'Happy Days' Star: Elmo Creator Has Talent, Ignore Sex Abuse Allegations
Breitbart.com ^ | November 21, 2012 | Christian Toto

Henry Winkler of "Happy Days" fame is considered one of the nicest people in Hollywood. You don't hear any horror stories about his on-set behavior, and he's managed to leave the iconic Fonzie character behind to play supporting roles in projects like "Arrested Development" and "Here Comes the Boom."

Winkler's reaction to puppeteer Kevin Clash resigning from "Sesame Street" amid allegations the puppeteer engaged in sexual acts with minors hardly seemed in character. In fact, Winkler's comment is downright ugly.

No one is disputing Clash's talents. Just watch last year's documentary "Being Elmo" to marvel at his many gifts. But this is hardly the "end of story."

The hags on The View, like all leftist hags, are total perverts. Whoopie defends rape. They all defended Clinton’s abuse of women. That liberals ran as the party protecting the “reproductive rights” of women just shows how demented and vapid the GOP is.

Here the left defends rapists of women and children and they offered getting the government into every woman’s womb through Federal control of birth control.

They are going to “progress” to pushing the homo rape of boys first.

I can offer a historical argument.

In the AD 60s the Roman Emperor Nero married another man. He then did it again some years later. This was in a civilized, urban, technologically sophisticated, completely pagan culture where almost anything went theologically and where Christians were not only a minimal factor, they were being fed to the lions.

It didn’t catch on. My question to liberals always is...why not? Why did the Empire eventually turn Christian, instead of following in Nero’s stead?

I submit because whether people admit or not, whether we can theologically explain it or not, there is *something* inherently self-destructive about homosexuality which ends up collapsing in on itself. *If* it worked, it would have securely established itself all over the world long before now. It hasn’t. There is some contrary pressure against it—a pressure that is not rooted in theology but rooted perhaps in human nature itself.

Because a brutal whoreson murderer said so. After which the Roman Empire pretty much turned to crap.

And but for a chance spearthrust during the Battle of Samarra, it might have turned out really differently.

Who, Constantine? It's ridiculous to think that the Empire turned Christian *because* of him. Emperors strted cults all over the place. None stuck except this one. Why? Why did Constantine have this great success and Julian didn't?

Second of all, the Empire had already turned to crap. Christianity managed to salvage what was left of it from the ruins of its own stupidity.
