“Radical Islam” = not used these days in the Obama administration.

Love the “we aren’t promoting violence... but here’s their address” line.

I’d be more concerned about the Ginger Kids myself. They have no souls.

They should pay attention, CNN-Time-Life-Warner has had reporters embedded with Al Qaeda before.

What ?? South Park looking to boost ratings ?

In the USA yet. These little punks.

Mecha Streisand is not amused.

For those that want to equate fundamentalist Christianity with radical Islam ...

... I don’t recall Christians threatening the life of the South Park creators after Christ was parodied.

Aren’t you glad the Obama Admin and the media are so busy trying to paint Tea Party participants as potential terrorists while removing radical Islam from such a designation?

Why are Sean Penn and Matt Damon not defending the SOuth Park creators.

Team America:
“Matt Damon”

[KarlInOhio]

The whole episode ridicules TROP for their violent outlook so they just come out and confirm it. Trey and Matt will probably be laughing until their heads hit the ground.

Wonder when Bill Clinton is going to call out these haters for their violent rhetoric, the same sort that drove the 9-11 hijackers to commit their deeds.

[vpintheak]

They better watch out. Seriously.

Come and get me...I'll be waiting for you!

South Park stinks — it is obvious impudent rebellion against God, believers in a god, healthy social mores, and thus, important foundations of Western Civilization — and it is a shame when Free Republic posters promote it.

But at least they aren’t threatened by people who have a healthy understanding of the above.

Who knew Muhammad looked like a stick figure drawing?

[allmendream]

Christ is rather sympathetically portrayed in “South Park”.

One of my favorite episodes is when the 120 lb Christ gets into a boxing match with the 666 lb devil, and almost everyone in South Park bets on the Devil.... who throws the fight.

Brilliant social and theological commentary on the necessity of faith in Christ against overwhelming odds.

Or the episode where Christ, the boys and Mr. Hankey go to rescue Santa Clause from the Iraqis who shot his sleigh down with a grenade launcher. Christ ends up sacrificing himself for the others and Clause proclaims that Christmas will be about Jesus for now on. Hilarious and meaningful all at the same time.
