Nice try, but no amount of spin will change the fact that Matt Groening is a Fox insider and that he was ordered to cease and desist by Fox management for fears of taxing the grey matter of its viewers.

Uhh, it's exactly BECAUSE it is real that makes it comedy, sparky.

Fox and its viewers are prime sources for comedy gold.

Fox sent a cease and dismiss order to protect the Fox trademarks just like Matt Groening issues cease and desist orders against people who use the Simpsons without her permission. Its no different then the number of entertainment companies that issue orders to Youtube to have videos removed, and Fox who even issues the same for PRO Beck websites..

It has nothing to do with a lack of intelligence.

What you seem to be saying here is that Matt Groening was lying. What evidence do you have to support this assertion? Anything?

Anyway, your counter claim does not really make sense. "The Simpsons" airs on the Fox channel which would make what Matt did in his cartoon essentially gratuitous advertisement of the Fox brand.

Watching now. Dana somebody complaining that Obama is talking bad about Repubs? She says he should show he is for all Americans. Fact is, he is for all Americans and realizes the Repubs politicos are not, hence he is calling them out.

Now they are going to have a panel discuss Obama's "sit in the back" comment. Hey, the Repubs haven't even been in the room for 20 months, why would the people trying to do something, want them up front?

The "sit in the back" panel was one Dem and one Repub, and both simply expressed their biases. One saying the Pres is not being inclusive, the other saying evidence has shown they don't want to be included.
