Ted Cruz is terrified of Sesame Street

[TexasTowelie]

Sen. Ted Cruz was morally outraged on Wednesday when the Twitter account of the PBS kid’s show, Sesame Street, tweeted out a picture of a rainbow-colored heart with the caption, “Love always wins.”

“Endless propaganda,” Cruz wrote reacting to the image. “This is a taxpayer-funded show targeted at Pre-K children. It doesn’t need to be talking about sex or sexuality at all.”

It’s a mystery as to what agenda Cruz thinks Sesame Street is promoting here, other than reminding people that it’s Pride Month and that gay and transgender people exist.

Republicans threw a similar fit earlier this month when Sesame Street and CNN aired a town hall discussing racism and fairness with Elmo.

3. It's referring to LOVE you perverted fuckwit ...

I guess, though, to sick fucks like you, love is really just about nothing but 'sex and sexuality'

Also ... how many Pre-K children do you imagine are on Twitter, to even see this?

Asshole.

5. If the producers of Sesame Street wanted to see Cruz, Tucker, etc.

Actually die from rage, they should do an episode where Elmo explains why he kneels during the National Anthem, special guest Levar Burton and Big Bird can talk about Black Lives Matter, and Cookie Monster can tell Grover his preferred pronouns.

7. Puleeze. Cruz was the moron behind the recent Paw Patrol 'controversy' too.

Pander, pander, boil and bubble. Lie more to create trouble!

He's a tool, and an idiot.

Isn't it Trump Jr he's in league with on this recent nutter butter crap which targets kids shows?
I'm pretty sure it is.

If this is how they think they're gonna bring in suburban moms, I have a reality check for them. The moms are pissed and want you to leave their extremely limited peaceful time when the kids get to watch a wholesome show alone! Also, their kids have already picked their hero's and millennials are not nearly as hate filled and non-inclusive as boomer parents were. Especially in the suburbs.

Maybe, I should just say, "please, proceed" here?
