Romney's Bird Is Coming Home To Roost!

This big bird "zinger" could be the thing that turned more people off of rmoney. I hope SNL does a skit where rmoney kills bird bird so he can give another tax cut to the rich.

..looks like the logical response for the Romneybots..

Compared to oil subsidies and corporate welfare--Romney still stepped in it by attacking Big Bird... It would not be good for PBS to solely get corporate donations..

I still fondly remember the chicken which followed G.H.W. Bush around and shamed him into debating Clinton in 1992. Particularly when Bush decided to argue with the guy in the chicken suit. Not a good photo op.
