He was the much-publicized SuperPAC chief which, despite spending over $300M did not win a single race.

Somewhere, there is someone fitting a pair of cement sneakers for good old Karl. ;D

Well duh, we know this. Rove's been a laughing stock for how many years now?

To bring up a more relevant topic, how much longer will FNC keep him around? I'd think they'd want to do away with him asap.

It's news WRT The Simpsons in that they were able to insert news (from 11/6,7 into a show aired 11/10) into a show that takes months to finish an episode. Who are they trying to be, South Park? ;D

Sure, it was only a few seconds compared to an entire episode. But still... ;)

I didn't see this episode. If it was only the chalkboard gag and not also actual animation of Karl Rove, then it would've be very easily especially with today's technology to insert that joke.

This is really nothing new compare to what they did to an 1992-93 episode that aired shortly after that election. It involved Krusty the Clown telling jokes at some theater or club and he thanks President Clinton and Hillary for being there in a cutaway scene. At the time, they had to make three different scenes with one featuring either Bush, Clinton, and even Ross Perot. The episode was mostly been put together during the election campaign with that one cutaway shot inserted after the fact.
 
If this was on Sunday, I missed it because the football game ran over and the episode wasn't taped. At least I knew this in time to add time for the "Family Guy" 200th episode special, which was great.
