Episode 808 - Douche and Turd

So at the urging of various members of y'all, I watched that one South Park episode in its entirety. Yes, the Puffy video was very funny, as was the bit with Jim Lehrer, but I still seem to be missing something that the rest of you are seeing.

It's true that, as I was advised, the episode as a whole carried a different message than the first 10 minutes did. However, it was a shift from the initially apparent moral of "The 2004 U.S. presidential election is a crock that you should ignore" to the final message of "If you participate in any elections at all, you are a singing, dancing fool, and we mock you."

Is this sort of thing a representative sample of the election-inspired media that the youngern have been watching? Coz, you show me this, and then you sigh about the flat youth turnout rate last Tuesday, and I trace lines in the air between them while looking at you questioningly.

The one PETA guy who looked like daerr was pretty funny, though.
