The current South Park: liberal or conservative?
It's tough to say which side they're taking with this one.

2. not watching tonight's (it's too early on the West Coast)
but I'd say the show is neither liberal nor conservative. That's the beauty of humor - you can laugh at all sides.

and also called global warming retarded.

5. Not quite true about the global warming
Edited on Wed Apr-28-04 09:35 PM by TroubleMan
They said that the idea that Global Warming causing an Ice Age retarded.

Actually it sounds retarded, but it's true. Global Warming will stop the oceanic underwater conveyer belt, and warm waters will no longer reach the northern and southern seas. Therefore the Europe and many places in America would have an Ice Age....caused by global warming.

6. Took jabs on both sides.
"White-Trash, Racist Redneck Conservative" versus "Aging Hippy Liberal Douche".

8. Neither. It's a metaphysical dichotomy.
Nobody's perfect... :D

Actually, they do attack both sides - but I rather think they're a little more lenient toward the right-wingers. That's the trouble with dichotomies, they're insanely difficult to prove...

11. Libertarian message with social liberal leanings
They seem to have a general distrust of the government but also seem to champion the underdogs. There seems to be a general disdain for any that seem to represent either end of the spectrum. Its as if trying to be involved is uncool in their book. Think slackers with clout.

14. I thought
I thought it was funny that the Conservatives had to become gay to stop the influx of the time travelers. Isn't that what Conservatives fear most?
