    ‘The Simpsons’ Showrunner Gets Back At George H.W. Bush
    by Denise Petski

    It’s taken 25 years, but The Simpsons‘ showrunner Al Jean finally had
    his chance to return a jab at George H.W. Bush.

    During a speech on family values in 1992, the former president said
    that American families needed to be “a lot more like the Waltons and a
    lot less like the Simpsons”.

    Following recent sexual harassment allegations leveled against 41,
    Jean is now responding.

    In a tweet, Jean jabbed, “.@TheSimpsons I think George HW Bush should
    act more like the Waltons than the Simpsons. #25yearoldgrudge.”
