I was stunned by this episode -- easily the most political Simpsons in
years.  I'm not sure the voice actors deserve a tripling of their pay
(they're reportedly asking for $8 million per season, triple what they made
before), but I hope the show sticks around if they can sustain the level of
this latest episode.
