Freaking Rush

Oct 27, 2006 17:06

Is anyone else just totally sickened by Rush Limbaugh's claim that Michael J. Fox was "acting" and "off his (Parkinson's) medication" in his recent ad to support stem cell research? I got so mad I had to go outside and throw things. I just don't get it. How can conservative little (ha) Rush go on an oxycotin bender and pull a "poor me" and then ( Read more... )

Limbaugh's claims were outrageous as, in fact, he often is and as I think he actively attempts to be. I think he overstepped the line he thought even his own fans would consider acceptable considering he apologized later in the broadcast. I wish I knew if his apology was sparked be people who were just generally upset by the claim (because it was heinous) or by people pointing out that he can't say much about drug use these days. Much of his early career was spent claiming that drug offenders should be given automatic life sentences, when he got zero time he lost a LOT of credibility.

eh, it's bc human beings like rush and myself forget that life is about perspective and say ignorant/hurtful things.

if i were to speak ill of Michael J. Fox i would have to speak ill upon myself, for you see I have modeled my entire life off of the Marty McFly character from the Back to the Future series. Erego if anyone calls me a chicken, I have the amazing ability to beat them in a fight. Also, yes I am sure I lost perspective and said ignorant/hurtful things.
