"use a condom" Jennings

EDITORIAL: At the president's pleasure
'Safe school czar' encouraged child sex with an older man
September 28, 2009

A teacher was told by a 15-year-old high school sophomore that he was having homosexual sex with an "older man." At the very least, statutory rape occurred. Fox News reported that the teacher violated a state law requiring that he report the abuse. That former teacher, Kevin Jennings, is President Obama's "safe school czar". It's getting hard to keep track of all of this president's problematic appointments. Clearly, the process for vetting White House employees has broken down.

In this one case in which Mr. Jennings had a real chance to protect a young boy from a sexual predator, he not only failed to do what the law required but actually encouraged the relationship.

According to Mr. Jennings' own description in a new audiotape discovered by Fox News, the 15-year-old boy met the "older man" in a "bus station bathroom" and was taken to the older man's home that night. When some details about the case became public, Mr. Jennings threatened to sue another teacher who called his failure to report the statutory rape "unethical." Mr. Jennings' defenders asserted that there was no evidence that he was aware the student had sex with the older man.

However, the new audiotape contradicts this claim. In 2000, Mr. Jennings gave a talk to the Iowa chapter of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, an advocacy group that promotes homosexuality in schools. On the tape, Mr. Jennings recollected that he told the student to make sure "to use a condom" when he was with the older man. That he actively encouraged the relationship is reinforced by Mr. Jennings' own description in his 1994 book, "One Teacher in 10." In that account, the teacher boasts how he allayed the student's concerns about the relationship to such a degree that the 15-year-old "left my office with a smile on his face that I would see every time I saw him on the campus for the next two years, until he graduated."

Mr. Jennings' denials about these events reveal a lack of remorse. He has not admitted that he made mistakes in this case, and he now refuses to answer any questions about the scandal. Don't forget, this is a presidential appointee we're talking about. Mr. Obama should make clear what his standards are for public servants serving at the pleasure of the president. Encouraging and covering up man-boy sexual activity are serious offenses. The White House should force Mr. Jennings to come clean.

States need to start taking states rights serious and take back their school systems and close down the power of the unions when it comes to parents rights and their children.

time for everyone to home school

[ilovesarah2012]

I can’t imagine why any normal, sane person would want their children in public schools these days.

[rstark56]

Isn’t the Feds trying to implement this in Christian schools also

[glide625]

Uh huh, yep; and yet.......millions will continue to send their kids to public schools.

[HiTech RedNeck]

This is not your father’s public school.

[HiTech RedNeck]

I wouldn’t be surprised but have heard of nothing specific.

[American Dream 246]

PLEASE alert everybody you know - send it to your email lists and CALL ALL YOUR REP! Time to stand up for our children and our country. This is so TERRIBLE AND OUTRAGEOUS. We HAVE to do something to STOP that abomination.

We have been trying to warn everyone we know about Kevin Jennings and his radical agenda. What amazes me is that public school teachers and parents almost consistently say “that won’t happen in our school”. To which I respond:

1. If you want to continue to receive federal funding you won’t have a choice.

2. If you don’t care about federal funding, do you at least care about children in other schools?

It’s already happening. Now.

I notice that the admin/moderator dont consider this as a breaking news so NOT important - meaning something that we have to act on IMMEDIATELY? WHY IS NOT THAT A BREAKING NEWS??? Don’t you have children??? Or you just don’t care about that??? Wow, this is getting scary that you took that off the breaking news since we have such a short time to act and try to stop that...really, admin/mod, you surprise me a lot! I am sure Jim would consider that as BREAKING AND IMPORTANT!!!

[ColdWater]

WHY IS NOT THAT A BREAKING NEWS???

Because it is three weeks old?

[ilovesarah2012]

Probably but I doubt they get very far. Sad what America has become.

[ETL]

Agree 100%!

[ETL]

Because it is three weeks old?

Didn't realize that. Still, it is an urgent issue that needs to be brought to people's attention.

Can't afford private school
