Sex Ed for Kindergarteners 'Right Thing to Do,' Says Obama
ABC News ^ | July 18, 2007 | Teddy Davis and Lindsey Ellerson

Posted on 09/10/2008 3:48:18 AM PDT by pjsbro

"'Barack Obama supports teaching sex education to kindergarteners,'" said Obama mimicking Keyes' distinctive style of speech. "Which -- I didn’t know what to tell him (laughter)."

"But it’s the right thing to do," Obama continued, "to provide age-appropriate sex education, science-based sex education in schools."

It was this very idea that finally forced the Impeached President to fire Jocelyn Elders.

Both are as dumb as a bag of hammers.

And Hussein Obama is the DNC’s number 1 pick for the Presidency.

Here is affirmative action in action.

Apparently Obama feels this is not the parents right or responsibility. Again he wants the government to be “parent”. But in light of Bristol Palin he may use it to bait the Republicans and again turn the issue to a young girl’s unfortunate decision despite the fact that no amount of education will prevent 100% of teen pregnancies.

I doubt we’ll hear any chanting of “Keep the government out of my child’s bedroom” from the left...

So what was the proprosed curriculum for Kindergardeners, other than the vague non-specific “age-appropriate sex education”? It is like he makes it up as he goes along.

Example of Obama’s “age-appropriate sex education, science-based sex education in schools”:

-Gay is normal
-Straight is bad
-It’s OK that Heather has two mommies
-It’s OK that King wants to marry another king
-If your parents don’t agree, turn them in

They’re all over the place on this one. First Obama “clarifies” by saying he wanted to provide “medically accurate” information to students. Now, the campaign spokesman, Bill Burton, states this bill “.....was written to protect young children from sexual predators.....” as their second line of defense. Trotting out the “it’s for the children” mantra shows they’re worried.

Nor will we ever hear any of them chanting "Keep the government out of my child's underpants"

In 1923 a group of intellectuals were assembled by a Soros like multimillionaire in Germany to identify the institutions which had unaccountably prevented the communist revolution of 1917 in Russia from spreading its blessings into Germany.

Several institutions were identified such as the military, the church, the school system, and especially the family. Quite deliberately, these intellectuals undertook to undermine those institutions so that we all can be blessed by the coming of communism. These intellectuals formed themselves into a school and attached themselves to Frankfurt University and became known as The Frankfurt School. Hitler chased them out of Germany in 1933 both because they were leftists and because they were Jews and they emigrated in a kind of a intellectual diaspora with many of them settling in America where they found fertile soil especially during the anti-Vietnam years. One of their greatest exponents was a theorist named Gramsci who greatly influenced Saul Alinsky who, in his turn, was hero worshiped by a young Barak Obama.

The teaching of sex in kindergarten was advocated by the Frankfurt school and by Gramsci and by Saul Alinsky so it is not surprising that Barak Obama favors it. Not incidentally, it is a great way to destroy the moral position of the family.

Destroy the family and you have destroyed the fundamental building block of society and shorn it of a principal obstacle to the advance the Brave New World.

Can you imagine the perverted minds that would want to teach little 5-6 year olds how to put condoms on bananas?

McCain ad:

"Obama's one accomplishment?" the narrator asks. "Legislation to teach 'comprehensive sex education' to kindergartners. Learning about sex before learning to read? Barack Obama. Wrong on education. Wrong for your family."

Their response:

Bill Burton, Obama's press secretary, responded in a statement: “It is shameful and downright perverse for the McCain campaign to use a bill that was written to protect young children from sexual predators as a recycled and discredited political attack against a father of two young girls – a position that his friend Mitt Romney also holds. Last week, John McCain told Time magazine he couldn't define what honor was. Now we know why."

Teaching sex-ed to kindergartners was my idea!

Yes, Gramsci’s “long march through the institutions” continues.

Two other Frankfurt School intllectuals were Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer. They developed a survey instrument which scored people on the “F-scale”, a purported measure of authoritarian preference in rulers. Of course, many of the questions simply measure the degree to which one prefers traditional moral standards.

The idea of an “F-scale” pops up throughout the history of the left. Robert Altemeyer has tried to administer shock treatment to this dead horse in several books, and John Dean (of Watergate fame) wrote a book using Altemeyer’s discredited research to imply that the GOP was authoritarian. Although Altemeyer stated that right-wingers were more likely to be authoritarian, Adorno and Horkheimer maintained that they couldn’t find a correlation between political preference and authoritarian tendency.

Note that the Soviets and Maoists had similar tests and survey instruments. The Soviets had the psikushka, and Mao had the Cultural Revolution. In the US, we have a softer totalitarianism that has grown increasingly worse since we lost the Cold War.
