Michael J Fox "Stem-cell" ad
Political Commercial | 10/15/2004 | mykroar

Posted on 10/16/2004 9:10:04 PM PDT by mykroar

Just saw the new ad from Michael J. Fox about stem-call research and how he's voting for Kerry because Bush "is limiting funds."

I may have to turn off my TV for the next 3 weeks - I think I'm gonna be on demon-rat overload.

The Kerry campaign had a flat tire when Christopher Reeve died, so they pulled to the shoulder, popped the trunk and pulled out the spare dough-nut, Michael J. Fox. If that sounds cruel, I'm sorry, but I think it's the truth. Kerry and the libs don't care about Fox any more than they did Reeve. They're just using them and exploiting their illnesses.

No, that wasn't cruel. It was just the truth. I think you are exactly right.

Its a fact that MJF abused drugs as a teenager and young adult. This story may shed some additional light.

Maybe these hollywood people should stand up for other diseases before one of them is afflicted. It's almost like they don't recognize anything unless it hits them then they are all over the media. Well, I've got news for them...there are millions of regular people out there suffering with any number of diseases so what makes a hollywierd person more credible to ask for funding? NOTHING.

If John Edwards says Kerry is so great and will bring people up out of wheelcharis then good Lord...how come he hasn't done anything to stop the flu????????? If he has that power he should use it now and not wait cause he's gonna lose.

When they lose the election, both of these guys should apply to the circus cause they are more than qualified to be clowns.

I wish some advocate of this "research" would state what basis there is for believing that embryonic stem cells are better than other types which, even if moral concerns were not a factor, would still be easier to get.

I'd also like them to say what they would plan to do if their research proved successful. IMHO, the answers here would likely turn a lot of people off of embryonic stem-cell research.

Methinks the real goal of embryonic-stem-cell research advocates is to find a way to justify cloning and abortion. I would like for some advocates of the research to offer me some other justification for it, but that's the only one I can see that makes sense.

I was gonna vote for Specter out of concern for the GOP majority, but I won't now. He is undermining the President with these ads. Makes me furious. I have a colleague who used to work for him and I have given her hell over this.

Has that ever stopped a liberal from voting?

To the point, I assume he must have citizenship now. I know he stated that "He will vote for Kerry," but then again it may just be postering for the libs.

They probably assume people don't know that.

Elvis is in everybody out there.
Everybody's got Elvis in them.
Everybody except one person that is,
Yeah, one person!
The evil opposite of Elvis,
The Anti-Elvis!
Anti-Elvis got no Elvis in him,
lemme tell ya.

Michael J. Fox has no Elvis in him.

LOL!!!!! Where is Mojo Nixon when we need him???

John Kerry REALLY has no Elvis in him. I did an analysis in 2000 and found that the candidate with the most Elvis has won every election since 1956. I predicted the "Elvis Factor" would elect George W. Bush. And it will do so again!!!!

Actually we all in for political overload because it is a struggle that will make 2004 seem like 911 politically. 2000 was just like a setting stage but we have a President who is steadfast and like a previous president won for the good of the whole in the end.

Just my thoughts,
Brad

That's low. A trendy disease? The guy has Parkinson's. If you can't undertand why he's doing what he's doing, than you're missing a part of your heart. You may not agre with him, and that's fine, but to mock him is outrageous.

I wonder if MJF has tried the gin and white raisins?

Alex P. Keaton, how could you?

I like Fox, but his politics is disappointing.

Pffft. My dad has Parkinson's, too, but he doesn't think that makes him some kind of expert/spokesman on the federal budget. When something like this happens to a vain Hollywood type, they think they're he first ones to ever experience it, and the only ones qualified to comment on it.

Other examples include Magic Johnson & the late Christopher Reeve. When did any of these guys ever worry about these medical problems before they had them? I can respect Jerry Lewis raising money for muscular dystrophy or Sharon Stone doing so for AIDS because to my knowledge they aren't doing it out of self-absorption.
