Geee, I read the article and just can't figure-out what the guy's political philosophy is......
Ya' think he's a lie - beral??
Isn't Max Mccleland the one that fell on his own granade?
Michael J. Fox chose to enter the political arena to make misleading statements intended to damage a Republican candidate. Limbaugh responded appropriately. He did not make fun of Fox. Limbaugh said that he had seen Fox in a recent acting role in which the Parkinson's was not evident. It was completely appropriate for Limbaugh to wonder whether or not Fox's performance represented acting or genuine disability. This may be news to Democrats, but Fox is a professional actor. It is not character assassination for Rush to suggest that Fox might have been acting.
According to the left, Republicans can't respond to criticism from Cindy Sheehan because her son died, can't respond to criticism from the Jersey Girls because their husbands died, and can't respond to criticism from Michael Fox because he has Parkinson's. Of course, Limbaugh won't play by such asinine rules.
I have yet to hear one Democrat acknowledge that embryonic stem cell research has not been banned by the federal government, that private funding of such research is still permitted, but that such research has to date failed to live up to its initial promise, while adult stem cell research has been highly successful. As usual, the Dems refuse to acknowledge basic facts, while they slander their opponents with fictions.
Yes, Cleland who has been in combat was in a social situation, getting off a helicopter to share beers with some other soldiers when his grenade fell off and it also armed itself.
"Although few of them ever served in the military themselves"
Also I believe Rush has a higher number of veterans tuned in than just about any other media program, or mainstream publication has readers.
The writer is an idiot.
We only seem so very clever to them because they are so frigging stupid!
In reality, it's just common sense!
This post just gives ME the SHAKES...BBbrrrrr.
That ?rush limbo? is ssooo cold hearted!...

Amendment 2 is not lying but its representative ads are.

How is he lying? Give example
Sheesh, think McFly think!
VERY nicely done, unspun.
Many of my in-laws are libs. My only problem with them is their condescending attitude. They claim we (conservatives) see things in black and white because we're still in our "high school" stage emotionally (though we're in our 40s) and that we'll someday grow up to be "nuanced" like them.
What Rush SAID was right.....the problem is these people don't folow what he SAID
I guess the writer "forgot" about the left insinuating that George Bush Sr. bailed out of his plane over cowardice, or that he attacked civilians. He must have also forgotten about the left insinuating that Bob Dole was hamming up his war injurines for sympathy.
Max Clelland accidentally dropped the damned grenade and it went off. It was Clellands grenade. It was not during battle. Note: This is not criticism of Clelland. He was another casualty of war but it was not on the battle field and Max Clelland never said it was to his credit. I take issue with the author making up facts out of thin air. The author is either mistaken or lying. Take your pick. I pick the latter.
President Bush announced, on August 9, 2001 that federal funds, for the first time, would be made available for hESC research on currently existing stem cell lines; however, the Bush administration chose not to permit research on hESC cell lines not currently in existence, thus limiting federal funding to research in which "the life-and-death decision has already been made"[29]. The Bush Administration's guidelines differ from the Clinton Administration guidelines which did not distinguish between currently existing and not-yet-existing hESC. Both the Bush and Clinton guidelines agree that the federal government should not fund hESC research that directly destroys embryos.(bolding is mine)Neither Congress nor any administration has ever prohibited private funding of embryonic research. Also, public and private funding of adult stem cell research has no restriction whatsoever.
Uh, Dave, Limbaugh is deaf.
I'm sure Rush would eagerly love to be able to swig a little snake oil to be able to genuinely hear again.
Spinning Stem Cells A damning reporting pattern.
By Wesley J. Smith
Yet as loudly as Fox and Kinsley promote ESCR in the media or before legislative committees, both have remained strangely silent about the most remarkable Parkinson's stem-cell experiment yet attempted: one in which researchers treated Parkinson's with the patient's own adult stem cells.
Fox can hardly claim ignorance about ASC research.
< So Michael J. Fox is only the latest to be the target of the cruel attacks that have nothing to do with the issues, but everything to do with planting seeds of doubt >>
Ping ping ping ping ping... Dweezle gets it!
