Did Rush apologize? Because I did NOT hear it
Where did Rush ever apologize for what he said? The corpomedia keeps saying "to be fair, he DID a apologize!"

I never heard an apology.

We had a thread about it. I paraphrase to make it short, but he said something like that he will apologize if he was wrong. So it doesn't really mean much.


"Now people are telling me they have seen Michael J. Fox in interviews and he does appear the same way in the interviews as he does in this commercial," Limbaugh said, according to a transcript on his Web site. "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."

4. I wouldn't accept it if I were Fox. I'd tell him to stick it up his ass.

3. Nope, he said he might, oh maybe he will. MAYBE. IF.
"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, especially since people are telling me they have seen him this way on other interviews and in other television appearances."

6. He did not. He isn't able to understand right from wrong.

7. Limbaugh Not Backing Down
October 25, 2006 2:46 PM

ABC's Chris Marderosian reports: On his Wednesday radio program, Rush Limbaugh stood by his argument that certain people with "victim status" should not be allowed to "enter the fray with impunity."

"I stand by what I said," said Limbaugh. "I take back none of what I said . . . it is what I believe. It is what I think."

Limbaugh came under criticism earlier this week when he accused actor Michael J. Fox of exaggerating the physical effects of his Parkinson's disease in ads he made on behalf of Democratic candidates who back embryonic stem-cell research.

The bombastic radio host told listeners Monday that Fox's lurching, palsied movements in a television ad for Claire McCaskill, the Democrat running against Republican Sen. Jim Talent in Missouri, were "an act."
