Big Bird Blasts Obama " Take Me out of Your Attack Ad

This article is brought to you by the letter P ... as in Sesame Street is PISSED that Barack Obama used Big Bird in an anti-Romney attack ad without permission!

In case you haven't seen it ... Team Obama released the ad following the debate, in which they mock Mitt Romney's vow to cut off government funding to PBS. The ad portrays Big Bird as an enemy of America who towered over criminals like Bernie Madoff and Ken Lay.

But Big Bird isn't laughing ... and neither is Ernie, Bert, Oscar or Elmo (and that dude laughs at EVERYTHING) ... claiming Team Obama never asked for permission before using the Sesame Street character.

In fact, Sesame Workshop released a statement saying, "We have approved no campaign ads, and as is our general practice, have requested that the ad be taken down."

SW also explains, "Sesame Workshop is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization and we do not endorse candidates or participate in political campaigns."

Obama's camp says they have heard Sesame Street's complaints and will be reviewing SS's concerns.

Just a Thought :

This commercial is excellent. Sad that Sesame Street is forced to say they didn't approve of this .

This Big Bird stuff has been blown way out of proportion. Romney said he wanted to cut funding to PBS so that we don't have to keep borrowing money from China if we don't have to. I guess some people don't understand our situation with China and would like to focus on the fact that sesame street wouldn't be getting its funding from the government.

 Big Bird is not the spokesperson for the democratic party.

This is one of the dumbest moves I've seen a politician make.... Other than almost everything George W. did.When they know very well they may all be looking at the end.
