They actually did a show where Hillary Clinton was a terrorist w a bomb in her vagina and special forces refused to go in there to de-fuse it because...
Then there was the show where Cartman's mother wanted to abort him at age eight. Their way of saying we support late term abortions...
There's no doubt they attack everybody, but Progressives more often. As they said in an interview, "I hate conservatives but I f___ing hate Liberals." They have tried to walk that statement back after it cut into their ratings.
Seriously, no show about Cheney shooting a dude in the face?
Let's not praise those who despise Progressives.

Also: Right Wing Watch says:
The Manhattan Institute is an increasingly prominent conservative think-tank that promotes limited government and free-market idealism. The organization has attacked minority-focused policies including affirmative action, civil rights initiatives, and immigrant support programs as obstacles to full social integration and to the benefits of the market system. The Institute heavily promotes school vouchers, saying that competition as the best way to improve public schools.
Peggy Noonan and William Krystol are on the board of trustees.
The organization holds several high profile lecture series and policy forums and has hosted policy speeches by Bush administration officials and Republican presidential candidates.
