South Park Parodies Al Gore

Tonight's episode of South Park was an entertaining parody of Al Gore and the anti-Global Warming message he has been promoting.  The episode stars a South Park version of Al Gore warning of the impending doom that will be caused by the ManBearPig (part man, part bear, part pig) which will be ravaging South Park any second if the townspeople don't do something about it soon.  The townspeople of South Park insist that there is no evidence that the ManBearPig existed and they therefore have nothing to fear.  In typical South Park fashion, the episode pulls few punches in its sometimes subtle, sometimes less so, commentary on Al Gore's quest to rid the world of the ManBearPig ... or rather ... Global Warming.  Funny stuff.  Or is it?
