Seizing “Statutory Rape” Zeitgeist, Right Hones Latest, Gayest Czar Attack

Well look at this! We were totally right — it happens sometimes — and conservatives are firing up their attacks on Kevin Jennings, the nation’s gay “safe school czar.” And they’re using terms like “statutory rape.” How timely!

Jennings once lived life as a closeted school teacher. And, at the time — 1988 — a student told Jennings that he had consensual sex with an “older man” in a public bathroom. Jennings told the student to use a condom and later wrote in his book, that the student “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.”

Now, perhaps inspired by all the hoopla over Roman Polanski‘s arrest, the right’s throwing it all back in Jennings’ face. The Washington Times editorialized this week:

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.
…
His job in the Obama administration is to ensure student safety, and this scandal directly calls into question his ability to perform that job. Mr. Jennings and Obama administration officials refuse to answer any questions about this newly discovered evidence. A lot of Americans want answers about this guy and how he was approved for a job in the White House.

The paper also claims that Jennings “has made extremely radical statements promoting homosexuality in schools,” an allusion to Jennings work as the founder of Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, which tries to teach America’s little punks that gay folk and straight folk are the same. How radical.

Sensing backlash on the horizon, Jennings released a statement today expressing his regret over the situation:

Twenty one years later I can see how I should have handled this situation differently. I should have asked for more information and consulted legal or medical authorities. Teachers back then had little training or guidance about this kind of thing. All teachers should have a basic level of preparedness. I would like to see the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools play a bigger role in helping to prepare teachers.

As we all know, though, White House critics are not that easily deterred. Sean Hannity tonight used his show to claim that Jennings “covered up a statutory rape” and called for him to be fired:

Now, as The Washington Times said, ‘At the very least, statutory rape occurred,’ and he didn’t report it. Now he’s saying that he made a mistake, only because it’s been reported on. My question is, where’s the vetting process? Why was he even put in this position?

Duh! Because Obama’s a socialist who wants to destroy this once-great nation by working with anarchists and fags and all sorts of other bad people. Why do people even have to ask?

But, seriously, if all these people are so concerned about the nation’s youth, focus your energies on examining why a gay kid would feel the only sexual outlet he can find comes from anonymous sex in a bathroom. Demonizing Jennings — and his gayness — will only teach younger readers and viewers that same-sex loving’s nothing but trouble.

Maria Menounos is Art

I don’t care what anyone says, celebrity Maria Menounos is art in my book. Just check out these pics I stumbled across from some unknown photoshoot. She is so sexy that I think we should reconsider filling the Smithsonian with nothing but pictures of Maria Menounos! Or just give her credit for everything in there, so that her photo appears with every exhibit. Who discovered America? Maria Menounos. Who evented the Internet? Why, Maria Menounos, of course. See, there are so many reasons to adore her!

How the Swine Flu Joined Glenn Beck and the Huffington Post

Combine two dashes of the Huffington Post‘s culty, medicine-fearing “Living” section and one dash of Fox News’ craziest host, and you’ve got Love in the Time of Swine Flu. Not even Dr. Dean Ornish could stop these paranoid fellow-travelers.

It would seem, you see, that pundits on right-wing Fox News and lefty Huffington Post have arrived at the same place with regard to Swine Flu vaccines: They are dangerous and should be avoided!

Attached, find a clip of Fox’s Glenn Beck riling up a studio audience against “this government’s” flu shots, and saying the vaccines are kind of barbaric and backward.

And over here on HuffPo you can find “Dr. Frank Lipman” saying much the same thing: He advises “NO!” against swine flu vaccines (in bold and caps), due to an unholy alliance between the government and “the Pharmaceutical Industry” (again with the caps). But he does say “yes” to Vitamin D supplements, fish oil, “antiviral herbal supplements,” “a probiotic daily… with 10-20 billion organisms,” and a reads supply of “homeopathic Oscillococcinum.”

Astronomer and former HuffPo contributor Phil Plait calls this “far-left New Age… antivax nonsense” over on Discover Magazine’s website, advising, sensibly, that people consult their actual personal doctors on the matter. Controversy also dogged HuffPo’s health coverage back in May, when another Living section writer suggested treating swine flu with colon cleanses. The writer, who just happened to be selling a cleanse book, was duly rebuked by a doctor writing for Salon.com.

At the time, we noted that the Living section, in which both these controversial swine flu articles have appeared, was stocked by writers recruited by Huffpo “Senior Editor At Large” Russell Bishop John Morton, a disciple of the Movement for Spiritual Inner Awareness, to which HuffPo publisher Arianna Huffington belongs. At least one Living section editor has reportedly been forced by Huffington to attend an “Insight” seminar, organized by a group with close ties to MSIA.

Former members have called MSIA a cult of personality around leader John-Roger (pictured, left, with Huffington in 2004), who acolytes believe can heal the ill and who is said to eschew Western medicine. One ex-member described in his memoir John-Roger scolding him for using prescription drugs, rather than just a “natural… nutritionist,” to rid himself of parasites contracted on a trip Africa (see the end of this post for more).

We’d hoped HuffPo’s new medical editor Dr. Dean Ornish, who joined in August, could improve HuffPo’s health coverage. It’s not clear if he signed off on this latest article; we’re curious what his thoughts are. Perhaps he’ll leave a comment here as he did on our last post. In the meantime we’ll enjoy observing the comical similarities between the people near the furthest edges of Fox News and HuffPo.

White Lions Share a Loving Embrace

A volunteer at a South African Lion park captured this lovely image of two White Lions sharing a loving embrace. Eliane Graham took the photo in January 2009 whilst volunteering at The Lion Park in Lanseria, South Africa. The park specialises in raising white lions and the two lions in this photograph were born and raised at the park. Eliane’s role at the park is to prepare food for the lion cubs, feed them, clean out their enclosures and interact with them. White lions are not alibinos. They have a recessive gene which causes their white coats and they were hunted to extinction due to their colour so there are now various programmes in place to try to reintroduce them back into the wild.
