Fans of PBS darling Big Bird have their feathers ruffled over presidential contender Mitt Romney positively gloating about firing our fuzzy friend because we'll have to borrow his salary from China. They overlook that Romney is a true friend of airborne creatures. Consider his unrelenting support of the war hawks in the Military-Industrial Complex. Romney supported their multi trillion dollar criminal military ventures in Iraq and Afghanistan to the last borrowed nickel. His foreign policy platform includes many billions more for armaments they even they are asking for. He has hired disgraced war hawks from the Bush II Administration like his foreign policy advisor Dan Senor to cheerlead for more criminal war, this time against Iran.
Romney's affinity for winged creatures is understandable. Considering that neither Mitt nor any of his five sons spent a single day in the military, you could say that as a relentless war supporter, he heads up a family of chicken hawks.
