Mr. Rogers talks to the US senate Amazing Video :)

In 1969, the US Senate had a hearing on funding the proposed Corporation for Public Broadcasting, but President Nixon wanted it cut in half for the Vietnam War. Sometimes nice guys do win some.

Mr. Rogers never loses his cool with these people. A true example to everyone.

Oh you should see the slander Fox News threw around about him, a while back.

Seriously, this actually happened.

OMG enough with the Vietnam rumors! He was HERE, obviously in this video and still making shows, advocating the rights and love of children instead of getting 150 confirmed sniper kills in 'Nam or whatever crap everyone says to try and discredit the most caring, loving, down-to-earth human being the world has ever seen. And NO, he doesn't wear sweaters to hide his completely tattooed arms. There's an episode where he goes swimming, and his arms are 100% ink free. Sheesh...
