My caregiver often brings her 18 month old son with her to work because he especially enjoys waking me up in the morning. Since he is around a lot. I am a course exposed to a lot of his favorite activities, including watching Sesame Street. Therefore, it disturbed me greatly to discover that the Republican Party has launched a campaign to eliminate this educational show. The campaign involves not just presidential candidates, but also other leading figures and pundits. This alarming development is detailed below the fold.
If the Republican candidates for president can't agree on much beyond the fact that Barack Obama is a disgusting presence of evil, there is one thing allll endorse wholeheartedly. That is the danger presented by the children's television show Sesame Street, which they claim is basically an indoctrination tool for the Democratic Party.
On a recent campaign swing in the deep South, Newt Gingrich pointed out over and over again that most of the Democrats alive today where brainwashed by Sesame Street when they were very young and that the show constantly tries to preach left-wing socialist principles. Rick Santorum, speaking at the Westboro Baptist Church, pointed out that not once has Sesame Street mention that Jesus died for the sins of the human race and that He was the only true Savior. Wilberforce Romney as the moment the fact that none of the characters drove a Cadillac, BMW, or Lexis, and that while some of them were seen in boats, they never reflected the true American vision of owning yachts. Ron Paul promised his administration would end all funding of the show and its host network.
All three also bemoan Sesame Street's insistence on presenting “alternative” lifestyles such as living in a rubbish bin or being a hippie as acceptable. Both Michelle Bachmann and Herman Cain seized on the lack of ethnic diversity as racists, they're not being one black character in the cast. Cain also produced a statistical survey showing that the number nine was featured less than the 10% of the time it deserved.
A 10 year study by Liberty University established that the show has a strong aversion to Christian names and had no characters named after biblical figures, demonstrating a clear anti-Christian bias. Grover Norquist recently filed a million-dollar defamation lawsuit against the show, which he claims resented him in a demeaning manner. Fox news is preparing a 12 part series exposing the Communists nature of the show, which refers to this respected news organization as “Pox” News. A doctoral dissertation at the thesis at the James Inhofe School of Science at Bob Jones University details the rewriting of history, practice on the show, for example Dr. Nobel Price’s teaching that Al Gore invented the Internet.
Popular Republican authority Rush Limbaugh spoke out against the left-wing media cover-up of Sesame Street's latent political nature, despite the appearance of several articles in the respected publications that pointed them out, see here, and here, and here. He also described the character Grundgetta as a “slut and whore”.
All of the allegations in this article have been confirmed as true facts by independent red watchdogs and a big yellow bird.
