Chef Jim Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Now the kids are responding... http://www.huffingto..._n_1940400.html From a friend on FB regarding her daughter: If you thought ____________ was fired up before you should have seen her face just now when I explained a drawing of Big Bird on the back of someone's car saying "'O' is for 'Obama'."

TakeYouToTasker Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 That's absolutely hysterical. I can't believe they wasted campaign funds producing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, Romney and Ryan are ratcheting up the rhetoric on the Benghazi debacle. Twitter comment from ABC's Rick Klein: @rickklein: so Romney marches toward Benghazi, while the president marches down Sesame Street? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn James Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 A PRESIDENTIAL campaign doesnt know enough to skip using a trademarked figure? Seeing as they've done exactly jack stevestojan about China ripping trademarks/copyright... I'd say Team Obama just doesn't know the law, or care to enforce the law.

Au contraire. Children's Television Workshop being the adults in the dialog says it even better. Serious question...yes, the Obama campaign is clearly focused on trivialities and hasn't the first clue about trademark infringement (unsurprising, since the administration's recognition of "private property" is at best tenuous.) But if the Romney campaign were to use this commercial themselves in one of their own ads as an example of how utterly juvenile and clueless the Obama administration is...would the Big Bird clips fall under "fair use" in demonstrating the trademark infringement?
