:Neither Matt nor Trey has gone on record supporting Bush. Both are often assumed to be conservatives since the show seems to bash liberals so much, but neither publicly identifies himself as such. In fact, Parker is a registered Libertarian. The truth is that South Park's satire is more social in nature than political; making fun of specific political figures has never been their focus.[[User:Raymondluxuryacht|Raymondluxuryacht]] 06:51, 13 April 2006 (UTC) |

Yeah, I was really surprised when it turned out that Bush knew what the First Amendment was. I doubt he does in real life. |

Speculations
"It is speculated (but not confirmed) that the creators/writers for Family Guy will either be Scientologists, Catholics, Crab People, Saddam Hussein, the Super Adventure Club, Tom Cruise, Xenu, Darth Chef or another character/group portrayed recently in the series." By whom is it speculated? Bezo 04:57, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- What Bezo said. And how is it based on commercials for the show, its website and/or other advance publicity? And if I think Patrick Duffy is behind it all can I add him on the list too? And, finally, what's the point of speculation if you have a list longer then my arm? --Bahati 08:44, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
The Big Part Two
- Twenty bucks says they show a Terrance and Phillip episode.
- Yeah, I am half-expecting something completely out of left field, although that one was April 1st. Something having nothing to do with continuing the plotline from the last episode. Doregasm 00:34, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
- You guy were half right... Ace ofspade 03:25, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
- I was actually convinced for a second that they were really going to pull that "...will not air tonight!" business. Jeff Silvers 03:30, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
You guys are awesome...
Holy crap you guys are updating fast!!
Thank you to everyone whos been working on all the south park articles on wikipedia, they are Really good.
(you can delete this whenever you like)
Muhammad image removed by Commedy Central?
Was the image of Muhammad really removed by Comedy Central?
Yes it was. How disappointing.
How do you know for sure? Couldn't it be just part of the whole free speech joke? Did Comedy Central actually release a statement saying this?
- I was sorta wondering the same thing. Jeff Silvers 03:02, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
Im guessing it could have gone either way. Either it was part of the joke or comedy central removed it. Someone please update this page when there is a statement or proof of either side. PrettyMuchBryce 03:17, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
My guess is that Comedy Central actually does have a policy now where it won't air images of Mohammed, but Parker and Stone knew that beforehand. They had the statement about how CC doesn't air the images immediately followed by the most vulgar cartoon with Jesus in it because of the irony of not being able to show someone handing a football helmet to someone else, but being able to show someone covered in shit. 04:03, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
I personally doubt that Comedy Central censored the image over Matt and Trey's heads. Still, though, I've reworded the section so it states what happened, but doesn't promote a particular viewpoint on why it happened.Raymondluxuryacht 04:09, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
About how Bush was portrayed...
"This is an unusual depiction of the President, who is often satirized for his supposed simple-mindedness; here, Bush is shown as being clear in his speech and thought with the media being portrayed as anti-free speech and uninformed."
Um, but aren't Matt and Trey pro-Bush? So as unusual as it is, it makes sense they wouldn't make fun of him like most people do... (although part of me is surprised that they didn't anyways). Would it be a good idea to add that information to this fact?
They have never really said if they like him or not, but they have made fun of him in the past a fair bit (that's my bush). Maybe it just didn't fit into the plot.Jaderaid 06:43, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Missing cultural reference
The leadup to the Kyle and Cartman fight reminded me alot of the Matrix and Matrix Revolutions fight between Neo and Agent Smith.--The dez 07:19, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
