The phenomenally liberal writers at Children's Television Workshop went far beyond comedy with this sketch. They're teaching porous little minds about how laudable it is to redistribute cookies...which will soon be extrapolated to hard-earned INCOME. Yay!

When our eldest daughter saw this on Sesame Street all those years ago, she turned to us and said, "That isn't right. Ernie thinks he should get some of Bert's cookie just because he WANTS it."

She's turned out wonderfully!

Like a lot of people, Ernie was my favorite as a kid. Now that I'm a middle-aged adult, though, I really "get" Bert.

Yea I "get" Bert too. Though I hope I'm not middle aged yet...
