -- oops, I mean "commentator" -- Rush Limbaugh has reached a new low by attacking someone with Parkinson's Disease. On a recent broadcast, he lambasted actor Michael J. Fox for his appearance in recent political campaign ads in which he supported Democranky Senate candidate Claire McCaskill and her pro-stem cell research stand. In the ads, Fox is clearly in the throes of the disease' effects, which Limbaugh brayed was an indication that the actor was either off his meds or acting. Limbaugh apologized for his comments later in the show, having either suddenly realized that he has no medical training or else his Oxycontin must have kicked in.
(If you haven't seen the ads, it's pretty heartbreaking to watch Fox. You can check it out on YouTube. If this is the sort of thing stem cell research can prevent in the future, White House Resident Bush and the rest of the Pro-Life-Medieval-Leech-Treatment-Luddite morons have their chromosomes plugged in backwards -- but then, we knew that already...)
