LIMBAUGH 'STAYS THE COARSE': CLAIMS FDR FAKED POLIO
Rush Limbaugh, undaunted by his latest embarrassment — his FOX-like attack on Michael J. Fox for the sin of having Parkinson’s Disease — has now gone one step further, claiming that FDR faked polio and paralysis in order to pass the New Deal.

Limbaugh explained that “if not for FDR’s Oscar-caliber acting job, the unemployed and sick would still be dying in the streets, the way God intended it to be.”

Limbaugh also asserted that Max Cleland never actually lost three limbs in Vietnam, but merely utilized the same “tricks” that were used on Lieutenant Dan in Forrest Gump.

The Chief of the Dittoheads, dismissing criticism that he unfairly mocked Fox, said on his nationally syndicated radio show: “the shaking, the tremors, the speech impairments, fake, fake, fake.”

Limbaugh further insisted that he “can’t believe that someone would ever skip their meds unless they wanted to create sympathy — take it from me, I never skipped my pain medication.”
