Big Bird of Sesame Street as a "Birther"?

Watch this satire edit video with Big Bird as a right-winger who goes on a mini-tirade against Michelle Obama during her new appearance on Sesame Street. It's short and hysterical.



Only problem is that the backwards Right-wingers and Birthers just nod and applaud Big Bird -- they don't know it's satire. So, that's my problem with satire as political art. It very often fails to actually educate or expose. It can just look like the artist is making the same statement as the character being satirized.
