On Michael J. Fox

149 words.

I’ve been silent lately partly because of a newfound fascination with World of Warcraft, and partly because of a complete lack of interest in writing about campaign politics, which seems to be the dominant topic in the world lately. But here’s a few quick blurbs.

On Michael J. Fox, I essentially agree with what Lean Left wrote: If it makes you uncomfortable watching Michael J. Fox suffer, maybe you should rethink your opinion of stem cell research. If it doesn’t, fine. And sure, the commercial tugs at the emotions of voters. That’s the whole purpose of campaign ads, from what I’ve observed. How is that different from any number of other campaign ads? At least Fox is talking about an actual political issue and not, say, dating Playboy bunnies.
