“We are voicing are continued opposition to this policy. (unfortunately there wasn't a anti-war candidate on the ballot last year, so we overlooked it out of necessity, but any actual progressive can't support this failed adventure)”

“Well, there was Kucinich and Paul, but neither would have a chance, and the latter is just unacceptable.”

“One thing I have to ask: What is this for?
Bin Laden and his cronies are in pakistan now, and the afghan people don't want us there. So what gives? Energy pipelines? Political maneuvering?”

“This is why I don't watch South Park anymore. Their core audience doesn't understand satire, and simply emulate cartman and embrace the things that episodes supposedly lampoon. A recent episode involved the use of anti-gay slur in reference to annoying motorcyclists (a satirical attempt to de-legitimize the term). The irony is typically lost on middleschoolers, which is what happened here.”

gbee replied on Nov 30, 2009 at 21:29:04

“Not true, most of their core audience "gets it," otherwise there would be way more of this stupidity afoot. What's sad is that there really ARE Cartman's out there, who only need the slightest excuse to direct their anger at ANYONE different than themselves. Next time maybe South Park should direct these fools' attention to something inanimate and red, like a brick wall - something that will hit back just as hard and as senselessly.”

“I think the incident itself is harmless, and the couple deserve their spot on the show for pulling it off.
What it says about SS is not a laughing matter though.”

“I think the couple are incredibly ballsy and deserve a show. The entire SS on duty that night should be fired.
I'm betting the Pres will let the crashers go- he doesn't seem vindictive.”

“How about those townhall meetings where the President was appearing and some attendees were carrying guns both concealed and openly-- security may have been laxed there too.”

“That's not being vindictive. The SS was also responsible for the well being of foreign dignitaries.
They need to be prosecute.”

“UM SWITZERLAND?????
Switzerland was never a colonial power. It states in the article that most of the immigrants to that country are from the former Yugoslavia, which was never a Swiss colony.
Get your facts straight.”

“I think people are being extraordinarily myopic about this. This is one offensive image that through a mathematical quirk has been raised to a high position on a search list.

For this we should call for: censorship of google, or a boycott of google until they become arbiters of taste on the internet?
NO
Were you asleep during the campaign? The Obamas and this country as a whole are stronger than that, and more mature- we don't need censorship, we a change in attitudes.
Covering up racism isn't the solution, we must address it openly, through frank dialogue.
This overt racism exemplified in this image really isn't all that dangerous, when it is hidden under code names in rallies against "socialism" and "tyranny," this what we have to worry about.”

“censorship is not the answer.
if you censored everything that was homophobic, the president would not get to bring his favorite preacher to the inauguration after said preacher spewed hate in a campaign that removed peoples rights.
Don't know what I'm talking about? Figures.”
