occamswrist: Elmo guy did a TV interview one time (I came across it because of my kids). He said that Sesame Street was hesitant to show him in public for years. They didn't explain why on the show and so I assumed it was because he was black. I was like wtf...

Now I see that it was really because he's a gay pedophile...how much did Sesame Street know about this guy? How much did Big Bird know? What did they know and when did they know it?

Quick question - outside of Henson, how many puppeteers are well known?

The whole illusion is set up that you don't know or see these people.

MattyFridays: I'm shocked - SHOCKED! - that Gloria Allred isn't involved in this.

There are no women involved, so Allred is not interested. She's all up in the Petraeus thing anyway.

Cythraul's assuming the hairstylist was younger than 23 when the relationship occurred. The article pegs him at 21 or 20.

But 20 is still legal. Add that to the recant and the admission by one of the other accusers that they didn't have sex until after he was 18 -- the suit alleges "mutual masterbation" when he was underage -- and it, I hope, starts to undermine the original suit. I don't know, maybe he's guilty, but he seems like a nice guy being targetted just because he's gay and a celebrity. Note none of these came out until after the documentary put his name and face out there.

Mjeck: I'm not ok with underage sex. I'm also not ok with a 50yo man boning a 23yo man, WHEN HE'S ELMO!!! JESUS!

I'm not okay with you, so please go away.

Is Clash the new Tiger Woods? Wholesome image yet he was getting all sorts of strange on the side?

xanadian: In other news, considering we've already had 1 person recant his story about being molested at 16, I wouldn't be surprised if the other 2 now appearing out of nowhere RIGHT NOW for no apparent reason are also full of shiat.

If I were Clash, I'd countersue these yutzes for defamation of character. And I mean sue to the hilt.

Or it could go the way of Herman Cain...the accusers come out of the woodwork, are denounced and then things just fade away.

Cythraul: Dude, you're not helping.

How do you figure he's not helping? There's nothing illegal or even wrong about young men hooking up with older men.
