Sarah Palin killed Elmo?

Well, not quite but Barbara Boxer has been quoted as saying 'Republicans have a vendetta against Elmo'

Boxer said that the cost of four hours of the Iraq war would be enough to keep PBS funded — and the popular fire-red children's character on the air.

Is Senator Ma'am correct in her assessment? That the big bad GOP have got it in for our furry little friend Elmo?

Almost as farcical as this blog.
