Using Big Bird to avoid issues backfires on Obama

"After all, Washington gives the Corporation for Public Broadcasting only about $450 million a year, with about $15 million ultimately going to PBS.?"

Which is $450 million/$15 million too much.

The Government cannot be allowed to support television, radio or any other media. Look what that's gotten us: he who has the gold rules.

The Kenyan must go.

Since Obama is willing to do the heavy lifting of protecting Big Bird, the least that we, the voters, can do is GIVE OBAMA THE BIRD, early and often.

Team Obama objected that moderator Jim Lehrer let the candidates respond to one another too much and drill too deep on topics. The telling moment was Obama's plea: "Jim, you may want to move on to another topic." Obama suffered because the debate got too freewheeling and substantive.

When Obama tells the New York Times boys to 'move on' they have the courtesy to ask 'how fast, Master?'.

Lehrer lacks the proper knee pad mentality...old school and all...

And the ABC moderator? She won't have to be asked - if it's getting rough for her BFF Obama she'll 'move on' all my herself. Nope, she won't have to be asked. Nice that the commission chose all liberals for the moderators... I'm sure if they chose four conservatives we'd hear crickets too..
