1. Michael J. Fox?!

Appearing with Kerry? The guy's just about the most beloved celebrity on this continent!

Pinch me! I think I fell asleep Thursday afternoon and still haven't woken up!

2. Michael and JK gave great speeches....

Kerry came on and indicated they have met doing a charity hockey game for Denis Leary's foundation in Worcester and they have now done five but now he wants to help Michael and 600,000 New Hampshirites who suffer daily from diseases that stem cell research could benefit---but we have a President who is unyielding, stubborn, beholden to "far right" idealogues who are stopping this research. He pointed out a brain drain from the US, researchers eschewing projects that involve stem cell research due to Bush's policies.

An older woman stood right up in typical Yankee style and said she hated to interrupt his 'very important speech' but she had to leave and wanted Kerry to know she supports everything he is doing. It was "too late for her" :( and Kerry was moved, let her speak her mind, (Bush would have had her carted off no doubt), addressed her and smoothly weaved back into his speech.

7. Oh boy! First Leonardo DiCaprio

and now MJF! *sigh* And any celebrites up with Bush now endorsing him? Hmm....Of course not. Bush thinks Hollywood people don't count, but wait, they have Arnold! Or is he now a politician and not a movie star any more? Also at the rally thing after the debate in Miami Kerry had Babyface too! :bounce:

4. It was a heart breaking town hall.

I'm so shocked by Fox's current state, my heart goes out for all of those suffering from these terrible afflictions.
I almost cried during the brief showing CNN gave it.

6. It's all so sad . . .

When Fox left Spin City, he said that he was confident there would be a cure within his lifetime.

Of course, Clinton was president then, and stem cell research was not forbidden.

Please, everyone, let me know if a video becomes available on the internet. I haven't got TV.

8. I'd love to

see the video too. I was sad too when MJF left the show. I remember when Charlie Sheen came on I was bound not to like him since he replaced the beloved MJF. But I like both Charlie and MJF. :) I wish more Bush supporters could see what their beloved president is doing to people. :(
