Hillary Protege Presiding Over School Sex Crime Wave
NewsMax ^ | 10/14/02 | Limbacher

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton may have another burgeoning sex a scandal unfolding right under her nose, as her one-time White House protege, now New York City Schools Chancellor Joel Klein, struggles to get a grip on the city's out-of-control public school system.

Just as her husband turned the Oval Office into a high-powered bachelor's lair where a number of women report they suffered sexual attacks, hallways and playgrounds in Chancellor Klein's schools are now regarded by parents as free fire zones for sexual predators.

"You have guys walking down the hall and grabbing girls' breasts," New York University child psychologist Dr. Elissa Brown complained to the New York Daily News.

One Queens, N.Y., mom told the paper that she recently yanked her daughter out of a Rockaway elementary school after the girl suffered several sexual assaults in the cafeteria. Klein's underlings merely transferred the offender to another class. The girl now goes to Catholic school.

The News reported recently that chancellor's office is now stocked to the gills with veterans of the Clinton White House. One of Klein's new advisors - Eli Broad - seems to have been selected largely on the basis of his substantial contributions to the Clinton Legal Defense Funds, an account opened after Mr. Clinton himself was sued for sexual harassment.

Other Clinton-connected Klein picks include Benjamin Tucker, who worked in the Clinton Justice Department; Tony Shorris, who served on the 1992 Clinton-Gore transition team; Richard Riley, a former Clinton Education Secretary; and Michele Cahill, who co-wrote a book on education with Clinton advisor and Children's Defense Fund founder Marian Wright Edelman.

A Clinton administration insider himself, Klein was tapped by First Lady-turned-Senator Hillary Clinton in 1993 to replace Vince Foster as deputy White House Counsel after Foster was found shot to death in a Virginia park.

After being appointed in September by Mayor Michael Bloomberg to shake up the city's school system, Klein outlined his plans for reform at Queens press conference - with Hillary Clinton standing by his side.

The schools chancellor seems to be borrowing a page from Mrs. Clinton's playbook when it comes to dealing with the recent sex crime wave sweeping city schools. Like the former first lady during her White House days, Klein and his team of Clintonistas have apparently taken a hear-no-evil, see-no-evil approach to even the worst of the attacks.

Last month a kindergarten boy was beaten and sodomized by a gang of older boys in a Bronx school bathroom. And two weeks ago a 12-year-old boy by was nearly raped with a wooden stick in an attack on a Brooklyn school playground.

But according to the News, Klein's administrators "frequently say to parents there's nothing they can do."

The predicament is a familiar one for White House women who remember what it was like when Klein's old boss ruled the roost.

While the ex-president's Oval Office sexual assault of Kathleen Willey received wide press coverage, other similar attacks went virtually unreported by news organizations.

One frightened "player in the Democratic Party" told the story of her Oval Office attack to Newsweek reporter Michael Isikoff; an account he described as "chilling" in his 1999 book "Uncovering Clinton."

After inviting her into the Oval Office, "Clinton started getting physical, trying to kiss her, touching her breasts," Isikoff said.

"I've never had a man take advantage of me like that," she complained, so scared she would only talk on condition of anonymity.

The woman also claimed to know of a female "administration official" who had told her about "Clinton slipping his hands up her leg."

Stories about the attacks on Willey and the other women reached the White House Counsel's office, where Linda Tripp worked - and where School's Chancellor Klein then served as deputy White House Counsel.

But according to Tripp, he was part of the problem.

"Joel was also a member of the so-called Secret Police," she told a South Carolina audience in 2000. "He liked to have information on people because that gave him leverage to get the result that he wanted."

If Tripp's perspective on Hillary's one-time deputy White House counsel is accurate, New York City's school children had best look elsewhere for relief from the recent wave of sexual terror.

Two comments.

First, it will not stop because they have the FBI files.

Second, how could the apple not fall far from the tree?

As a NYC JHS teacher I can validate most of this article. We moved to Long Island precisely so our daughter would not have to go to a NYC JHS. Interestingly I believe she would have received a better education in the Jr High I teach in, but there was no way she would have found herself in the hallways and stairwells of that school. It's not just how the boys treat the girls, it's how the girls allow themselves to be treated.

The inner city culture defined by hip hop music and videos has created a mutual degradation of young males and females in our schools. Sadly this has also passed into suburban school systems through the mediunm of MTV. Even though I pay 4 grand in school taxes, my wife and I opted to send our daughter to Catholic HS because the infection of this culture of degfradation has moved into the public schools here as well.

And do you blame any of this on the Clintons?

I'm sorry, but NewsMax really is a joke of a "news" site.

Oh dahling, you are so transparent so early in the morning. The pervert in chief did invent the "it's okay to grope mindset ya know." But what do you care if the MTV generation took their cue from him eh? It is only sex, or not.

This can not be stated enough. The most amazing thing about the Clinton's was and is their ability to eradicate any effort to bring them to justice. The Clinton's have engaged in things that should sent them to prison for the rest of their natural lives. No parole. No time off for good behavior. And yet, what do we have? We are paying for the Clinton's to continue to assault us on a daily basis.

Would it suprise you that Joe Klien, who is "presiding over (a) school sex crime wave", to the job less than two months ago? And somehow "Hillary Clinton may have another burgeoning sex a scandal unfolding right under her nose!" This is another manufactured story by NewsMax.

I didn't mention Clinton did I? But the culture of no responsibilities, no consequences, and cultural relativism allowed Clinton to degrade his office and abuse his authority. Today it allows 13 year olds to demand sex from other 13 year olds. It allows 13 year old girls to act a sexual predators on younger boys. It allows students the possibility of wasting a 10 month school year and by serving five weeks in an air conditioned summer class room with breakfast, lunch, and train passes to move on to the next grade.

Did the Clintons do this? Of course not, but their friends and allies have been creating this environment for years. People like Edelman and her Chidren's defense council, people at the National Center on Education and The Economy who seek to impose their German Social Democratic public policy on education and the workplace. If this gets mixed up with the Clintons that's a tragedy, for they are only a symptom of the disease running through the vitals of education in America. If they are in the center of the crosshairs of places like Newsmax it only distracts the nation from those who are responsible for the calamity faced by our children and our future.

Newsmax just reports, doesn't make up the news. Perhaps they just don't slant it the way you prefer,as do the mainstream media types. They would find a way to blame it on Bush doncha know! That is if they find it offensive at all. The point is that this guy is a former Clinton big wig, as you well know.

Does it really mater if it is about morality and sex? That camp seeks to water down the conventions of interpersonal relations. Really people are just too uptignt about sex. Once the public looses it bonds of taboo, they will be set free.(Devil's advocate mode /off)

Either the Reporter did not dig far enough or Hillary is not paying much attention to this group. If she were more involved there would be more proselytizing of the girls to be Lesbians and any boy that touched a girl would be expelled.
