What hath Jennings wrought?

For years, groups like FRC have been making compelling arguments against same-sex “marriage.” And this week, a homosexual activist may have made the best one of all. “Recruiting children?” writes Daniel Villarreal. “You bet we are.” After accusing voters of overreacting to the dangers of same-sex “marriage,” one homosexual confessed that parents are right to be worried. “Can we please just start admitting that we do actually want to indoctrinate kids?” he says on Queerty. (Warning: link contains obscene language.)

“[Conservatives] accuse us of exploiting children and in response we say, ‘NOOO! We’re not gonna make kids learn about homosexuality, we swear! It’s not like we’re trying to recruit your children or anything.’ But let’s face it—that’s a lie. We want educators to teach future generations of children to accept queer sexuality. In fact, our very future depends on it… Why would we put anti-bullying programs or social studies classes that teach kids about the historical contributions of famous queers unless we wanted to deliberately educate children to accept queer sexuality as normal?”

If Americans don’t want to take our word on the real gay agenda, they can take Villarreal’s. Of course, most readers didn’t appreciate being “outed” on their real education strategy. By late yesterday, the article was flooded with angry comments from activists who wanted to keep the goal of perverting children under wraps. Fortunately for parents, that mission took a big step backwards yesterday with the departure of Safe Schools “czar” Kevin Jennings. After two scandal-plagued years, one of the President’s fiercest gay allies has finally resigned from his post to take a job with “Be the Change.”

Unfortunately for families, Jennings has already been the change that most parents feared. In his time with the Department of Education, the founder of the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) was an outspoken proponent for celebrating homosexuality in the classroom. With his history of drug abuse and religious bigotry, conservatives—including the 53 congressmen who fought to unseat him—won’t shed any tears at his goodbye party. Without Jennings, the homosexual community will lose its grip on a key foothold in the Obama administration. While FRC is relieved to see him go, the push to indoctrinate kids won’t go away when Kevin Jennings does. Make sure you’re prepared to spot the propaganda in your kids’ classrooms.
