Olbermann video of Limbaugh mocking Fox's Parkinson's [VIDEO]

On Tuesday Melissa wrote about Rush Limbaugh's "unbearably heinous" mockery of Michael J. Fox's campaign ad, for pro-stem cell research Democrat, Claire McCaskill.

Limbaugh, as usual, didn't even get the facts correct. His allegation that Fox was exaggerating his ticks by perhaps not taking his medication is exactly wrong. The ticks are the result of taking the meds. But whatever, Rush isn't really into all the nuts and bolts of prescription meds, just the abuse of them.

Now, Keith Olbermann has the video of Rush's desperate attack on a Parkinson's sufferer, as well as Fox's grace-ful response. Watch video above.
