Typical Democrat Voter |
From Michelle Malkin: One of the most important issues of the day will be addressed en masse at the National Mall in Washington, DC just three days before the election. Unemployment? No. Massive debt? Negative. Ballooning dependence on government? Nah. Steady decline in middle class income? Nuh-uh. Terrorism? Don’t think so. This will be an event to draw attention to an even bigger problem that could bring an end to America as we know it — or 12 percent of PBS’s funding, whichever comes first: Mitt Romney’s plan to slash federal funding for the home of Sesame Street:
Plans to save Big Bird, the fuzzy yellow character on U.S. public television’s “Sesame Street,” from possible extinction are taking shape in the form of a puppet-based protest next month dubbed the “Million Muppet March.”
The demonstration is planned for November 3 at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., three days before the general election.
Before the presidential debate between Democratic President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney had concluded on October 3, two men who had never met each floated the Million Muppet March idea on social media. They immediately united to defend public broadcasting.
Romney pledged during the debate to end the U.S. federal government’s subsidy for the Public Broadcasting Service despite his professed love for Big Bird, one of the characters on PBS’s 43-year-old children’s educational program “Sesame Street,” which features the Muppets. http://michellemalkin.com/2012/10/13/million-muppet-march/
The fact that these clowns, err, Muppets, are holding a political rally just before election ought to be enough reason to cut off funding to Sesame Street and PBS.
But there is no reason why the U.S. taxpayer should be paying money to PBS or NPR. They have money rolling in and not hurting for money. They have pledge drives to help supplement the income of these 2 organizations.
Further, PBS and NPR directly compete against private business and that's wrong. The government should not be competing against private business unless it is a fair playing field.
And by the way, guess who owns the Muppets? Why it's Disney. Why should the taxpayer be giving money to Disney?
So, to the ungrateful Muppets who will be marching: you ought to be thanking the U.S. taxpayer for all the money you have been given the past several decades, but instead, we have a bunch of ungrateful Muppets who have nothing but air and stuffing in their heads. Just like a Joe Biden and Crybaby/Coward Harry Reid.
