Obama's desperate, dumb 'Big Bird' ad
Yael T. AbouhalkahMaking fun of Mitt Romney’s attack on PBS and Big Bird makes sense for President Barack Obama.
But the ad doing that ought to be fun to watch.
This one, up today from Obama’s campaign, smacks of desperation by the president’s forces, who are still reeling from his horrible debate performance last week.
No wonder the Sesame Workshop is requesting that it be taken down.
Let’s face it: If Obama had done a better job attacking the problem adults on Wall Street - the ones mentioned in the ad - then this attempt at humor with Big Bird would make more sense.

7 months, 1 week ago0 cannot talk about his record and the Middle East is ablaze, so he resorts to this type of nonsense.
Why should we borrow money from China to fund PBS, which should compete with the other tv channels just like everyone else. Why should PBS suck off the govt. teat when jimmy ii has a deficit of over 1 trillion???
I’m guessing some lib who is soooooooooooooo smart can ‘plain this……

Look at it this way. Obama spent about 500 million dollars on building a perception of his opponent that was destroyed in 90 minutes.
He has nothing else.
