I tend to agree with the basis of the article. Republicans are on the whole not stodgy old men in suits. Despite the image painted by the left, it is evident even on Freerepublic that Republicans and conservatives have fun too. Hollywood and the left want to paint Republicans in an image that makes the sheeple view liberals as the fun ones, out having a good time, and conservatives as boring.

Some of the best episodes are the ones where they slam Babs. And to think she was gonna sue them. Poor, Babs...

Right there with you. All my military buddies love South Park. I don't think I ever laughed harder in a movie theater when their movie came out.

Interesting article. Thanks for the post.

Yes I've noticed that people that read ann coulter columns do not like to look at blondes in short skirts...

"Colin Powell, Christie Whitman, J.C. Watts, and Condoleeza Rice."
Colin Powell is a left-wing liberal. He screwed up the first time around in the Persian Gulf War, which is why we still have this mess with Saddam contiunally taunting us and supporting terrorists. On the basis of HIS advice, Bush I decided to stop when he was about to destroy Saddam and his miliary. As a matter of fact, Powell opposed our acting in the Persian Gulf War up to the last minute. On many other issues, he is a social liberal, whose political philosphies are more in line with mainstream DemocRATs than Republicans.
Chrissie Whitman is a first class RINO. Thanks to her caving in to PETA and other animal rights wackos, New Jersey has a major problem with black bears; nothing was done to counter FLorio's "assault rifle ban"; she screwed up big time on the EZ-Pass issue; she cut taxes so excessively the state has problems with its infrastructure. She also appointed LaVecchia, Long, Verniero, Zazzali, and Chief Justice Deborah Poritz to the New Jersey State Supreme Court, creating the most liberal supreme court judicial body in the nation - one that sabotaged redistricting in New Jersey to favor DemocRATs, one which just recently allowed the DemocRATs at the last minute to insert spoiler Lautenberg into the Senatorial election, threatening any chance the Republicans have of taking over that body, plus rendering other decisions which are clearly legislating from the bench. She is supported and assisted by a liberal millionare Eisenberg who set up a liberal PAC to back liberal Republican candidates over moderates and conservatives. She left the state to actively campaign against a conservative Republican running in a general election - Oliver North. She openly boasts of being a "Rockefeller Republican". (Nelson Rockefeller was a limousine liberal who walked out the Republican Convention which nominated conservative Barry Goldwater back in 1964, and refused to support the candidate of his party's choice in the general election.) Most recently RINO Whitman was photographed congratulating Marge Roukema on her "career". Ms. Roukema is a RINO who had a voting record like a Democrat and who has stated she would NOT support the party choice in her district, a conservative Republican, and Roukema has not ruled out supporting the Democrat who is running against him. In short Ms. Whitman is loser - a rich, no-talent left-wing liberal loser.
J.C. Watts, on the other hand, along with Condolezza Rice seem to be the kind of candidates the republicnas need ore of.

Do you have any idea where the creator of the Simpsons lives. I have heard it as Southern Ore or North West Cal.

Maybe if South Park was a little more than adolescent, ignorant potty-jokes, it would be funny.
To: HAL9000
In one episode, industrious gnomes pick apart myopic anti-corporate rhetoric and teach the main characters about the benefits of capitalism. That was the point of the episode but not the point of the Underpants Gnomes. They were a joke about the dot coms( Step 1: Collect Underpants Step 2:??? Step 3:Profits).

Got it, actually I think in a lot of ways this article is a relabeling of an old demographic. I believe it's:
Reagan Democrat = South Park Republican.
It's conservatism focused on fiscal responsibility and reading the Constitution. Let the morality be handled by the society not the government (a dividing line people on both sides of the isle have trouble seeing). That's something both South Park and Reagan pushed. Before people brand SPR's social liberals they should check out the Boy Scout episode where they defend the Boy Scouts right to kick out gays (not because they're anti-gay, but because they're pro-free association).

Wow, the point of this article is currently circling a few thousand feet over your head. SP is a LOT more than adolescent potty-jokes. And anybody that points out how "environmentalists don't respond to logic or reason" (that's an exact qoute BTW, one of my favorite SP lines) can hardly be called ignorant.
