The producers behind HBO's "Game of Thrones" would've been better off had they simple said what is likely the truth, that they hate George W. Bush and impaled his prosthetic head on a pole for the kind of childish shits and giggles the Secret Service might want to look into. Instead, they offer absurd explanations that, in my opinion, only prove what sniveling weasals (sic) they really are:

Hollywood partisanship rears its ugly head
As Obama spreads blame for economic crisis backward , La-La left helps him stick it to Bush 43

HBO was still apologizing for putting a rubberized President George W. Bushhead on a pike in the medieval fantasy show “Game of Thrones”when President Barack Obama put his predecessor’s head on a pike again, blaming Bush for all our problems.
“We can’t afford to jeopardize our future by repeating the mistakes of the past,” Obama said in a speech Thursday. “Not now, not when there is so much at stake. ... Of course, the economy isn’t where it needs to be.”
But the Bush heads were where they needed to be. The HBO version was a rubber one with a wig, and the version used by Obama was purely rhetorical and political.
The “Game of Thrones” controversy started when the show’s creators pointed out that a scene included Bush’s head on a pike — but only because “we just had to use whatever heads we had around.” David Axelrod must have written that on a napkin.

Those producers knew exactly what they were doing. As usual, they didn’t think anyone would notice.
Sounds like time for Equal Time.
Obama heads on stakes EVERYWHERE for Halloween. After all, his policies ARE scary. . .
Congratulations, the search engine worked for you. As you can see none of the article had the same title and none of them turned up on a key word search for HBO.
I’m glad that you are so talented, you should be proud of yourself.
I chose to reserve the things I take offense at to things that actually matter. God knows there are enough of them.
You prefer to get your outrage from the pages of TV magazine.
You seem to be outraged more easily by reposted variations of the same story about tv programs than you are the egregious disrespect of a former president.
You spent quite a bit of time putting together those links.
Have a nice a day.
30 second is a lot of time?
Shouldn't you be reading up on the latest on Justin Bieber or something?
Have a nice whatever.
LOL! You must be a fast typist. I don’t even watch much TV, unlike you. I never heard of your favorite TV show and I don’t know who Justin Bieber is.
I think that you place way too much value on TV if you feel the need to spend the time defending the morons who produced this HBO series.
Like I said, have a nice day. Get out away from your TV.
