    "It's not a choice, not a political statement!" one of the writers say during the commentary. "We just had to use what heads we had around."
    The producing duo released their own apology: "We use a lot of prosthetic body parts on the show: heads, arms, etc. We can't afford to have these all made from scratch, especially in scenes where we need a lot of them, so we rent them in bulk. After the scene was already shot, someone pointed out that one of the heads looked like George W. Bush. In the DVD commentary, we mentioned this, though we should not have. We meant no disrespect to the former President and apologize if anything we said or did suggested otherwise."

    It's good enough of an explanation for me.
