IF that was the official excuse, I would have to laugh in their faces at the pathetically hidden dig at Trig Palin.
Obviously, his big sister felt that way, too.
We’ll have to agree to disagree.
Did Rush ever explain how he was portrayed, did he describe the character or was he playing himself in his upcoming episode? He's extremely self-effacing, can take a true joke, but I doubt he'd allow himself to be shown as a complete right-wing buffoon or such. Are the Family Guy people going to try to claim how reasonable, *fair and balanced* they are if indeed Rush comes out well?
It's low, they are notorious at the nasty stuff. The episode where they had all the characters repeating "Laura Bush killed a man" ... "Laura Bush killed a man??" over and over and over, then the deaf elephant in the next room, another not-so-subtle smack at the GOP. Another episode, where Stewie and Brian go back in time, they happen upon the wedding of Hitler's parents, they need uranium to make the time machine work so they can get back home, Brian finds out the Germans are creating nukes, "Germany is making weapons of mass destruction? Then why isn't America at war with them ... ooooh, it's not oil, aha."
Oh, funny.
Trouble is, my hub enjoys this show and I'm stuck reading a book while it's on, trying to distract my mind, unfortunately, it doesn't always work.
