South Park Republicans each vote Republican for their own reasons.....However, most view Republicans as the lesser of two evils.

That's me!

[oldvike]

Yes, Matt and Trey have said repeatedly that they are Republicans, but for some weird reason the losertarians always claim them as their own.

I read an interview in Playboy 2 years ago in which Trey claimed to be a small "l" libertarian and Matt said he was a Repub.

South Park is pretty hilarious... and I am Republican...I guess that counts me in...

Me too!

I like to laugh and, though Hollywood's liberal bent often annoys me, I still like to watch comedies and just try to ignore much of the liberal baloney. South Park is a bonus in that it is one of the extremely few (perhaps only?) shows that frequently -- tho not always -- espouses the "right" side of things.

Remember I'm just as free not to believe as you are to believe. And I do respect your belief, I just see it a different way.
I know you are free to believe or not. And I respect our belief too, but I won't sit back and let someone call me (basically) stupid like fissionproducts did.
Religion requires you to supress your intellect.
If religion (and I use that in the loosest of interpretations since I'm not real keen on "religion as an organization" to begin with) requires one to supress their intellect what does atheism or agnosticism require? An expansion or narrowing of your intellect?
Seem like a narrowing of intellect to me.

"(perhaps only?) shows that frequently -- tho not always -- espouses the "right" side of things."

Check out The Simpsons, they're generally always on the "right" side of things too.

If you have to believe in things until you can disprove them then you have to believe in anything you can imagine until it is disproven. Prove to me that Donald Duck does not live at the center of the sun. You can't. See how silly that line of thinking looks?

I think that's his point.

I am - the "South Park Republican."

At last, a home.

Interesting you say that. I watched the 1st few Simpsons back when they began on Tracy Ullman's show. I could never get into them, and I think it's mainly because they were so ugly to look at (and their voices so unattractive too), that it distracted from what they were saying. I also usually don't care for stupid characters or bratty characters as the "heroes" of a piece.

Now, I LOVE the Family Guy! Granted, the father & the son are ugly pinheads, but evil-genius baby Stewie and Brian the cocktail-swilling dog are just too, too funny. Plus the guy who created it, Seth McFarland, loads it with references way beyond his young years.

[Minnesoootan]

, but I tell you what,

Sounds like Hank Hill is a close third? ;-)

[walkingdead]

I know what you mean about the early Simpsons, I watched them too. But they've cleaned up real nice since, and even though the hero is a bratty boy, or a lazy nuclear technition, it's all part of the charm.

And I think if you watch it closely you'll find that most of the "lessons" learned on that show are pretty wholesome. I highly suggest it.

[weikel]

Count me in.

[walkingdead]

Oh yea, and the Family Guy is a riot! The baby absolutely makes that show.

"You've been impeding my process since I escaped from you wretched womb!"

Funny stuff!

[weikel]

I think Trey said he was a small l libertarian who votes Republican.

[weikel]

They need to bring back that show.

[billbears]

A bring back Kenny bump for later

[Phantom Lord]

I would put my spelling skills up against the worst spellers here. I SUCK!

[weikel]

No I don't want them to bring Kenny back the Kenny dying jokes got old.

[weikel]

You need to get hooked on monkey phonics.

[billbears]

Well at least settle on Butters then. I like Butters

[walkingdead]

You know what really needs to come back; more bashing of Cartmans mom. The eposodes with her are classic. Like when they all wanted to be lesbos, cause they had the fine substitute teacher that was one. The info Cartman got from his mom was classic.
