I thought a SouthPark Republican, was the type of Republican who might enjoy watching South Park. Not all Republican as religious prigs. See for example P. J. O'Rourke. There are a lot of Republicans who enjoy grade school potty humor, profanity, booze, drugs, prostitutes, bigiotry, bar fights, etc. and some of them admit some of their enjoyments.

I know I keep posting these guys, but this is worth reading.

This Book Sucks: an Analysis of “South Park Conservatives” From a Republican

His further comments follow along the same vein.

Point is, just because someone writes a book doesn’t mean it somehow becomes gospel for Republicans.

The term “South Park Republican” was meant to describe a Republican that doesn’t adhere to the ideals and positions of the more conservative wing of the GOP.

The right has never tried to claim South Park as it’s “own.”

South Park takes a very libertarian attitude towards the usse the address. This is why pro-environment liberals (the tree-huggers) are mocked- libertarians dont believe in envirmontal regualtions for the most part. THey also mock the Christian Right for their attempts to impose their morals on everyone.

I think it's pretty interesting that Democrats can't watch a TV show without trying to claim it as their "own".

Agree SP lobs grenades in both camps but the very fact that it goes after some sacred liberal icons (in addiiton to relentlessy going after Christianity etc) makes it “seem” pro conservative to us.

One of the creators (can’t remember which, the blonde one) once said “I hate Republicans almost as much as I hate liberals.”

So neither side gets to claim it.

South Park skewers liberals as tree huggers also, it is an equal opportunity offender.

I think it’s pretty interesting that Republicrits can’t watch a TV show without trying to claim it as their “own”.
