Winnie the Pooh is a Democrat, well meaning, but his love of hunny (i.e. tax dollars) leads him into trouble.

Piglet is the average voter. Interested in politics, but not set on any one particular idea or platform.

Kanga is the the average non-voter with no interest in politics.

Tigger is your Occupy Wall Street type.  Well meaning, but with no plans or reasoning ability and causing at least as much trouble as he solves.

Rabbit is a moderate Republican.  Always worried that others, especially Tigger and Gopher, will ruin his garden, but not a unkindly soul.

Owl is your typical Libertarian.  Full of grand ideas, but no common sense.

Eeyore is a Paulite.  He's certain everything is going to pieces.

Gopher is your typical Tea Party Republican.  He generally messes things up and has a unhealthy obsession with blowing things up.

What I wonder now though is if Winnie the Pooh is appropriate for children. Someone above called him a hunny addict and that's accurate. Could the hunny be symbolic for something like hash or heroin? What will the effects be on our children? I don't want a silly bear wearing with a red shirt whose addicted to drugs to be entertaining my children. Is the hunny a substitute for some type of drug or bad behavior? Perhaps we'll see an episode where Winnie the Pooh goes to rehab after her gets Obamacare.
Of course not.  Back when A.A. Milne wrote the books, hardly anyone used narcotics, at least publically.

There's been drug addicts since the beginning of time though.
True, but no children's writer with a sense of decency at that time would have incorporated such a theme into their stories.  Whoever made that comment was just trying to be funny.  Pooh is a bear, and bears like honey, so it only makes sense that Pooh likes honey.  And in the original stories, he only wore a red shirt during the winter.
Thus symbolizing that the proletariat will turn to the communist ideal when times are cold and dark yet return to bourgeois aspirations when times are warm and sunny. Wink
