1. I Used To Like Amy... But Someone Around Here (Now Banned)
used to have Amy as her avatar. The whole show is ruined for me now.

6. I wondered what had happened to her!
I kind of miss her and her avatar

there was a naive quality to her comments, but she seemed like a nice person.... (although quite blunt)

why was she banned?... I missed it

7. Started with a "K"?
Yep, I was wondering that myself. I liked her and never had any problems with her personally (as far as I know). It seemed that she disappeared suddenly.

15.  yes, I recall a post of hers
that was bluntly worded in regard to a particular religious perspective... I don't know if that was what did it or not. I don't think she intended to offend anyone. But it may have been more than that. I kind of miss her youthful perspective on things.

4. My take on Futurama (minus a robotic Nixon)
Fry: Never votes although he did once "send those clowns a message by staying home and dressing up like a clown."

Leela: D Classic liberal

Farnsworth: R - Remember he is a big NRA supporter doesn't want to see the mad scientists loose their doomsday device rights

Bender: D although he could be swayed at times by independents that support the radical robot separatist platform

Zoidberg: 3rd Party well at least he goes to their meetings

Amy: see Fry or Paris Hilton

Hermes: D Hermes is pro big government of course.... for the filing

Scruffy: Scruffy's gonna die how he lived.....

Anyhow...
Zap Brannigan-R (officer in space Navy)
Kiff-D (hates officers, especially above)
Slurmms McKenzie-D (just a figurehead)
Leonard Nimoy's head-D (Hollywood, even in the afterbody)
Inhabitants of the undersea empire of Atlanta-R,( they hate water breathing suppositories)
The Reverend Rockola- D (Loudmouth New York jukebox...defending Tawanna Sony)
Al (The last one eyed guy from a planet that looks Roman)-R
Nipper-D (will eat all Rs this election)

Amy-"How do you like my swim suit?"
Farnsworth-"You look like a cheap French Harlot!"

8. The political parties in Futurama world are:
Tastycrats, Fingerlicans, One Cell One Vote, Green Party, Brain Slug Party, Dudes for the legilisation of Hemp, Bull Space Moose Party, National Raygun Association (NRA), People for the Ethical Treatment of Humans, Voter Apathy Party, Anti-Socialists, Rainbow Whigs

Hermes was a partisan of the Brain Slugs, Fry of the Voter Apathy party, and I think that was all that was really clarified.

10. It was a great episode...
I love when Nixon sings "White Rabbit"....

"I'm meeting you hippies half way!"

I also liked the later episode where Nixons VIP is shown to be Spiro Agnew without a head, who is basically a thug who growls like Frankenstein.

Adult Swim has brought Family Guy back into production, I hope to hell it does the same for Futurama.
