I may be a bird-brain, but this bad boy is my revenge against America being too successful!
Speaking of the economy ,in 2008 it was estimated that 77 million Americans had watched Sesame Street as children. That’s about the same number of dollars Mitt Romney has invested in offshore accounts!
They should fire Mr.Swindle for hitting Special Ed Students.
I wish this guy was solar powered.
This is just another one of Mitt Romney’s deceptions to frighten Americans.
Sesame Street depends upon licensing arrangements for their funding. PBS gets most of its funding from private donations and grants. Only about 20% of its revenue comes from the federal government.
Per the 2012 budget, the National Endowment for the Arts gets $161 Million. Compare that to the massive $713 Billion for the Department of Defense!
Somebody tell this guy he needs to get his hand out of my pocket.
You don’t see his lips move, but he is the puppet master and he makes me say all this stuff.
I built this.
“I can only hide from Frankeconomy for so long. This week, I’m dressed as Big Bird! They’ll never find me!”
Don’t worry folks, Sandy, a real job creator, just blew through.
Ok Mitt I was just kidding, I give! You will probably win the election anyway, get this beast away from me!…Help!
” Can you help me save,help me save our Sesame Street?”
“Can you help me stay,help me stay on Pennsylvania Street?”
I’ve created a monster and now the Bird and I are an
endangered species. Help us!
ok kids
Todays word is Deflect
If Romney gets elected all three of us will be endangered.
“To prove he doesn’t scare me, I’m going to flip him the bird.”
This guy’s head may be bolted on but as we go forward he’ll end up a frankenweenie.
Think there are too many interruptions now? After Romneystein, PBS will become the Pledge Break System.
“I’ll have a better chance of survival at Chick-fil-A.”
I’m Big Bird and I approve this message.
Welcome to my world. Won’t you be my neighbor?
I’m flying south, before he falls flat on his face.
When I agreed to this Halloween debate, I was told we both had to wear costumes. So why isn’t Gov. Romney wearing one?
Wait, never mind. His vague plans for America are scary enough!
With this Halloween debate, I finally understand why Mitt’s math doesn’t add up. His brain is ruthlessly abnormal!
I believe this Halloween debate has exposed that the real Mitt Romney is just a patchwork of flip-flopping Republican body parts created to deceive American voters!
If you elect Mitt Romney here, he and his running mate, little Eddie Munster, will be like a “Frankenstorm” on the American middle class!
Don’t be scared kids, in the end I kill him.
It took me four years to find the parts to build this monster…and IT’S ALIVE!! It may not be pretty, and it moves a little slow, but IT’S ALIVE!!
Do you really want this Wall Street guy in charge?
The European version is always the scary one.
We’ve been taking it in the Snuffleupagus.
I did not have economic relationships with that monster.
Read my lips, no new bailouts.
He’s so ugly, only a Murtha could love him.
They call me Dr. Funkenstein, because the economy’s all funked up.
I did the mash,
I did the bailout mash,
It was a smash…
Can you tell me how to get to Wall Street?
He was really dead four years ago.
Frankie, my dear, I never gave a damn.
Only a real bird brain would blame P.B.S. for creating this monster!
When I flew into office in 2008 this guy was dead! Now it’s alive, it’s alive!
He could scare you out of four years growth.
I’ve got a much better chance of bringing him back from the dead than Romney!
Hey Bernanke should have to wear a costume too.
Looks like The Federal Reserve did turn our economy into a monster.
He’s slowing down…where’s the solar power???
Romney wants to blame this big “fowl” up on me and Big Bird!
“I had no idea my rotten egg would hatch into this.”
“I won’t let that monster belittle Big Bird.”
“Who created that monster? Big Bird, or the large Elephant in the room?
This guy’s cramping my style-
Joe, pull the plug on him once and for all!
This message is brought to you by the letters G O N E, and the numbers 1/20/2013.
You want me to say it’s the
“ECONOMY STUPID!?” I don’t think so..
Today’s episode is brought to you by the word “deficit.”
Hey! This big galloot kicked me in my giblets.
or
This is supposed to be Sesame Street; not Mr Obama’s Neighborhood!
or
I didn’t build that!
or
This is definitely not optimal.
or
That’s some bump in the road.
one, two buckle my shoe
three, four out the door
