Well that will be interesting Linda. Wasn't his Spin CIty character based on his character in American President which was based on George?

I think they are trying a different emphasis on what he did wrong now [because they can't just let him exercise his right without finding something wrong with it]...shifting it to lying I believe although probably not said in those words. Again, it just seems like word games....the amendment does not promote human cloning.

Yep, that Michael is a shifty, manipulative and dishonest guy....anyone who has met him says so.:cool:

geez,
Paula

Thanks for posting this info.

As a newbie to PD (officially diagnosed 4/4/06) I have to say that just about everyone I've met with PD, which is literally 100's of people during my short "tenure", have all inspired me in their own way with their courage, attitudes, and determination. These people have allowed me to go out and speak, educate, advocate, and make people aware however I can. And believe me I take every opportunity presented to me to do so!

But it's immensly clear how much of a positive impact MJF has had for our disease and the opportunites he has created for all of us, so that we can go out into our own communities to further the cause and fight the good fight.

Regardless of his personal politics, or his personal agenda, I for one appreciate his efforts far more than words can illustrate.

Thanks Mike.

I agree wholeheartedly!
