[lbo-talk] South Park's 100th

[Carl Remick]

Comedy Central just broadcast the 100th episode of South Park.  The show 
featured a time-traveling Eric Cartman going back to 1776 to learn what the 
nation's Founding Fathers thought of antiwar protests.  It turns out the FFs 
believed the US should forever be a land where citizens could protest wars 
to their hearts' content.  That way, the FFs said, the protesters could 
convey the image of Americans as a kind, caring people while leaving the 
government, in actual fact, free to wage war anytime, anyplace, for any 
reason with impunity.  Good episode.
