Right back at you MadIvan.. what is stupid is that you are entering your conservative ideology into this conversation.
First off let's set each other straight. I am conservative and I don't believe that charity should come from the Government. So now that we are in agreement that we are on the same side of this issue since I don't think the feds need to be funding embryonic stem cell research can be please get back to focusing on your orginal point.
Now that you can't attack me anymore and avoid addressing my point here we go.....
First you are merely talking about what is and what is not approriate for Michael J Fox to say considering he has Parkinsons. I think you have not addressed why it's bad other than you disagree with him. Just because you disagree with him doesn't make him using his disease in "poor taste".
Actually Bush with his faith based initatives are doing exactly that. So you just retorted yourself.
And now with you mentioning your are irrated you have proven my point. You disagree with his opinions on the way government should be run. So instead of just saying that you restored to name calling and saying he was acting in "poor taste". Which I merely pointed out that he had every right to do what he was doing and that didn't make it in poor taste.
The "faith based" initiatives are an attempt to shed government responsibility, not increase it - Fox is trying to increase government responsibility for funding a particular research he likes.
See the difference - one idea is trying to decrease government responsibility - what Fox wants is to increase it.
You then pompously proclaim your conservatism by harping on about how Fox is beyond question. What intellectual contortions you achieve in order to arrive at your position is beyond me - it seems worthy of DU. I suggest you are a troll, and will be booted as such.
