Chris Christie is headed to primetime, the New Jersey Governor will appear on Michael J. Fox’s scripted comedy this fall.

NBC confirmed the politician’s appearance but wouldn’t comment on what role he’ll play.

“The Michael J. Fox Show" premieres September 26 and follows the life of news achor Mike Henry, played by Fox.

His character on the show, like Fox, suffers from Parkinson’s disease.

Though he made a name for himself playing conservative, Reagan-loving Alex P. Keaton on “Family Ties,” in real life the actor leans to the left.

You mean that his appearances with Obama weren't "scripted"?

LEANS? if he leaned any further he would be laying down! And what’s with Christie? Does he ever associate with actual Conservatives anymore?

The cost of medication under Obamacare is bringing Fox out of retirement, I see.

I dislike Fox almost as much as Christie. So there doesn’t seem to be much of a future for this “show” in my house.

This, IIRC, is the same Canadian Michael J. Fox, who campaigned against Republicans in key races where Prenatal Stem Cell Research was a discussion topic of the day.

After the Republicans lost, he bragged to others that he INTENTIONALLY did not take his medications so that he would shake and falter more than normally —— all so that they could take stem cells from dead fetuses ripped from their mothers wombs by Planned Parenthood.

Since those oh-so-heady days of yore for him, nothing substantively significant EVER came from prenatal stem cell research. In fact, the opposite, for adult stem cells.

He should rot in hell. I hope they quit making his pills. Sick ass excuse for a human being.

Does this mean that his governing should be termed ‘unscripted comedy’?
