Wow, you are as bad as the kool aid drinking libs and media. Rush was moving, alot slower in the actual footage, and he was trying to act out how Fox was acting in the political ad, as illustration. He was not doing it to make fun of him.
First, if you think Rush is capable of making fun of people's diseases, then you are a ditz who doesn't even listen.
Secondly, Fox doesn't even consider it an insult.
I wouldn't jump to conclusions, as that's the Olbermann graphics below him.
So did MSNBC speed up the clip intentionally to make it look even worse?
Ya, but I sped it up even more to make Rush get down and get groovy.
Actually, you are a troll and anyone who goes back and checks your posts can determine for themselves.
So, now that we know who constructed this .gif the way it is seen, any apologies in order?
Even if Rush hated parkinson's patients as you imply, knowing that the MSM watches his every move he's much smarter than that to actually go on his cam and make fun of them.
You're one sick puppy!
You are a good democrat shill. That is precisely the party line.
He was demonstrating the Fox appearance. He said over and over he was not demeaning.
You have precisely the mind thar Democrats want to target. They depend on people like you to stand up for flacks like Michael Fox who are making political points by appeating needy. They set themselves up as being untouchable because they knoew that people like you will not understand the political process in the message.
Rush has said never again. We will not allow you to lie to sick people to garner votes of sympathy. Rush might, but probably will not, lose this battle but he has put the Rats on notice......never again. You have used the tactic the last time.
I find the liberals use of the disabled to be horrifying. Even worse, their willingness to abort and discard those who are deemed disabled in utero, is disgusting.
I heard the show and I heard the media's description of the show. The truth of the matter is not to be heard anywhere in the mainstream media.....that much is certain.
I suggest YOU stop being a jerk and retract your unfounded statement.
He has said that he was trying to describe what He was seeing as he watched Mr. Fox. I've actually done a little radio in my time and I used to laugh at myself for gesturing, and then I would worry if I had relied too much on my gestures and not let my words paint the picture.
Consider a minute: Do you think Rush would do something as reprehensible as "mock the afflicted" right out there where anyone could see? Even if we stipulate, for the sake of argument, that he is a cynical and evil man, we have to grant a certain native cunning. SO it is hard to think he would do something at once so stupid and so vicious.
But, on the other hand, the MSM have already shown themselves all too eager to believe on the flimsiest evidence the worst of those down upon whom they look. SO it's not surprising that they would characterize this as mockery. It is surprising that you would -- that anyone would -- trust their judgement.
You don't get it either --- Rush was not ridiculing anyone. And btw---the handicapped do not need to be defended..they are perfectly capable of defending themselves. If fox wants to get into the fray and be exploited by the dems he can..but he is untouchable...he can take his lumps.
I'm sick of dems exploiting illness for their own sick schemes.
No, that's not it. You're a ... what you said, because you are eager not only to believe but to spread lies about those whose opinions you find distasteful.
Listen. We all know the MSM are gullible when it comes to the virtues of those they like and the vices of those they don't like. If you believe, without examination, an outrageous and implausible charge made by them against Rush, you are not using your head.
It turned out that Fox himself said that he would sometimes skip his meds when he had to make an appeal, and he, Fox, said in this instance he took too much medicine. I think you got this one wrong.
He SAID that he EITHER had not taken his meds OR was acting.
Let's not nit pick.
limbaugh was clearly mocking fox. I heard it live, you probably did too. Anyone who doesn't accept this fact is in denial. His comments were out of line and offensive to anyone who has a family member who suffers from a nervous system disorder.
Two family members with neuro problems (including Parkinson's), so that liberal plea for the domination of sympathy and guilt over reason will not work with me. (when I die their going to name a neurological wing after my family, I bet -- we will have paid for it anyway.) Neither will the allegation that anyone who disagrees with you has a psychoneurotic problem with denial. If that's all you have, you don't have a thing. Don't bug me again until you have an argument involving evidence and reason.
I wouldn't disagree with that hypothetoical implication, except I would use the verb tense that implies "hypothesis contrary to fact", ie. "If he WERE using that as ridicule, then he WOULD BE a jerk.
But he wasn't so he isn't, at least not on that account.
Think again. He's got to know that decent people would find mocking Fox and his affliction really bad stuff. Even if all that motivated him were self-interest, he wouldn't have intentionally let himself be video-ed while engaged in such mockery.
