53 House Republicans Call for Jennings Ouster

They see him pushing a pro-homosexuality agenda in his un-elected, un-vetted role as "safe school czar."

I find Jennings unfit for failing to report the serial statutory rape of one of his students, especially since his later activism at least hints that Jennings allowed the rape to go unreported because the 15-year-old male student was having a homosexual affair with a much older man. One is left to wonder if sympathy for their shared preference led him to cover up the crime, whereas he might have turned in heterosexual offenders.

If Obama keeps Jennings on-board, the public will likely remember him for the new position he will represent.

That of Home School Czar.

I agree this guy is a creep with an agenda, but I remember reading about a later interview with the kid involved. He said he was 16 and actively gay at the time and that the sex was consensual. Whether this is a machination of the White House Ministry of Propaganda is another matter.

Better check on this or you'll have gay rights trolls showing up here in droves getting all bitchy and sanctimonious and stuff.

Funny that schools are permitted to (even reequired to) promote homosexuality in the early grades, but any mention of Christmas or any other trapping of reprehensible religious excess is grounds for instantaneous litigation from the ACLU.

The student himself has demonstrated that he was 16 at the time he met the older man in question, which is the age of consent in Massachusetts. So, there's nothing here about statutory rape. (For what it's worth, the student has also said that he had no sexual contact with the older man. So it's kind of a moot point.) See here.

Concerning the "pro-homosexuality agenda" he espouses, if you did a little research, you might find that the education he advocates, as with most sex education advocated by liberals, is age-appropriate information about things like wanted and unwanted touching, attraction, romantic and non-romantic relationship building, asserting one's wants (in giving or withholding consent in relationships and/or sexual activities). Teaching children about sexuality is done with the hope (and with proven results: see the Netherlands) that with this information, kids won't think they're freaks for being attracted to people of the same sex, among other things.

So, the kind of thing you would have a problem with if you wanted to preserve the social stigma of non-heterosexual attraction and sexual expression of any kind from a woman.

Were you born this stupid or are you another victim of Americas system of "higher education"?
