Kevin Jennings is a homosexual and the poster boy for NAMBLA, the North American Man Boy Love Association of pedophiles. Child molesters. NAMBLA is exactly what it sounds like. It’s an organization that promotes sex between grown men and young boys. Once, when Jennings was teaching at a private school, a 15 year old male student told him that he was having sex with an “older man” he met in the restroom of a bus station. Jennings response was to encourage the boy to continue and advise him to wear a condom, instead of immediately reporting this to the police and protecting the child. Jennings is an outspoken admirer of Harry Hay, as in this speech he gave in 1997 after Hay’s death: “One of the people that’s always inspired me is Harry Hay, who started the first ongoing gay rights groups in America. In 1948, he tried to get people to join the Mattachine Society. It took him two years to find one other person who would join. Well, [in] 1993, Harry Hay marched with a million people in Washington, who thought he had a good idea 40 years before. Everybody thought Harry Hay was crazy in 1948, and they knew something about him which he apparently did not—they were right, he was crazy. You are all crazy. We are all crazy. All of us who are thinking this way are crazy, because you know what? Sane people keep the world the same [shitty] old way it is now.” “People will know you by the company you keep,” my grandmother told me. - Barack Hussein Obama Like that speech? Nice speech? A good example being set by another swell Obama appointee? And who is Harry Hay? He was a homosexual pedophile who was deeply involved in NAMBLA. He gave keynote speeches and led panel discussions at several NAMBLA conferences. He openly told stories about how wonderful his own experiences were as a young teenager having sex with adult men. He encouraged the gay rights movement to not exclude NAMBLA from the united front of rights for all sexual minorities. Three Homosexual Members of Obama’s Church (Rev Wright) Murdered Before Election Barack Hussein Obama has surrounded himself with the gutter scum of our society to help him CHANGE our government, and he said himself that we will know him by the company he keeps. He said that during his election campaign. Hey, Barry, I knew what you were all along. It’s trying to wake up my neighbors to the dragon in their midst that’s so hard, but with all the help you’re giving me and many others, I think we may just get there yet. • VICTORY: Gay "Safe Schools" office in US Dept. of Education gets funds cut, status demoted. massresistance.com ^ | 07/02/2011 | n/a Just weeks after Obama's "Safe Schools Czar" Kevin Jennings resigned as Obama's "Safe Schools Czar," the office he ran in the US Dept. of Education has been demoted after its funds were severely cut by Congress in the upcoming federal budget. Although it's difficult to pinpoint the exact amounts, it's estimated nearly three-quarters of the funding to Jennings' "Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools" is being cut by Congress in the upcoming 2012 budget!

His official biography mentions his role in creating an organization, the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which is supposed to provide factual information about the history of the “gay rights” movement to teachers and students. But the references to Hay in GLSEN literature fail to include anything about his CPUSA, pro-NAMBLA or Radical Faerie activities. • NY principal: 'God Bless the USA' offensive, Bieber’s 'Baby' acceptable for kindergarteners Daily Caller ^ | June 10, 2012 | Caroline May A Coney Island [Brooklyn, New York] principal has pulled Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” from a kindergarten “moving up” ceremony, out of concern that Greenwood’s patriotic song was age-inappropriate and potentially offensive. “We don’t want to offend other cultures,” teachers quoted Greta Hawkins, the principal of the Edna Cohen School, as saying to defend her decision to nix “God Bless the USA” from the ceremony, the New York Post reports. Greenwood’s song had been sung at previous school functions, and students in five classes reportedly spent months rehearsing for the moving up ceremony.

The newly formed Washington Unified Faculty Association (WUFA) will now bargain independently and rely on the non- union Association of American Educators for nonbargaining member benefits and services such as liability insurance and legal counsel.

Introduction The Tea Party is a grassroots political movement which has gained a considerable following since its inception in 2009.Its platform centers on a single issue -- greater fiscal responsibility and conservatism on the part of each respective level of government. In this paper we examine the question of whether or not the Tea Party will develop into a viable political entity. We concluded early on in the process of researching this paper that extensive statistical analysis would only be a fruitless endeavor because of the contemporaneity of the Tea Party movement.

  • A Student's Guide to the Tennessee
    The MembersA of theStudent’s Senate Guide to the Tennessee Senate 2013 Edition Welcome to the Tennessee Senate. Thank you for your interest in your government. My name is Ron Ramsey. I am the Lieutenant Governor of Tennessee. I have this job because a majority of my fellow senators voted for me to be their leader, or “Speaker.” Unlike many other states, Tennessee’s Lieutenant Governor is also head of its Senate. My duties as both Speaker of the Senate and Lieutenant Governor keep me very busy. However, because I am a state Senator, my job is officially part-time. Having a part-time legislature is good because it allows elected officials to spend time living and working under the laws they make and with the people they represent. When the legislature is not in session I run a real estate and auction business with my wife, Sindy, in my hometown of Blountville, which is right on the border between Virginia and Tennessee. It is a wonderful town and I am glad to be able to spend time there when the legislature is not in session. If you visit the Capitol on a day when the legislature is in session, you will see me presiding over the Senate. I have a gavel, and I do my best to keep Senate sessions moving along quickly and efficiently so my members can get back home to their families and businesses. I also make all of the Senate’s committee assignments. Much of the Senate’s work goes on in committees so it is important to have the right people working on the right issues.

    The Tea Party Movement and Entelechy: an Inductive Study of Tea Party Rhetoric By John Leyland Price M.A., Central Michigan University, 2013 B.S.B.A., Central Michigan University, 2010 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Communication Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Dr. Robert C. Rowland Dr. Beth Innocenti Dr. Brett Bricker Dr. Scott Harris Dr. Wayne Sailor Date Defended: 5 September 2019 ii The dissertation committee for John Leyland Price certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The Tea Party Movement and Entelechy: an Inductive Study of Tea Party Rhetoric Chair: Dr. Robert C. Rowland Date Approved: 5 September 7 2019 iii Abstract On February 19, 2009, CNBC journalist Rick Santelli’s fiery outburst against the Obama Administration on national television gave the Tea Party Movement (TPM) its namesake. Soon after rallies were organized across the U.S. under the Tea Party banner. From its inception in 2009, the TPM became an essential player in U.S. politics and pivotal in flipping control of the Senate and House to the Republican Party during the 2010 midterm elections. The movement faced controversy on both sides of the political spectrum for its beliefs and fervent stance against compromising with political adversaries. Researchers argued that the TPM was an example of Richard Hofstadter’s Paranoid Style. Others claimed that the movement’s rhetoric, member demographics, and political success demonstrated it was outside the boundaries of the Paranoid Style.

  • The Tea Party Movement: Leftist Attacks Fail to Stop Its Growing Infl Uence
    The Tea Party Movement: Leftist Attacks Fail to Stop its Growing Infl uence By Elizabeth Klimp Summary: In February 2009, a new force emerged in American politics. Alarmed at the rapid expansion of the federal government and frustrated by the Obama administration’s fi scal policies, Americans took to the streets in protests they called “Tea Parties.” This was a reference to the Boston Tea Party of 1773, which was the American colonists’ protest against excessive taxes imposed on them by an unrepresentative government. Since the Tea Party protests fi rst attracted widespread public attention, liberal advo- cacy groups and media commentators have tried to deny that it is a genuine grassroots movement. They charge that it is under the control of big money corporate donors and say it is motivated by race hatred rather than dedicated to limited government. Tea Party opponents are trying to discredit the move- ment and have disparaged Americans who are troubled by skyrocketing public spending. But their attacks are failing.

Box 97 State Capitol Covington, Tennessee 38019 Nashville, Tennessee 37243-0181 (901) 476-9593 (615) 741-3774 Nashville Office of the Speaker Welcome: On behalf of the 99 members of the Tennessee House of Representatives, I want to welcome you to the State Capitol and the House Chamber. During your visit, I hope you will take the time to observe the exquisite historical architecture you will find throughout the Capitol. Despite the stately appearance of the Capitol building, you will find that it serves the viable function for which it was erected in 1855. The House Chamber, in conjunction with the Legislative Plaza, is where your state legislators meet to study, debate, and pass the laws of Tennessee. Please remember that all Sessions of the General Assembly held in the Chamber, as well as all meetings held in the Legislative Plaza, are open to the public. I encourage you to attend a Session of the House of Representatives so that you can see how the legislative process works. I also encourage you to visit the state representative from your home district. You are more than welcome to meet with any of them to voice your opinion on an issue or for any other reason you may wish. If you are unable to attend a House Session, you can view our live video streaming through our website at www.legislature.state.tn.us. At this website, under the House menu, you can find a direct link to our live video streaming. Our website also includes links to current member and assembly information as well as publications of the House.
