Basically, Kevin Jennings had one meeting with a student in which he tried to handle a situation that had already happened that involved sex. Yes, he should’ve asked more questions, and brought in appropriate authorities. However, that admitted mistake is nowhere even remotely close to an endorsement of gay statutory rape. First, he was talking to the student about an incident that’d already happened, NOT encouraging anything in the future. Rather, he is saddened to see a gay student resorting to a bathroom for sex. Second, the quote about the condom is truncated in a completely misleading way. The full quote below speaks to both of these points:

JENNINGS: I said, “What were you doing in Boston on a school night, Brewster?” He got very quiet, and he finally looked at me and said, “Well, I met somebody in the bus station bathroom and I went home with him.” High school sophomore, 15 years old. That was the only way he knew how to meet gay people. I was a closeted gay teacher, 24 years old, didn’t know what to say. Knew I should say something quickly, so I finally — my best friend had just died of AIDS the week before — I looked at Brewster and said, “You know, I hope you knew to use a condom.” He said to me something I will never forget. He said “Why should I, my life isn’t worth saving anyway.”

Movie stars and politicians are very much alike when they reach the top of their game and realize it was all an act.

Quoted from and linked to at:
POLANSKI, THE ‘BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE’, & BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

The reality is that a whole lot of very evil people are intentionally exploiting this agenda as a way to divert criticism back onto the critic.

It’s not that men who have sex with each others are even “homosexual,” however you see that term. What they are, are people with no moral boundaries, sex merely being one more thing they use and exploit.

This is what at least some of these men advising Barack Obama are. Michele Obama – as long as she supports this fraud – is welcomed. But if Michele Obama or someone she cared for ever stood up, she would find out what’s going on. Not that she would stand up, as these people depend upon her alleged Jackie-O-ness in the marketing of this manipulation of the American public.

I am constantly amazed that too many will not ascribe ill intentions, of equal justice and opportunity for all AS REQUIRED UNDER THE CONSTITUTION, to the power mongers of whatever party. This country once directly killed over 600,000 of its own people in the interests of property and power, violating its own Constitution to do so. That was nearly 150 years ago, and we still have not learned that lesson.

On the campaign trail they’d say over and over they were “fighting” for their “values.” Never mind they never named those values. Nor did any of the Minion Media ever ask them to name them.

Nor, probably, will the Minion Media ever ask them. Or Teleprompter Boy.

Erick’s article displays what Teleprompter Boy values. We know he has no virtues.

This just came to mind:

In case the embed didn’t work, here’s the quote of Commodus from the movie “Gladiator:”

“But I have other virtues father. Ambition. That can be a virtue when it drives us to excel.”

Thank you.

The response (exculpation vs. condemnation) depends entirely upon what identity group each falls into as well as their prominence and political persuasion – and the political consequences.

And moral relativism provides the easy escape from logic and salve for their seared consciences.

“There is the obvious parallel to the cases in the Catholic Church, which have rightly scandalized the public and the media. Prosecutors and plaintiffs’ attorneys have been dogged in pursuing these cases — whether out of concern for their careers or for justice — and the outrage was so widespread that the State of California created a one-year window in 2003 during which the statute of limitations on abuse crimes by Catholic priests (and others) was lifted. That meant the victims of men who were often long dead could finally get their day in court, or find some sense of justice and closure — and for cases that were no more egregious than Polanski’s abuse of Geimer. Polanski is alive, at least. Comparisons are by their nature invidious. But what if Roman Polanksi were wearing a Roman collar? Would ‘Monsignor Polanksi’ receive the same considerations?”

I think not. But that’s how radical, left-leaning Democrats think. They really don’t believe in goodness and protection for those who are vulnerable.

Values change, Virtues do not. I like the way that sounds.
Thank you.

Missing sentence.

One must wonder if Jennings would have had the same reaction and also encouraged the relationship had it been a fifteen year old girl meeting a man televangelist in a bus station restroom.”

Virtues are absolute: values rise and fall and are exchangeable. Values have been equated with opinions/personal beliefs, and with relativism in play, values

Courage is not a “value” which can be bartered intellectually. Honesty is absolute: its value does not rise and fall with opinions…

…unless you are a Democrat.

If we let the Left keep moving in this direction, in another 5 years, some morning “news” program will have famous Pedophiles on their show talking about the attributes they find most attractive in children; and “enlightened” parents will be taking notes.

None of this surprises me and I am not coming at it from a soapbox. IMO, it is simply the recognition of the deterioration of a value-oriented society. I suspect, that if the Liberals were not in complete power and control right now, they might be dancing around this a little more, perhaps giving the vileness of the acts more lip service. Now that they have achieved so much, which started decades ago in all spheres, socially, politically and spiritually, they don’t have to.

All we can do is to take a stand and call them out on it. Their acceptance of such reprehensible behavior is borne out of their individual loss of a moral compass…called a conscience.
