What was the slam in the ~1 minute scene?

It was an indirect reference to McCain/Palin supporters as whackos. The same show portrays a skinny white “redneck” as a gun-toting NRA supporter with an obese wife. I’m all for character development and comedic interpretations, but as an NRA Life member and a (hesitant) McCain voter, I take exception to being characterized as a whackjob, a sex-doll user, or illiterate.

All signs point to Fox canceling “The Cleveland Show” anyway. It really never hit its stride, and every week was a strained attempt at humor at the expense of a “white-sounding” black man.

He lives in “Stoolbend” for Christ’s sake. How could you take that seriously?
