NSFW Warning: Racist terms within, naturally. This contains a tasteless spoof of Archie Bunker.
In the early '70s, Mad Magazine did their parody on the show "All in the Family" calling it "Gall in the Family Fare". At one point, they recorded an audio version of this and put it on an old flexi-disc record as a bonus insert in a special issue. This record is a rarity and it hasn't seen the light of day since 1973.
Archie Bunker's character says a lot of horrible ethnic slurs. They actually did that in the old show and they weren't like that off the show in real life. They were just trying to point out how stupid it is to be prejudiced by having a fictional character say those things so he can sound like an idiot to be funny.
Matt Stone and Trey Parker even said that Cartman on South Park was based on Archie Bunker.

Vote as you must. But this was a classic bit from my yoots. Indeed, tasteless. Indeed, Mad Magazine. This issue came with a tiny flexible vinyl record inside so you could play it on your turntable again and again.

Awesome... 5*s! I only wish I had this flexi disc for my own record player! (Yep, I'm old enough to remember flexi diskc...)
My favorite was, "I may run for President. Or better still...Vice President." That's where the real power is...
If only we could have had Hitler on TV. Oh wait, we already have one...and he's wants to give us public healthcare.
Hey-oh!

Re: MAD Magazine: Gall in the Family Fare
Tasteless? This is right up my alley. The makers even tried to offer me the role of Hitler's pet wolf.
