THANKS RUSH!! Just keep talking til election day!!

Numerous Doctors who specialize in Parkinsons Disease have come forward and said that tremors in those diagnosed with PD is actually a sign of the medication working. Rush, although he should be an expert when it comes to medication from oxycontin to viagra, once again proves that he doesn't know $hit!

Apparently this is doing SERIOUS damage, given that Rush has characterized Fox's commercial as part of a liberal plot. Apparently Rush didn't know that Fox has stumped for REPUBLICANS who support stem cell research in previous election cycles. And apparently Rush's lack of empathy, crossing as it has done into the realm of cruelty, has pissed off a lot of people because his studio cam actually caught him cruelly mimicking Fox's movement difficulties.

I heard Sam Seder saying he saw it when he appeared on Keith Olberman's show last night.

I posted Rush's studio cam on the other Rush/Michael J. Fox thread.

Here it is again.

I saw a brief clip of it last night and I was apalled. I thought most people moved past mocking, playground-bully behavior like that by the age of 12.

Here is quite a good summary of why Limbaugh is talking through his ass.

A new study of Michael J. Fox’s stem cell ad shows “support for stem cell research increased from 78% prior to viewing the ad, to 83% after viewing the ad. Support among Democrats increased from 89% to 93%, support among Republicans increased from 66% to 68% and support among Independents increased from 80% to 87% after viewing the ad.”

Dakin is one annoying ****tard.

It is the classic idiot's statement to say "supports stem cell research" when the accurate statement is so easy: "supports government funding of stem cell research."

But, since when were dems and their supporters aware of facts and sincerity. They would rather play a blatantly FALSE ad, and get their minions to do their bidding and chat up their falsehoods on the internet.

No scientist and no DR. supports the claims in the Fox ad. He really is shameless in his promotion of the liberals.

Oh really Dakin? Care to back that up? No? Thought so? Do you know ANYTHING about Parkinson's Disease? Do you know anything about what the medication does? your ignorance is really shining today! I guess if it doesn;t come from Newsmax, Fox, or the NY Post than its all a lie. Do you post this stuff with a straight face? I'm still trying to swallow the BS you fed me last night about your friends in the Arts and theatre world.

[Dakin]

Posted: 10/27/06 at 12:36pm

You can't imgaine anyone in the arts being truly conservative?

[romantico]

Posted: 10/27/06 at 12:41pm

No, they can be conservative. Its just you don't find that many.Even the ones who are seem to be more moderate/conservatives. You are just way to extreme. You love to argue but not to listen. You love to brag and gloat about how right you are but you don;t respect anyone else's view on things. You are allowed to say whatever you want but if someone counters what you say you insult and get mean, not just nasty. When a team of people disagree with you, you cry about free speech and how the liberals want to shut you up.

I find it very difficult to believe there is a group of Dakins in the theatre world/arts.

The people on this board don't want a discussion. They spew hatred and liberal dogma. They are deranged haters.

If you really want to discuss something, PM me.

Posted: 10/27/06 at 12:56pm

Um, then why post here? Wouldn't you be happier on a board where the majority shares your politcal views? This is why i don;t post at Freerepublic or Godhatesfags. I don;t agree with them and they won't agree with me. Sad thing is Dakin, if you really are interested in Broadway related subjects you should post about those things. You probably are a decent guy, but stirring the politcal pot here isn't doping anyone good.

Hell, if people got to know you and see you as someone other than your politics maybe your views may be looked at differently. Just a thought.

Great cartoon, thought I'd share!
