A Powerful Ad

by Don Pogreba on October 20, 2006 · 2 comments

Maybe it’s my age, and growing up in the 1980s, but this is one powerful ad.

When people tell you that it doesn’t matter which party you support, remember that only one party has been so co-opted by the extreme religious right that it is willing to support legislation that limits efforts to cure debilitating diseases like Parkinson’s. We can have honest disagreements about faith in this country, but we must reject the theocon agenda that undermines science and takes away hope.

You’re right–it’s a great spot.

I have a friend with Parkinson’s. He’s been through hell.

I didn’t get to this post until after I posted. Sorry for the duplication.
