His main argument, and what he spent the bulk of time talking about, was that the content of Fox's commercial was inaccurate and actually quite despicable. I saw that bit posted a couple of days ago. I don't know if it was Limbaugh's version or not. I almost commented on it's "logic" but thought better of it. The line about embryonic stem cell research being the most promising is arguable. There was nothing inaccurate about any of it. As far as despicable, I don't see any basis for that. He mentioned it in passing. I will have to assume from your not addressing the question that you don't know what's wrong with either acting and/or going off one's meds. If there's anything borderline despicable in any of this it seems to me it's the cheap, inexplicable implied criticism of acting/off meds. At best it's tacky. I don't know how anyone could not be moved by those suffering from that awful disease. I have a good friend whose brother is degenerating. At least with something like Alzheimer's you are too out of it to fully appreciate what's happening to you.

Limbaugh also indicated a problem with the MJ Fox comments regarding each candidate's position on stem cell research stating that Senator Talent would, in effect, criminalize this type of research work which is not true. The stem cell petition on the Missouri ballot isn't written honestly, in Limbaugh's opinion. I have not read it. It would not be surprising though since it seems many petitions are purposefully written to obscure, confuse and to generate a fear amongst some voters.
