GOP commentator Limbaugh refuses to apologize for attacking people with Parkinson's disease
by John in DC - 10/25/2006 01:20:00 PM


So much for ABC News' massive screw-up last night, claiming on the air that Rush Limbaugh apologized for calling Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's tremors "fake." CNN just aired what Limbaugh said, and, big surprise, it wasn't an apology at all.

LIMBAUGH: "All right then, I stand corrected... so I will bigly, hugely admit that I was wrong, and I will apologize to Michael J. Fox, if I am wrong in characterizing his behavior on this commercial as an act."

I will apologize if I am wrong? How is that an apology? All Limbaugh said is that if anyone can prove him wrong, some day, then that day he will apologize. That's not an apology. It's not even one of those lame "I apologize if you were offended" apologies.

1. " I Will Apologize If I Am Wrong" (He always says that)

and of course, in 20 years of broadcasting, he has never once admitted he was wrong.

3. Well...

That's because he's so arrogant, he doesn't think he can be wrong.

4. Somebody needs to kick that putz in the teeth

Not that I'm advocating violence or anything.

[Mythsaje]

5. Anyone who kicks him in the teeth should be prepared

to lose a foot. I'm not sure Rush is too picky about what he eats.

6. I'd kick his ass, but I don't want that anal cyst to spread and envelop all

mankind.

[AnneD]

12. I'd like to hold him down...

let Michael take a few hits at him, them place my feminazi USAR boot up his cyst infested draft dodging ass. But I have the feeling Michael would be too nice about it.

The crust on that mug....
