Just how much does Sesame Street merchandise make every year???

[ColdOne]

Your right Ma’am!

[BelegStrongbow]

Californians, please notice that your junior senator has the intellectual capacity of a first grader.

[skeeter]

For a person of her age, Boxer seems inordinarily vexed about this.

At least Big Bird is safe this time, Babs.

[bareford101]

once we found out that Elmo was a socialist! all about distractions!

[databoss]

Hey Boxer...as a taxpayer that has funded Elmo Inc for the last thirty years I sure would like to see my cut of the merchandising royalties from all PBS related programs!

[WKUHilltopper]

Boxer...don’t you love us? Aren’t you fighting for us? You’re rich enough—redistribute your wealth and pay for it for us. Surely you’re just this compassionate. Write the check, wench! Don’t be an Oscar.

Sesame Street is a horrible show who's time has come. Its humor is mostly based off promoting outdated stereotypes and making fun of the less fortunate.

Poor Ernie is trapped in an abusive gay relationship with Bert.

The Cookie Monster has an eating disorder.

The Count suffers from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

Oscar wouldn't be such a Grouch if they didn't make the homeless live in garbage cans on Sesame street.

Her abortion policy has been so successful that the Elmo fan population has dropped to a ‘special interest “ group we can no longer subsidize

[silverleaf]

It’s not Elmo, it’s Miss Piggy, who reminds me entirely too much of Babs “yes-ma’am” Boxer

[joe fonebone]

No, we just think that elmo can support himself...

[Maceman]

Elmo gets on my nerves. I much prefer his cousin, Tickle Me Emo.

[Tex-Con-Man]

[Paladin2]

Elmo is smarter than Boxer. They both need to be defunded.

[Signalman]

I’m so proud to live in a state where one Senator (Feinstein) is a lib, but is semi-rational, and the other (Boxer) who is a blithering leftist idiot.

[Billthedrill]

The Sesame Workshop, formerly the Children’s Television Workshop, is a separate entity from PBS and is essentially self-supporting through a separate donor system and product licensing. In short, Babs is full of it. But we knew that.

[Snickering Hound]

"You better refer to me as 'Senator' more than just in the title and opening sentence!"

[bert]

Whew..... Bert is off the hook

[USS Alaska]

Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said Tuesday that House Republicans want to strip government funding of PBS because they have a "vendetta against Elmo."

Just let this little puppet go on his own, and Elmo will make more money than anyone at pbs can spend.

Now, the nightly news with some asshole that sounds like he came from England, he'll be gone.

"Hey, Babs: I'm the one who nailed the little bastard. What're ya gonna do about it?"
