Rush Limbaugh and Karl Rove to Appear on "Family Guy"

"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane has revealed that talk-show host Rush Limbaugh, former Bush strategist Karl Rove and other famous Republicans will play themselves in an upcoming episode of the show, set to debut next season.

In the episode, the Griffins' liberal dog, Brian, gets bored and frustrated because he feels he no longer has anything to complain about with Barack Obama in the White House. In order to once again be the underdog, Brian becomes a Republican and starts listening to Rush Limbaugh (who, apparently, also sings a song).

"'Family Guy' tends to be very liberal because it's written by liberals," MacFarlane said. "So we thought let's give the other side some face time. So we put it out there to a lot of Republicans -- 'we're doing this show, who wants in?' -- and we got some bites. I'm sure the reaction from some will be 'you monsters, how could you have Karl Rove on your show?'
