    It was one statement in a long interview that actually got left out in the first broadcast.

    Actually, they didn't. They made no statement. One man was interviewed and asked his opinion and from there MSM picked up an interview in a Baptist press. That's like someone giving an interview to Idaho daily and calling that plastering the opinions.

    Anyway back to Sesame Street...they could be as liberal as all hell. I don't care. They could be Mitt Romney voters and at this stage...I would still give them a free pass because of this dude, my hero:

    I would be very careful about taking some of the gimmicks on MacGyver as scientific fact. The Mythbusters did an episode on some of MacGyver's tricks and some of the results were less than spectacular.

    But I do get your point. Anyone that takes time out of their schedule to claim MacGyver is what is wrong with pop culture has too much time on their hands... and needs their head examined.

    I can see how it can be construed as left wing since it teaches kids to share and care about the feelings of others.
