Veiled Ron Paul reference in The Simpsons Movie?

[rajibo]

So I just got back from "The Simpson's Movie" and there is a scene where Springfield is covered in a giant dome. The townspeople are trying to break through it, but Ralph Wiggum is trying to use bubbles to break it. He blows a bubble at the dome, it hits it, bounces back and hit's Ralph in the nose.

Ralph says "Blowback!":p

*** out of ****

haha!

But, have you ever considered you might need to take a break from political watch for a while? :p

I rather doubt it, since they made the movie before he became popular. ;) But it's really good that they're popularizing the term. That may help lead people to Ron Paul.

And hey! How was the movie?

Yeah, Yeah I know. It's a sickness.:o

I picked up on the blowback reference immediately. I also loved the references to the NSA, etc. Because of this movie, I have new found respect for Matt Groening. :D

Pretty sure Ron Paul didn't exactly invent the term 'blowback'.

[mdh]

Wasn't the term blowback coined by the CIA agent who said so all along?

If Ralph Wiggum understands the concept of blowback I want to know why it is so difficult for a lot of other people.

(And yes, when I watched The Simpsons at 12:01 on opening night as soon as I heard this reference I thought of Ron Paul.)
