Viewers who tuned in for The Big Bang Theorys October 25 episode The Imitation Perturbation" were treated to more than the story arc of the week, namely the feuds surrounding couples impersonating each other for Halloween. Those who watched until the very last second may have noticed a very political "vanity card" for Chuck Lorres Productions that blasted President Trump as "a fascist, hate-filled, fear-mongering, demagogic, truth-shattering, autocratic golf cheater."
Placed between the finals credits and Warner Bros. logo, the vanity card remained on screen for under three seconds.
Chuck Lorre Productions, #598
My Prayer
God, (I call you that even though I suspect thou art well beyond names and words and might actually be some sort of ineffable quantum situation), I humbly beseech thee to make thy presence known on November 6th. Demonstrate your omnipotence through us as we make ink marks on little circles in curtained booths. Of course if you, in your divine wisdom, believe a fascist, hate-filled, fear-mongering, demagogic, truth-shattering, autocratic golf cheater is what we need right now, then, you know, thy will be done. But if thou art inclined to more freedom, more love, more compassion, and just more of the good stuff thou hath been promoting in our hearts or our parietal lobes - either one, doesnt really matter - I submissively ask that thy encourage voter turnout in that general direction. Also God, please help Bob Mueller. Guide him and make him strong, brave, wise and true. And yes, I know there must be thousands of guys named Bob Mueller, so why not help them all, just to be on the safe side. Amen.
Oh, almost forgot, remind those who collaborate with the darkness that thou art the light, and the light is not above whipping out a little Old Testament wrath. Amen again.

Whether your beliefs are with Christianity or not...the prayer really hits home with not just words but with cred from the producer of an award winning tv sitcom but with its accuracy and boldness..

(60,536 posts)The consensus of Forum Hosts agrees:
NewsBusters is styled as a rapid-response blog site that contains posts by MRC (Media Research Center) editors to selected stories in mass media. Although the site is advertised chiefly as a conservative site, it frequently defends Neoconservatives as well. This is not a reputable mainstream media news site/blog. Also, opinions expressed in the closing credits of television programs are not important news of national interest but, they are opinions and as such, do not belong in the LBN Forum
