The Christian Alert

Our children and grand children have an arch-nemesis at the one of the most senior positions of authority in the Federal Government. He underwent no scrutiny through a nomination process. Can initiate policy with near impunity and is accountable only to the President of the United States. He is the "Safe School Czar" Kevin Jennings, of the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, and he wants our children and grand children to know everything there is about the homosexual lifestyle. Yes, the founder of GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network) has outlined a plan for the future of the American educational system. He wants to unleash a campaign of homosexual desensitization upon our children as part of his "school curriculum." As he outlines in his plan, Jennings wants homosexual history books in the library, gender-neutral bathrooms and changing areas, homosexual proms, and even gender-neutral athletic teams. He wants to take away the parental right of home schooling to guarantee a steady diet of homosexual teaching for our children. He wants to impose his agenda on even private faith based schools. The radical homosexual lobby is moving forward with their plan to indoctrinate our nation's school children while a majority of Americans carry on about their lives blissfully ignorant.

     Well, a glimmer of hope has arrived. The Obama Administration's Fiscal Commission has recommended to "eliminate the Office of Safe & Drug Free Schools." Point No. 16 in the commission's draft document recommends eliminating this office would save 1.8 billion in tax dollars by 2015. The analysis noted, "While school safety should be protected, violence and drug abuse are problems that occur far less on school grounds than elsewhere. As the Congressional Budget Office points out in the Budget Options Volume 2 report, children are more likely to be victims of violence away from school, and while drug use is more common than violence, it still occurs infrequently on school property." It continued with criticism that results haven't really been seen from Jennings' operations: "Further, the results hoped for in creation of the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools have not been demonstrated."

     Mass Resistance, a Massachusetts organization that works to counteract the advance of homosexual activism, has investigated Jennings' background and activities and has described how GLSEN has played a key role in plans to "transgenderize" schools in Maine.

Mass Resistance has launched a petition to have Jennings removed, as has Grassroots Nation.

     At the Washington Times, a series of editorials addressed worries over Jennings' influence on children.  Here are a couple of excerpts:

"Teaching children sexual techniques is simply not appropriate. Unfortunately, it is part of a consistent pattern by some homosexual activists to promote underage homosexuality while pretending that their mission is simply to promote tolerance for so-called alternative lifestyles."

"It is outrageous that someone involved in this scandal is being paid by the taxpayers to serve in a high-powered position at the Education Department, of all places. At some point, [Education Secretary Arne] Duncan, Mr. Jennings, Obama administration spokesmen and the president himself are going to have to start answering questions about all this. Refusing to do so won't make the issue go away."

     If there is a time when we need to pray and take action for the future of America and our children it is now. I strongly encourage everyone reading this article to please pray and call or write you elected officials and press them hard about defunding the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools.
