Kevin Clash, Elmo Puppeteer, Resigns

NEW YORK (AP) - Elmo puppeteer Kevin Clash has resigned from "Sesame Street" in the wake of an allegation that he had sex with an underage youth.

In its statement Tuesday, Sesame Workshop said "the controversy surrounding Kevin's personal life has become a distraction that none of us want," leading Clash to conclude "that he can no longer be effective in his job."

"This is a sad day for Sesame Street," the company said.

In a statement of his own, Clash said "personal matters have diverted attention away from the important work Sesame Street is doing and I cannot allow it to go on any longer. I am deeply sorry to be leaving and am looking forward to resolving these personal matters privately."

This is what the liberal agenda promotes, AND finances. Not only that but they defend it.
"This is a sad day for Sesame Street"
as if firing a homosexual child molester that performs for children is sad.
They should be APOLOGIZING for enabling this freak to spew his ideas covertly while recruiting young boys to gaydom.
DEFUND this Government subsidized crap! It is polluting children's minds.
