"...80, and swallowing 25 pills a day for his sagging health..."
Bad omen... I wonder how many years that's been going on?
Whether you agree with Lewis or not it is in bad form to be critical of his efforts. I understand the concerns of these disabled people that are protesting, but they are flat out wrong to go on the attack. If they don't like what is going on with the Lewis telethon I suggest they get their own spokesperson and start a celebrate disabilities telethon to promote how great they are so we don't have to feel pity for them.
