That's what he's referring to as 'problems with pure Parkinson's.'
It's a bit of a dilemma: show Parkinson's symptoms and be difficult to understand, or show the symptoms induced by the medication and look a bit ...theatrical.
BTW, there's a video of Rush doing his show and physically mocking MJF as he trashes his TV spot.
Anyone who thinks Rush is being 'respectful' of Fox ought to look that up.

I never even said he took too much intentionally, only that it is not his normal state. My source for this is MJF himself, and evidenced by the fact that he does not appear that way in any of his other appearances.
Logic is a b1tch.
