Bill Maher has made his name extolling "political incorrectness", which he seems to view as bashing the icons of straight society. Ironically, many of his guests are as politically correct as can be: the Michael Moores and Sean Penns of the world. To me "politically incorrect" would be John Ashcroft talking about guns.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone, on the other hand, have no such blinders. They know that the anti-establishment naive cynicism of Hollywood is hardly considered incorrect by the intelligista. Rather it's the Party line. So they blow it up quite completely in their new film, Team America: World Police, along with a few assorted monuments, such as the Pyramids and Louve.
Parker and Stone have got it right: America may have feet of clay but in the end they are all that stands between civilization and the barbarians. An incorrect thing to say, as is denouncing Hollywood's useful idiots, but they dare to say it, and they say very well. I laughed my head off.
It's a good thing that Parker and Stone have done so well by South Park, because they're about to be blackballed by every right left-thinking person in the biz. Academy Awards? Probably not even in the "best puppet sex" category.
p.s. Stay through the credits.
