The desperation, it reeks! Like the bottom of a big, dirty birdcage! The sign itself is absurd: President Obama hearts the Wall Street bailouts and he’s certainly chummy with all the Goldman Sachs people in his administration. But, hey, just slap some nonsense onto a sign and send Big Bird out. It can’t be worse than sending out Biden, can it? It’s panic mode time!
The DNC is joining Stephanie “Stefanocchio” Cutter and the always absurd “Truth Team” in breathlessly touting Big Bird as the most pressing issue of our time. They really think this is an issue on which to campaign! The fact that “Sesame Street” actually is doing just fine is of no consequence. They have nothing left. Plus, you know, they aren’t able to ever put on their big boy pants. So, this kind of makes sense in that regard.

Big Bird vs. Big Banks MT "@DomenicoNBC: Obama: Romney wants to let Wall St "run wild" but "going to bring down the hammer on Sesame Street"

Oh, sweeties. Move aside and let the grown-ups get things done. Hint: This does not include President Obama, who also seems to think that setting his laser-like focus on Big Bird and Elmo is the path to victory.
POTUS: “Gov. Romney plans to let Wall Street run wild again, but he’s bringing the hammer down on Sesame Street.”

President Obama: "Thank goodness somebody is finally getting tough on Big Bird."

He found that one so awesome, he repeated it at a rally today.
President Obama: “For all you moms and kids out there, don’t worry—someone is finally getting tough on Big Bird. Elmo, too.”

Chants of "PBS, PBS" and cries of "Big Bird!" Obama responds: "Elmo's got to watch out too!"

If that’s his voice, no wonder we are in such a mess. Happy warriors on Twitter call this idiocy out for what it is.
Obama's performance was SO WEAK that liberals have to latch onto BIG BIRD to salvage any semblance of victory….

Even the Obama Campaign's stupid Big Bird attack line isn't based in reality: http://t.co/gjyVUryr

The Obama Camp is really counting on Big Bird to save them? Makes sense. Most of their Campaign has been based on fiction.

Thank God Obama is keeping the important issue of Big Bird on the forefront today. It's SO important. *snort*

When Obama said #1 fed govt role is safety of all Americans, he was talking about Big Bird, not Ambassadors

Bingo.
And, who was that mystery man in the Big Bird costume? This Twitter user has the answer.
