→‎Liberal Episodes: Technically, Quimby's more of a parody of the Kennedy clan as a whole rather than JFK specifically.
Line 72: Line 72:  
*''Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish'': Supports Environmentalism and criticizes nuclear power. Also, the title of the episode was a reference to [[Lyndon B. Johnson]]'s talking point for his infamous [[Great Society]] social welfare programs.

*''Lisa vs. Malibu Stacy'': Lisa, after getting a talking Malibu Stacy doll and getting outraged by some of her statements (a reference to the "Math Class is Tough" talking Teen Barbie doll controversy), makes a pro-feminist crusade against the company and eventually creates a Lisa Lionheart doll that pushes the agenda, with the doll's cited inspirations being "the wisdom of [[Gertrude Stein]], the wit of [[Cathy Guisewite]], the tenacity of [[Nina Totenberg]], the common sense of [[Elizabeth Cady Stanton]], and the down-to-earth good looks of [[Eleanor Roosevelt]]." It's also implied that she forced her family to do other left-wing causes she adopted such as making them march in a "gay pride" parade and boycott Fox News over owning a Syrian Chemical Weapons Plant. There was also a brief exchange that implied that Marge had been unknowingly brainwashed by Malibu Stacy as a child. In addition, Stacey Lovell, the doll's creator and her ally, is implied to have committed treason against the United States during the Vietnam War by funneling funds to the Viet Cong and is treated positively for it. There was also a brief homosexual joke with Smithers, and Abe's complaint about how "the president is a Demmycrat" (presumably a reference to [[Bill Clinton]], who was the president at the time the episode aired) is mocked due to it being from a list of complaints that drove the family to flee from him as soon as they got back to the house.

*''Sideshow Bob Roberts'': Takes jabs at the [[Republican Party]] as attempted murderer Sideshow Bob becomes a Republican mayor (although that being said, there was also some jabs at the [[Democrat Party]] in the form of Mayor Quimby, himself a parody of [[John F. Kennedy]]), there's also right-wing talk show host named Birch Barlow (parody of [[Rush Limbaugh]]) who defends him whether it's right or wrong. Later in the episode, in a similar manner to the [[Watergate Scandal]], it was revealed that Bob committed voter fraud (though ironically, an earlier scene had Homer and Krusty, both of whom Bob had antagonized earlier, throwing their votes for Bob, strongly implying that Bob would have won against Quimby even without the fraud). The episode had been written as a result of the Republican Revolution of 1994.

*''Homer's Phobia'': Homer criticizes the practice of homosexuality, but in the end he changes his mind. There's also a slight jab at hunting in the episode as well, as Bart, when Homer attempted to have him partake in the activity in an attempt to make him more "manly", referred to the activity as "gay".
