Jennings - SAFE School Czar? NOT!!

The past May, Kevin Jennings was appointed to be Assistant Deputy Secretary of the Department of Education. He's been dubbed the "safe school czar". However, his past history (well-documented) makes very clear that he is a threat to children's safety. He most certainly was for a young boy whom he counseled while at Concord Academy in Massachusetts in the late 1980s. The young boy, a very troubled youth, came to Jennings and told him how he was picked up at a bus station by a gay male predator. Did Jennings report the incident, as we was legally bound to do? No! He just told the boy, "You know, I hope you knew to use a condom."

Jennings himself is gay. He founded the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). He made very clear that he wants only pro-gay viewpoints taught in schools. He is admittedly hostile to Christianity. The Family Research Council put out an excellent dossier; I urge its study.

Now I urge you to read this from Americans for Truth. At a GLSEN conference in 1997, Jennings gave a speech in which he extolled Harry Hay, founder of the Mattachine Society. Hay publicly supported the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). As the name indicates, this bunch advocates pederasty. Apparently Jennings refuses to say whether or not he was aware of Hay's affiliation with NAMBLA. Given his response to the boy's plight mentioned earlier in this post, it is entirely conceivable that indeed he knew. This has raised the eyebrows of even some gays who do at least repudiate pederasty. Scott Baker of Breitbart.tv shares this video:



Let's look at Jenning's affiliation with ACT-UP (Aids Coaltion To Unleash Power). He was a member and is a funder/supporter of an pornographic ACT-UP exhibit currently underway at Harvard University. As you look at the link, be advised that there are pictures that are vile and rabidly anti-Catholic. However, you must be informed as to the proclivities and sympathies of this man who will wield way too much influence over American public education.

And guess what? Jennings and his gay partner hosted an Obama fundraiser at their home - with the Messiah Most Miserable himself in attendance! Are we surprised? Does the word "payback" come to mind?

Now the following may be considered by some to be a needless sidetrack from the Jennings issue. In reality, I think it is foundational not only to the matter at hand, but to the whole direction of modern public education. My first college degree was a BS in mathematics, with a minor in education. I was thu required to study education - at the University of Maryland, a school known for fawning all over liberal icons.

It was taught there, and is commonly held today, that the "father of modern public education" was John Dewey. He laid down much of the groundwork for the structures and missions. He was also a humanist who signed the Humanist Manifesto. Here's his signature on the original 1933 version. Another version came out 40 years later, but Dewey had already passed away. I urge you to read both versions and see how the hostility towards religion, particularly towards Christianity, is more blatant, as well as the call for sexual license. We see such proclivities in public education today and most certainly in Jenning's appointment to this high post. Some call for Jenning's appointment to be rescinded. Well, I'll go further and say that the entire Department of Education should be dismantled. There is no Constitutional authority for its existence, anyway.

It's way past time to consider homeschooling.
