The enemy of my enemy is… a puppet
Imagine this – teenage boys, puppets having sex, and Miranda Devine. Yes, Miranda has been to see Team America World Police and she loved it.
Devine and the creators of ‘Team America’ have something in common. Both whip up publicity by pissing people off. Devine didn’t mind when Matt and Trey ridiculed Mel Gibson and ‘The Passion of the Christ.’ According to Devine South Park’s ‘The Passion of the Jew‘ was "viciously anti-Gibson"… which presumably is good because it shows how successfully Mel is pissing people off and generating more coverage for Jesus.
One person who isn’t happy is Team America’s director Matt Stone. "It was the worst time of my entire life – I never want to see a puppet again," he told The Sun Online. "It ruined all the serious relationships in my life. You just become a different person, get completely stressed out and don’t pay attention to anything else."
"You work 20 hours a day, take sleeping pills to go to bed and drink coffee to stay up. You feel like a piece of shit, none of your friends like you, your parents don’t like you, but you have a movie at the end"… and a Miranda Devine column.

Well, I think she’s hot.
given the trend of recent comment threads about columnists, is it time for a troppo contest on which oz op/ed writer is the biggest hottie? reasons to be given. anyone?
I have a thing for ABC journos Leigh Sales, Lisa Millar, Nada Gilmore and Emma Griffiths. They’re hotties.
First person to say that Team America is pro-Republican will be beaten with a puppet arm ;)
you polyamorous then, TimT?
She never delves too deep, does Miranda?
(start irony) Hands up all those who think Mirande Devine has a clue about counter-culture? (end irony)
…………Or indeed anything?
**puts hand up**
Incredibly subversive: Devine
Don Arthur at Troppo has already had a stab at the latest lamentable Devine rant, but there is more bilge to divulge.
After spewing some old bolus about how Team America is somehow a sign of “counter-culture”, she turns her attention to The Incre…
