Kevin Jennings For Safe Schools

Kevin Jennings, Obama's Safe Schools "Czar", is in the news. So I thought this bit from Atlas Shrugs might be of interest.

President Obama has appointed Kevin Jennings, founder of GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network) -- which sponsored the conference that produced the notorious "Fistgate" scandal (in which young teens were guided on how to perform dangerous homosexual perversions including "fisting") -- to head up "Safe Schools" efforts at the Department of Education. Jennings is a vicious, anti-religious bigot who once said "[F-k] 'em" to the "Religious Right." He supports promoting homosexuality and gender confusion as normative to even young students. He made that comment in a New York City church. TAKE ACTION: Urge your U.S. Congressman and Senators to call for the withdrawal of Jennings' appointment at the Education Department. Call Congress at 202-224-3121 or 202-225-3121. More here,
You can't make this stuff up. Obama has appointed this radical to head up our "safe schools"? But who is going to keep kids safe from him? I have said this before: I don't care what you do in the bedroom - whatever rocks your boat, as long as it's two consenting adults, but don't bring it into the classroom. The left will twist this into some homophobic charge. I am not, and that is a fallacious argument. This is another terrible Obama choice. Do not traumatize children. Why can't the schools just teach reading, writing, arithmetic and civics? There is radical in every Obama appointee.
Visit Atlas for more links and to read the rest of what she has to say.

As to the Obama radicals. All we can do is to take them down one by one. If we can do one a month for the next 12 months it will definitely have an effect on the November elections.

I'm still waiting for the expose on the SEIU. I believe it is just a matter of time.

I don't think the position to which Jennings was appointed should even exist. But his founding of the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network does not make him a bad person, and the charge that he is "promoting homosexuality" is little more than anti-gay bigotry.

I'm sorry to see these links appear here.

BTW, here's what Jennings was reported to have said:

Twenty percent of people are hard-core fair-minded people. Twenty percent are hard-core bigots. We need to ignore the hard-core bigots, get more of the hard-core fair-minded people to speak up, and we'll pull that 60 percent ... over to our side. That's really what I think our strategy has to be. We have to quit being afraid of the religious right. We also have to quit -- ... I'm trying to find a way to say this. I'm trying not to say, '[F---] 'em!' which is what I want to say, because I don't care what they think! [audience laughter] Drop dead!9
If that disqualifies someone from holding office, then most bloggers -- left and right -- would be disqualified.

Kevin Jennings saying that he hates the religious right certainly does not qualify him from anything, but giving advice to a 15 or 16 year old boy to use a condom when having sex with older men definitely should. What I dont understand is the double standard. If an older man was having sex with a young girl, chances are that he would be reported (deservingly so). Child molestation is just that no matter what the sex of the child is.

Here is why this guy should be thrown out on his butt: teachers and educators have a legal obligation as mandated reporters to notify the authority of abusive activity. He did not do that because of his radical beliefs. Now if he wants to get fisted in his bedroom, I really dont care. But someone who would refuse to report the abuse should not be in power to make decisions that affect my child's education.

The first thing I thought when I began to read this is, the book is called "Atlas Shrugged", not "Shrugs". LOL After researching, I see that I was the one that missed the joke...temporarily. Anyway, it is a phenomenal book by Ayn Rand and a terrifying illustration of what we are currently experiencing, written decades before. Nostradamus, look out!

2nd, Eric Scheie, you should learn to read and comprehend prior to spouting off...as has become the norm for most liberals supporting this NAMBLA-affiliated piece of trash. Simon made his views on homosexuality quite clear and if you are too dense to see beyond a non-liberal using the term 'homosexual' and understand it to be nothing more than a slam to gay rights and an example of bigotry, then you have more to worry about than Kevin Jennings keeping your children safe...perhaps he can babysit.

I would just like to close with: please, all of you left that have a shred, an ounce of backbone, balls, cahones, jevos, what-have-you, PLEASE get this guy out of the White House and away from America's youth. Pay attention to your congressmen/women and senators. There is something very wrong here and we do have the power to make it stop. Of the people, by the people and for the people.

Finally, to paraphrase the late, brilliant Benjamin Franklin: "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both."

Kathleen, this is my blog and I'll "spout off" here any time I feel like it.

As to the claim that I am "too dense to see beyond a non-liberal using the term 'homosexual' and understand it to be nothing more than a slam to gay rights and an example of bigotry," I doubt that you have read (much less comprehended) my innumerable posts on the subject of homosexuals and/or homosexuality.

The point I've tried to make in relation to this issue is that no connection between Jennings and NAMBLA has been established.

Furthermore, I think that had the teenager been relating a heterosexual experience to a heterosexual teacher, people would not be screaming about "pedophilia."

Kathleen,

Eric and I are friends. From time to time we see things differently. We remain friends.
