During his October 3 debate against Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, in describing how he would curtail government spending if elected president, told PBS moderator Jim Lehrer “I’m sorry Jim, I’m gonna stop the subsidy to PBS, I like PBS, I love Big Bird, I actually like you too, but I am not going to keep spending money on things to borrow money from China to pay for.”
