The Simpsons offends Argentina...the country
For anyone who has ever been to South America, you know that if you ever turn on a TV there a channel will always be showing the Simpsons (dubbed in Spanish). They love the Simpsons there. Most cities will have a real life bar called "Moe's Tavern". Its weird.
 
So here is a funny article.
 
D'oh! Simpsons again anger South Americans
 
From the article:
 
Quote:

During the episode, Homer and his friends gathered at Moe's Tavern and grumbled about their choices of political candidates. The conversation seemed innocent enough, until Homer's buddy Carl Carlson opened his mouth.
 
"I'd really go for some kind of military dictator, like Juan Perón," Carl said, mentioning the general who was elected president by Argentines three times. "When he 'disappeared' you, you stayed disappeared."
 
Carl's friend Lenny then delivered a coup de grâce: "Plus, his wife was Madonna."
 
His wife was Madonna!
 
Glad to see the Simpsons haven't lost it after all these years!
