Kevin, you're going to have to let it go. ;-)
For the third time: I didn't take sides in the Tom and Jerry Show and don't intend to.
Yes, any of us can trawl that particular thread to find snarls and potty-mouthed comments to quote selectively. But the only people responsible for those comments are the two who kept going and going and going rather than letting it go. ;-)
For the rest: whether somebody got an award for promising subversive behavior makes very little difference to my opinions of anything.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
