No more Big Bird????


     I see that people actually watched the debate last week. Unfortunately, they where not paying attention to well. Not too many people noticed that the two candidates agreed with each other on a lot of topics. They were focused on Mitt Romney saying he would cut funding for PBS. Romney wants to "kill Big Bird!!!!!" What a national nightmare, forget the millions out of work or the wars we are in, we need to save a guy in a bird suit. We are $16 trillion in debt but Elmo's got to get paid. The people of America are so worked up about this that they are........ complaining about this on Facebook and Twitter but not calling their PBS station to donate money. This is a prime example of a problem we have in America, we want our causes but we want someone else to pay for it.
     Our politicians for years have told us that they believed in what ever cause we cared for and that they will take care of it. The reality is they get somebody else to pay for it or run up the federal credit card. Just take care of the problem as long as you don't ask us to sacrifice. I don't know anybody that doesn't say they care for the homeless but are any of them at a Habitat for Humanity site a 7am hauling lumber. I bet a lot of you PBS fans are anti-war people. How do you like your tax dollars going for drones and bombs? If your a Vegan would you like to know your taxes went to promote the beef industry? Then why is it OK for you to force the government to use the resources they taxed from me just so your kids will be entertained? This is also a reason why we need to get somethings out of the government hands. If the "Public" actually fully funded PBS, then you wouldn't have to worry about who got elected. You say you care, then click the link below and donate.
