The Democrats might think a 15 TRILLION DOLLAR DEBT is a joke, but I think it alone is reason enough to get rid of them.
The Bird is the Word!!!
Good for you BIG BIRD. Don't let them use you for politial gains.
Big Bird is starting to wear out is welcome.
I have no problem with Big Bird.
Loss of tax-payer subsidies will not result in Big Bird flying the coop. If anything, there will be plenty of private donors who will pick up the slack, and allow BB to continue living.
They can ask Soros for some funding, since he has plenty to throw around ...
big bird can take care of himself. if mpr had his money, they wouldn't need their incessant fundraising crusades. the only bird we need concern ourselves with is the American Eagle!
