We Can't Wait.
BAD
BOYS. It seems the Bush
Administration, or
one of its big honchos, is angry about a movie:
The so-called "Bush look-a-like" [sic] is the figure shown above. For those who don't have an intimate knowledge of the back of Bush's head, it's kind of hard to tell if it's supposed to be Dubya or not. Regardless, we think the Bushies are overreacting here and should at least watch the trailer for Team America before they rant any more about this. From what we know about Matt Stone and Trey Parker, we'd bet that the movie is going to be taste-free, offensive to all races and sexes, and frequently funny. While the trailer does explicitly promise to anger the president, it also vows to enrage Alec Baldwin, Sean Penn, George Clooney, Michael Moore, Janeane Garofalo and assorted other Bush-hating lefties. A lot of rightwingers might not want any help from the likes of Stone and Parker, but they should calm down long enough to check out the phenomenon of South Park Republicans, whose votes will be as important as anyone else's in reelecting George Bush. Here's what Tech Central Station had to say on the subject:
So relax fellas. If you'll buy the tickets, we'll buy the popcorn, Pepsi, and twizzlers and meet up with you in the lobby just before the show. And as for that stick in your ass, leave it at home. Theater seats are uncomfortable enough these days as it is.
A new film set for release from
PARAMOUNT has raised the pop culture threat levels at the White House
-- a film which lampoons the war on terror [and media urgency] using
puppets, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
"I really do not think terrorism is funny, and I would suggest PARAMOUNT give respect to those fighting and sacrificing to keep America safe," a senior Bush adviser told the DRUDGE REPORT this weekend.
The new fuss film TEAM AMERICA, set for release two weeks before the November presidential election, is entering post-production with SOUTH PARK creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
A deep voice using serious tones opens the film's teaser: "We live in a time of unparalleled danger. Weapons of Mass Destruction are being offered to terrorists all over the world. Global chaos is about to consume every country on Earth. And there is only one hope for humanity."
The movie's official poster features an apparent Bush look-a-like [strings attached] with his back to the viewer.

Here's what Tech Central Station had to say on the subject:
The name stems from the primetime
cartoon "South Park" that clearly demonstrates the contrast within the
party. The show is widely condemned by some moralists, including
members of the Christian right. Yet in spite of its coarse language and
base humor, the show persuasively communicates the Republican position
on many issues, including hate crime legislation ("a savage
hypocrisy"), radical environmentalism, and rampant litigation by
ambitious trial lawyers. In one episode, industrious gnomes pick apart
myopic anti-corporate rhetoric and teach the main characters about the
benefits of capitalism.
South Park Republicans are true
Republicans, though they do not look or act like Pat Robertson. They
believe in liberty, not conformity. They can enjoy watching The
Sopranos even if they are New Jersey Italians. They can appreciate the
tight abs of Britney Spears or Brad Pitt without worrying about the
nation's decaying moral fiber. They strongly believe in liberty,
personal responsibility, limited government, and free markets. However,
they do not live by the edicts of political correctness.
So relax fellas. If you'll buy the tickets, we'll buy the popcorn, Pepsi, and twizzlers and meet up with you in the lobby just before the show. And as for that stick in your ass, leave it at home. Theater seats are uncomfortable enough these days as it is.
