I can see Big Bird walking into Mr Hooper's store, all eyes upon him. He walks to the counter and says: Schlitz.

Oh, you gotta be farkin' shiatting me.

This is the best you got, GOP? This? Really?

Jesus Hussein Kreist, you guys are well and truly farked in November.

Awesome plan, Willard.
Here's an idea: start selling ad space on fighter jets and battleships to fund the military.

what a farking pandering piece of garbage. what's the federal outlay for PBS? a hundred thousandth of the budget? jesus farking christ, willard, you farking shape-shifting piece of filth, how about reducing defense? how about oil subsidies?
 
2011-12-28 08:12:42 PM
Why that will fix 0.0001% of the Federal budget. By Republican logic, because this single handedly will not fix the deficit, it should not be done.

Right?

Of course Republicans hate public broadcasting. It has objectivity and balance requirements in the funding law.

Why stop there? How about on the coffins of dead servicemen and women? That's a lot of blank space.

We should just sell some ad space on the American flag.

Ask Mitt how he feels about the cost of the F-35 program going from about $150 billion to $280 billion before a single plane is delivered. I would love to know how he feels about that.

Mr. Romney, your bowl of dicks is warming in the microwave.

Mitt would whore out his mother then throw her off a bridge when she complained about her sore pussy. He would fire his kids and contract the relationship overseas.

My kids watch PBS exclusively because we don't feel like paying for cable and no other networks carry anything comprable to the quality of children's programming on PBS. When she does see cable TV at a friend's house, my 4-yr old spends the first half of the show wondering why they keep interrupting her show and the second half drooling over the g-damned crap they advertise in kids shows.

Kinda feel like showing Mitt and his friends what children's television commercials are like, Clockwork Orange style.

I wish they went commercial-free with their cable channel Sprout. That channel is the bomb, except for the occasional Montel Williams ad asking you to go to Money Mutual.
 
2011-12-28 11:20:14 PM
Well Mitt, like any other politician has been bought and paid for by the corporations and a television channel without commercials just will not stand.
 
2011-12-28 11:50:34 PM
You know, the money Mitt is saving from having to compete in the Virginia primary would probably be enough to pay for PBS.

Are you telling me that all that Sesame street merchandise doesn't pay for itself? Who is getting rich selling Tickle Me Elmos?

That won't fix anything and will make children dumber.

Benevolent Misanthrope: Jesus Hussein Kreist, you guys are well and truly farked in November.

Yeah, I'm thinkin the 52% reelect on Intrade means basically free doubling of your money in 10 months. I said the same thing about Romney winning the GOP nom when he was at 45% and everyone was shiatting their pants about Gingrich possibly winning Iowa and getting the mo.

This election will be like 1996 Clinton vs Dole. A bunch of noise and heat and coverage, but basically everyone knows what the result will be.

If I knew where to find a screen-cap of "World War III: Brought to you by Bud Light and Hooters" from Southland Tales, I would post it here.

Doesn't PBS get most of its funding from donations anyway?

Advertisements undo everything Sesame Street does.

Umm... how about NO, Mittens? At the very least, PBS is one of the last few places I can go for semi-intelligent to intelligent programing without someone screaming, "buy, BUY, BUY!!1!1!eleventy!!1" at me every few minutes.

Oh wait, that's exactly what you and the rest of the subhuman filth that make up the Republican Party want- dumb me down, keep me buying useless crap, so that way your corporate sponsors will keep stuffing your pockets with cash while they stuff your arse through your magic underpants. You've already farked with my state. Don't think you can fark with the rest of them so soon. EABOD, you anti-American trash.

ilikeracecars: Are you telling me that all that Sesame street merchandise doesn't pay for itself? Who is getting rich selling Tickle Me Elmos?

Well, the majority of the profits from licensed Sesame Street items go to the non-profit Sesame Workshop (formerly the Children's Television Workshop), which helps pay for the costs of producing the program.
 
2011-12-29 12:03:25 AM
Let's drag out this red herring again. Like the $1.50 per person for PBS is the source of all our budgetary woes.
 
2011-12-29 12:03:48 AM
How do Republicans manage to get anything done with all of the time they spend on their knees, sucking corporate cock?

Disgraceful motherfarkers.

"I like PBS," Romney told a town hall in Clinton, Iowa Wednesday. "We subsidize PBS. Look, I'm going to stop that."

So, in fact, you don't like PBS, you bottom-feeding simpleton. You want another vector for the toxic shiat you and your piece of trash ilk constantly inject into our farking eyeballs every goddamned day.

And this guy is the "moderate". I'd call them human trash but I wouldn't want to give anyone the idea that they were worth as much as the contents of my wastebin.

Well, considering that President Obama's right-wing ass is considered liberal here in the States, that does in fact make Romney a "moderate."

He's also a mouthbreathing sucktard who takes it in the ass from his corporate masters. Moderately.

Why would Mittens want force America's fine and noble corporations to fraternize with the socialist, fascist, communist subversives in PBS?

The thing is the Sesame Street crew already figured this out and did it years ago. That's why you haven't heard the rabble rousing about it, they are their own enterprise now and make bank.

NPR needs to do the same and kick the fascists in the nuts.
