ATLANTA -- Comedy Central's "South Park" won its first Peabody Award on Wednesday, winning praise from judges as TV's boldest, most politically incorrect satirical series.

"South Park" was praised as a show that "pushes all the buttons, turns up the heat and shatters every taboo," Peabody Awards Director Horace Newcomb said. "Through that process of offending it reminds us of the need for being tolerant."

My guess is that the ones putting those keywords on there aren't Republicans....

On the contrary, they're most likely Republicans.

And I would would rather pick up broken glass with my ass-cheeks than spend ten minutes in their company. Nothing more tedious than a humorless fool.

[MikefromOhio]

I doubt it.

They were probably Republicans at one point, my guess is that they consider themselves either independent, Buchananites and/or Constipation Party members....

How come at least a genius has to show up on every South Park thread and ask an Islam or Mohamed question ?

All good comedy is about Islam, right?

I don't know who you are - but I love ya, man!

Is this Paul Denton fella good looking?

He can't be banned if he's a hottie.

It's a corollary to the "Teacher does 14-year old student" rule.

No offense to anyone here, but discussing comedy on Free Republic is like discussing hang-gliding with a trout.

I told Max that he never was hit on by the teachers in high school - cause they were hitting on the cool kids.

Max doesn't talk to me anymore.

Don't do it. I have it on very good authority he has glass in his @ss-cheeks.

[Dashing Dasher]

I thought he said he wore glasses on his a**cheeks.

[Malacoda]

Well, thank God it's not, "Free Hat!"

[rattrap]

I'm in.

It comes in on the prestiege scale just after a "Free Large Fries with Next Order Over $5" card stuck in a Jack-in-the-Box bag. Proudly dished out by my undergrad alma mama - UGA.

I like these people.. They hate South Park, but they ask why haven't they done a Islam episode...

[Xenalyte]

I knew you could do it, Trey, you cutie!

[KevinDavis]

You mean the holier than thou wing of the Republican Party (now know as the Constipation Party)...

[MikefromOhio]

LOL

That'd be the one :)

Exactly, their underpants obviously shrunk in the dryer.

Maybe the underpants gnomes took 'em.
