Good News: Obama Regime Spending $20 Million in Taxpayer Money to Remake Sesame Street. . . In Pakistan…
Episode 1: Bert and Ernie victims of dual honor killing for being gay.
(BBC) — The United States is funding a Pakistani remake of the popular TV children’s show Sesame Street.
In a new effort to win hearts and minds in Pakistan, USAID — the development arm of the US government — is donating $20m (£12m) to the country to create a local Urdu version of the show.
The project aims to boost education in Pakistan, where many children have no access to regular schooling.
The show is to be filmed in Lahore and aired later in the year.
“The programme is part of a series of ventures that is aimed at developing the educational infrastructure in the country,” Virginia Morgan, a spokesperson for USAID, told the BBC.
“Education is one of the vital sectors that need help in Pakistan.”
The show will be set in a village in Pakistan — rather than the streets of New York — with roadside tea shop and residents sitting on their verandas.
The remake will star a puppet called Rani, the six-year-old daughter of a peasant farmer, with pigtails and a school uniform, according to Britain’s Guardian newspaper.

That should last until the first fatwa.
First episode – Big Bird demonstrates the art of suicide belt making. Second episode – Bert beheads Ernie.
This won’t last a month…..a “female” for the star?????
How UNISLAMIC!!!!!!!!
The producers will be beheaded, the women stoned to death and the audience forced to listen to Arlo Guthrie for days on end…..
If Pakistan needs this kind of education (entertainment), let them pay for it themselves and we can use the money to build a fence on our southern border.
In the fifth episode, Cookie Monster gets murdered by a Zionist.
Will Rani have to wear a burqa or head scarf? Will Cookie Monster belt out “la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la” before he attacks an unsuspecting cookie?
I hestitate to say this administration is so clueless that no matter what the US does, they’ll hate us no matter what — just like all the muz M.E. countries, but then look at where we’re at financially.
Ogabe’s people know what they’re doing — enslaving us further in debt with this waste of money.
We have to endure the drama of a govt shutdown because we’re out of money and we’re paying for garbage like this. NPR is no doubt rubbing their hands in anticipation of merchandise sales.
This money should be spent on finding/killing Osama bin Laden and all of his little al-Qaeda buddies
The money would be better spent on Reapers and daisy-cutters.
What will be the islamic version of Miss Piggy ????
Great question, Ray!
Hey everyone, I think I just found out where we can cut $20 million from the budget!
And on a more serious note – this is why so many people are upset about last night’s deal. Because you know that if we found this horror in the budget, there are probably a thousand more programs like this – a THOUSAND that could be cut.
Another question. Why is the production cost so high. 20 mill for hand puppets in Stan? Where’s the money really going?
@Iron Maiden – You nailed it!
20 Million to this piece of waste; money to GM; money go GE; money to support the union’s early retirement funds; etc. etc. ……….
…. Because that’s how you brind down your enemy, through the INSIDE. By inserting the liberal, political correctness into a society you will soon “dumb down” the populace into nothing but mindless drones that will allow themselves to be “over-run”.
Hey, it worked over here! It took a little time but the result will be the same for PAK shit istan.
sorry type O …. you “BRING” down your enemy..
You may now continue reading.
Idiots. No matter what we do, or what we give them they are still going to kill us.
Obama thinks he can buy their love.. There can only be Islam NOTHING ELSE.!
Delusional.
They’ll use the Palestinian scripts as their baseline….yeah the one that calls us non-believers apes and pigs…..where they teach little kids to go kill the Joooowws. Do they really think this will help this society of backwards @$$clowns? Not a chance……..Fuckit I say give them Southpark and see how they deal with that……..
Maybe the ghost of the Palestinians’ Farfour the Terrorist Mouse will become a regular character?

Sesame Street has been a tool of the leftist Education for years. Adults who should not breed now rely on television for instruction of their offspring. As the offspring become adults, they go on the Government teat and the circle starts again.
This same amount of money could have been used to hire 100 unemployed, at approx $100,000.00 per year for two years, on contracts in the private sector – working upper level positions in assessing, evaluating, and prioritizing infrastructure projects throughout the country. Twice as many people could have been hired for $50,000.00 per year, for two years, working in programs to tutor our kids, offer mentoring programs, service and maintain the homes of elderly and handicapped citizens, grocery shop for those who are homebound; the list goes on and on.
I CAN NEVER SAY THIS ENOUGH TIMES – I DON’T MIND PAYING TAXES AND WOULD PAY EVEN MORE, IF THERE WERE EVER A WAY TO GUARANTEE THAT OUR HARD EARNED MONEY ISN’T BEING WASTED; FLUSHED DOWN THE TOILET LIKE THERE’S NO TOMORROW, ON IDIOTIC, NONSENSICAL, PROJECTS TO BUY VOTES, OR TO BUY FRIENDSHIP AND RESPECT – ESPECIALLY FROM THOSE WHOSE LIFE REVOLVES AROUND THE GOAL OF CONTROLLING US, OR KILLING US.
THAT –JUST LIKE A BIG TURD – IS CALLED WASTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aren’t puppets un-islamo? They’re going to have to kill them all because moohamhead is a puppet.
Too ridiculous. I see the Oscar the Grouch character becoming the “Islamic morality police” equivalent, beheading the female “lead” character when she tries to go to school, beheading Bert and Ernie for their homosexuality, enslaving Gordon, beheading Big Bird for being a talking animal…it would make sense too, what with the symbol for Islamic virtue being a monster living in a garbage can.
I can see it now, Ernie converts to Islam and saws off Bert’s head.
Flushing money down the toilet.
They might have to create some new muppets, one for a Bacha bazi boy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacch%C3%A1).
They will also have to create a little girl doll for Mufa Khathat (http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2010/01/mufa-khathat-cleaning-mess-up.html), just to keep it “culturally correct” or better yet, “Islamicly Correct”.
Maybe Weiner could get Click and Clack, Car bomb Talk going over there.
They’ll have to change some names…..the “Pita” Monster, “Stone me” Elmo,
“Burqa and Erwani”…..and Miss Piggy will be beheaded in the first episode
to “purify” the cast.
Thie is abolute ridiculous bullshit! What are we doing? I dont care if these cave dwelling dirt monkeys have an education. Can read, write or wipe their own ass! What I care about is the financial condition of my country not these nose picking inbreds in a country which is an enemy. This must be repealled immediately. No excuses.
Welcome to life in the bizzaro world. LOCK AND LOAD AMERICA its coming here soon.
this is a twofer
1. waste lots and lots of money
2. insert the idea that Americans are a bunch of pussies in Pakshitistan’s heads. (as if they didn’t already know)
A Muppet Girl will be easy for them. Just use Black Cloth for the Burka. Why is this costing the United States 20 Million? Is this one of the new NASA projects?
… all this bullshit AFTER Raymond Davis?? FUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCKKKMMK!!!
This is really stupid, but its the best the liberals can do!
Buncha frickin morons … yeah, you guys are really intelligent … real adults!
I’m sure those mad Muslims are really going to be impressed with your maturity.
Were they killed twice?!!?!?!
This makes me sick. We should really look into this and stop it….
surely no one expects “Abu Oumma” to cut “zakat” funds to the beloved country even his own mother lived in
(sure was uncomfortable watching Obama squirm when repeatedly a Pakistani interviewer questioned him on how many times he visited Pakistan)
