LOL (Family Guy)

[nyhuskyfan]

Halloween party - Peter goes as Laura Bush, and Lois goes as the guy she killed (with tire tracks over her shirt).

1. They're not pulling any punches tonight. n/t

[WillParkinson]

2. Sigh. I can't believe I'm going to say this (and probably get flamed)

That's extremely poor taste. I have no compassion for Ms. Bush, but the person she killed has family. What about them? Just because it's OK for her to be a target (public figure and all) shouldn't the family of the dead man have some compassion?

3. I won't flame you

That's actually a very fair point - a perspective I hadn't thought of.

Family Guy has, of course, continued to push the envelope in the next 20 minutes as well.

4. Well said

people forget that the family of that poor young man are probably still grieving. When a child is killed at a young age, the parents never really get over it.

6. Since you didn't get flamed, I probably will...

I think that holding Laura's feet to the fire, so to speak, albeit in a comedic venue in some respects does honor his memory via provocation.

Just my .02, though.

5. I think I would be more upset....

...that the young woman who ran over and murdered my son ended up becoming the First Lady of the United States.

Better rich and guilty than poor and innocent.

7. "I'm no meteorologist, but I'm pretty sure it's raining bitches!"

Cleveland is cracking me up tonight. :rofl:

Great episode so far.

8. That was totally hilarious.

First time I ever watched. Damn, another addiction.
