MSLSD host Chris Matthews and Democrat strategist Bob Shrum discussed the Obama camp’s Big Bird ad this afternoon. Neither liked it. Matthews called it “Mickey Mouse.”

I love this ad, it’s actually kind of funny, but it reeks of dem desperation. Honestly, it reminds me of an SNL skit…keep it up Obama campaign, surely this won’t make people believe you’re a joke at all. LOL.
My thought exactly. However, you can’t play the hah-hah card unless you’re way ahead.
Or you’re ahead so far in a sunless location you don’t you’re behind.
I guess the only portion of the debate that Obama was awake for, hit on a topic where he actually shows up, watching Sesame Street.
Since he doesn’t attend intel briefings, he is restricted to talking about cartoon shows, The View, Pimp with a Limp, Letterman and JazZ concerts. On actually producing a budget or responding to al-Qaeda murders on our soil..not so much.
Depth of a Thimble is appropriate for his base, but losing the military by 40 pts, indies by double digits means all this Daffy Ducking of real issues might, just might, come at a cost.
If this pathetic ad doesn’t convince you that the Dems are desperate, unimaginative, pitching into the dirt and using every possible slime tactic to divert attention away from their catastrophic, epically inept record, then you are obviously in a coma.
That ad will go down in history as being the most retarded attempt to sway public opinion. May God have mercy on Barack Obama next month because the electorate will certainly not.
The sad facts are that PBS doesn’t need tax dollars. That Sesame Workshop alone takes in $350M. That makes the $450M PBS gets seem like chump change. I’m sure when you add in all the shows and the merchandise, PBS does not need our money.
That is what is broken in our budget. So much waste jealously guarded by lobbies. The bridge to nowhere, the constant rebuilding of the same highway in my state in order to spend money on construction, leaving the lights on to satisfy the lawyers (as one gentleman pointed out to me tonight), upgrading stuff to spend money before it is de-obligated and returned — so much waste. I’ve been in one form or another of Government job all my life. I have seen constant waste. Government is too big to be efficient.
Regarding Big Bird, Elmo, and the gang: If they are well loved, they will be funded privately. I’ve given before. I guess they’ll no longer be around when cute furry Muppets are not needed to propagandize children.
Despite what Shrum says, that dopey ad is showing up frequently in Northern Virginia. Someone is putting it on the air.
Well….I guess it takes a Mickey Mouse President to campaign on Big Bird!
I Died So That Big Bird & Co Could Live!

UPDATED with “fun facts” on Sesame Workshop, PBS, and CPB to silence even the most rabid defender.
Who’s next, Barney endorsing the Democratic ticket?
Romney’s campaign team should whisper to the legacy media that Obama’s Big Bird campaign is really hurting Romney and that they wish they would try to change the subject.
Where was Corzine?
Am I a bad person for so enjoying Chris Matthews’ lamentations?
