The Party of Peter Griffin
Posted by Jill | 5:34 AM
If you watch Family Guy, you know who Peter Griffin is. He's Ralph Kramden on steroids -- ugly, fat, boorish, juvenile. He's an inconsiderate abusive misogynistic lout. And every day, the line between the fictional cartoon character of Peter Griffin and the real-life pantload that is Rush Limbaugh becomes more blurred:
Rush Limbaugh, popular conservative radio host and Republican Party icon, thought he found a bit of humor in the record Red River flooding devastating parts of Minnesota and North Dakota: The word for the berms holding the river back is also a derogatory homophone for lesbians. He asks the “dykes” in North Dakota to call into the program.


And this is the guy before whom Republicans are genuflecting. Wonderful.

(UPDATE: Great minds think alike. Except my pop culture reference is more recent.)
