No Love for Big Bird

I'm still trying to recover from last night's first presidential debate.  What a disappointment!  Not only was it boring, but Obama seemed to be asleep at the wheel and Jim Lehrer was awful.  They should have let Gwen Ifill moderate.  I'm sure she would have done a better job of keeping the candidates on point.  But even more disappointing than Obama's performance was Mittens bashing PBS and Big Bird. What???  I highly doubt the public funds PBS receives will make a dent in the booming deficit.  Still, this is what Mittens focuses on for cuts.  Right.  PBS is one of the few great public television stations and they show a diverse array of programs.  I grew up watching Sesame Street and the thought of cutting funding for a show that helps so many children learn is just a travesty.  Shame on you, Mittens!  Big Bird should give Mittens a big beatdown!
