Bush has “some meetings with senior advisers and a Rush Limbaugh interview,” Snow said in an email. “No blockbusters.”Yeah, looks like the White House is all broken up about Biff’s sociopathic screed against Michael J. Fox. He really stepped out of line, going after a Parkinson’s patient—such a giant misstep, he’s now got an exclusive with the big dog.
Carpetbagger: “Consider the broader context for a moment. Limbaugh generated national revulsion with his attack on Fox. Instead of apologizing, Limbaugh told his listeners, ‘I stand by what I said. I take back none of what I said.’ Decency demanded that he be shunned from polite society. Honestly, what kind of person attacks a man with a terrible disease, falsely accuses the man of faking symptoms, issues a bogus apology, and then goes right back to attacking the victim again? Apparently, it's the kind of man who gets one-on-one chats with George W. Bush.”
In a sane administration, the president would be meeting with Michael J. Fox and reconsidering his position on funding stem cell research. In this administration, however, the man who attacked him in the most juvenile and outlandish manner imaginable is being rewarded for his insolence.
