A typical commercial like that takes hours and hours to film. Perhaps that was him at his 'worst' of all the different takes. One thing is certain. The Docs who treat Parkinson's don't think of the available medicine as a silver bullet, as a permanent solution so to speak.

i cant tell from your post if you are agreeing with me or not.

The "Ford Ad" was a setup, they used the Whitey because they then knew they could start yelling "racism" even if there were only one retarded skin head drunk in the whole country that complained about it, they were looking for "sympathy" they wanted a few "red necks" to start the "race issue" the democrats LOVE to play the "race card" then they twist and spin it to make themselves look like Loving Fair Compassionate Politically Correct HEROS.

They are also playing this "Sympathy *****" with Michael Fox, the bastards are Using Him.

If were a Black Man I would stay as far away from a Liberal Do-Gooder as I could, they are trouble.

It's admirable the way the righties are defending the right to attack the disabled and 9/11 widows. The sad part is that the righties are so lacking in decency at this point, they fail to even identify the over-the-top type of attacks by Coulter and Limbaugh. It's perfectly okay to criticize these people, but it has to be done with a little sensitivity for they represent a group of people that is in real pain.

If Fox is lying in his deceptive ads and if he admits to manipulating his medication in order to manipulate public opinion why shouldn't he be questioned? What exactly is over the top about whether Fox is doing the same thing he claims to have done in the past?

More accuratly this is an example of Coulters contention that liberials try to get spokes persons who are designated victims and hence above criticism to demoagogue and avoid honest debate on the issue at hand.

Excellent example patsfan. What Steele has been subjected to in Maryland over the last 5 or 6 years is unconscienable. Had Steele been a Dem, the MSM would be all over it. Instead, he gets Oreo cookies thrown at him during a debate, and no one ever talked about it. I found that amazing.

I only bring up Limbaughs questioning MJF taking his meds because he admitted, MJF did, to not taking them when he testified to congress a few years ago. So there was precedent to question. Of course, the MSM didn't talk about that now did they? Nope.

Why isn't it ok to criticize those who enter the political fray? If Joe Blow is going to support a candidate, then he opens himself up to criticism. Since when is anyone devoid of accountability? When the wives criticize a politician and support another, they're fair game. I think it's a despicable ploy to exploit the suffering for political gain. Of course, we wouldn't expect anything moral from a person and party who admit to hoping children are molested to advance their political chances.

Again, you're a fraud.

The democrats used Fox, they knew that if he went on camera twitching and shaking somebody would have something to say then the democrats could in turn attack the critics as being 'insensitive', this was all a "Neo Lib Set Up".

Why didn't Michael Fox make this ad on Washingtons birthday.

The democrats aren't worried about Fox's illness, they want to slobber and whail about how cruel the republicans are.
Bastards.

Michael, "you've been had by the dingobats"

Of course, at this point the Rush Limbaugh right is doing what they always do and back whackos like Limbaugh and Coulter without any regard for the truth of the issue or the lies that these liars perpetuate on a daily basis.

Case in point: it is the medication itself that manifests itself in the uncontrollable twitches, not the lack of meds.

So, Rush and company....do what you do best. Abuse your 'scrips and pretend like you know wtf you are talking about. Your ratings are falling and the reality based world is seeing you for the deceptive scum you are.
