More CFNM porn fiction by DJW, the CFNM sex-fetishist.We had a female
school matron who had seemingly unrestricted access to the pool
whether boys or girls were swimming.She appeared on numerous
occasions,and I clearly recall her saying to us boys one day that
there wasn't a lad who had been to the school in th 12 years she had
worked there who she hadn't known in his entirity.We all knew what
that meant!About 3 times a year we would have the matron check the
soles of our bare feet prior to our lesson,when we would kneel in a
line along a bench.Not one of us liked it.Oh,and guess what,we were
ready to swim at the time,so naked.Now why did we have to be naked to
have our feet looked at exactly??On a number of occasions rumours
circulated that we would be getting our penises checked out by her
too.It stayed a rumour,thankfully.The simple fact is that there were a
lot of us boys who never got used to this behaviour by our school
teachers and staff.Boys could be stripped,poked about,looked at etc as
if we had no care about it.But girls,well it was a world of
difference.No naked swimming,nice swimwear of their choice,voluntary
showering,and nice gym kits too.They could have trainers in the
gym,boys were compulsory bare feet,and bare chested.Many gym lessons
were mixed,so it mattered.The boys were the "meat" to be checked
over.Lots of boys don't like taking their shirts off and going
barechested,but were given no choice.Why?This was an English school up
to 1986.Will post again and would love feedback.Thanks for reading!
Bob: Were Boys Forced to Attend School Swim Lessons Completely Nude?

I dont deal in fetish it is time to compensate all those who endured nude swimming or nude showers at school Censored, Join me!
SCHOOL pupils were ordered to strip down to their underwear by a teacher...because a ballpoint pen had gone missing.
Sixteen boys, aged 12 and 13, had to remove their red jumpers
Two girls in the class were taken to another room and their school bags were inspected. But the pen - the third that had gone missing from the class - was not found. Furious parents protested about the strip-search. Teacher Peter adams now faces disciplinary action at Cardinal Wiseman Roman Catholic School in Coventry.
Dad Jim Lennon, whose son Kevin, 12, is in the class, said last night: "I could hardly believe it when he told me.
"Every one of the children denied taking the pen - and they were told to start taking off their clothes. The teacher told them not to laugh or they would all be sent home."
Mum April Maddison said her 12-year-old son Paul was forced to strip down to his boxer shorts boxer shorts
men's underpants shaped like shorts but with a front opening
She added: "He was upset and didn't want to go back to school today."
The pupils had just finished a French lesson when it was realised that her Parker pen had gone missing.
No one owned up to having it, so the French teacher called in Mr Adams, the deputy head of year.
Mr Adams, who has taught at the school for 25 years, has now apologised for his "misjudgment
It is thought he will get a formal warning.
Head Tony Riley said the action was "totally out of character and probably done in frustration".
There was "no question" of sexual impropriety.
http://www.thisissurreytoday.co.uk/Oxted-Scho... Friday, May 25, 2012
A 14-YEAR-OLD girl at Oxted School was forced to strip down to her underwear by two members of staff because they suspected her of stealing a phone, according to the child's mother.
It is alleged that the girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was asked to enter a teacher's office by two female members of staff
She was alleged to have been forced to strip down, spread her legs and arms and spin around while the two women looked on.
When the pupil got home later that day, she told her mother about it. Her mother immediately contacted a deputy head teacher at the school, only to be told that they had not been informed of the incident.
Surrey-based QC June Venters said that in her opinion the school had gone too far and questioned if the staff members had the power to act in the way they did. She said: "I believe the girl should have had the right to contact her parents and I feel they've gone too far. I think they must have breached their own internal guidelines."
Police officers who forced teenage students to strip, some of them completely naked, in the hunt for a stolen 5 at a school in Munich are now being investigated themselves after pupils and their parents complained.
Police offers were at the Friedrich-List Economics School last Tuesday to talk to a class of 27 students aged 13 and 14 about moral courage in a public setting, when one girl complained that 5 was missing from her jacket pocket.
This prompted the youth liaison officer to call for back-up and organize a strip-search of the teenagers. Four officers split the pupils according to gender and searched them in separate classrooms.
Some of the schoolgirls had to briefly open their bras,while some schoolboys had their underpants searched,police spokesman Wolfgang Wenger told the paper.
One 14-year-old boy told the paper a police officer had looked up his backside with a torch after he had initially refused to take his underpants off.
pupils told the Süddeutsche Zeitung they all had to take off their Tshirts and trousers and that in some cases their genitals have been checked.

Can't wait for the next episode. Hopefully the boys will be supervised in the shower by a clothed female and forced to take a dump in full view of their classmates.

Because this is the same sort of bullshit that DJW and others want to believe, albeit with slightly more detail than offered by the so-called factual articles and the phony histories that DJ posts unceasingly.

Its time you condemned all sexual terrorism against boys both foreign and domestic.
Are you man or Maltamon?
There must be no return to the forced male swim in schools!
Date Posted: 03:01:01 10/20/12 Sat
I can attest to being a HS student at Grover Cleveland HS in Ridgewood NY 1960-1964 where a requirement to graduate was to pass a swimming class. The classes were segregated in a basement indoor pool and the boys were not allowed suits. The coach lined us up and had us bend and spread cheeks to check for 12 oclock shadow! Once done, we all took our instructions in the pool. At the end of the period, we would all leave through a door to the boys locker room where everyone took a mass shower.
The female students entered from the girls locker room wearing 1 piece suits during alternate periods. We got to see them once when the coach couldn't find his keys to unlock the door to boys lockeroom and the girls came in while we were trying to get out. I still remember the looks and snickers from some of the girls when seeing us in the hallways fully clothed and wondering if they were laughing at our manhood or lack thereof.

This topic draws some of the most heated debates on history. On the extreme one side you have those that tell farcical stories of institutions forcing boys to swim naked in front of females replete with clearly Photoshopped photos. One the other extreme you have uneducated yet highly vociferous know-it-alls that are too lazy to research and educate themselves so they simply call others liars based upon their unfounded reasoning.
As with anything, the truth is somewhere in between.
I have spent years assembling every historical news article, journal, history book passages, un-doctored photos, and rare historical film clips on this matter. The entire archives are discussed and set forth in a detailed website here:
The website not only presents much historical proof, but also has instructions on how readers can check the authenticity of all the articles and pictorial material presented by conducting their own research on Internet archives.
Based upon the many detailed articles you can read for yourself, here is the most probable truth:
1. In the US and many European countries, it was standard practice for all males to swim nude up until about the 1870s. Women sometimes were present, but in general, were segregated. Woman also swam nude in the 1700s, but bathing costumes were created and through most of the latter 1700s and thereafter, women typically wore them.
2. Up until the 1920s, in many parts of the UK and Europe (less so in the US), it was common for boys up to anywhere from 10 to 15 to swim in the nude, even when girls were present swimming with them. There are a several news articles on this, such as an 1886 one where an American complains about his daughter being surrounded by naked boys on a British beach, and couldn't understand how his British friends thought nothing of letting their daughter play with the naked boys, but that they drew the line when the nude boys were of an age of 15. Stories of Jane Austen's era indicated that in Bath, an ordinance had to be passed that no boys over the age of 10 would be allowed to swim nude in the public baths thereafter. There are also some historical photos (Getty) on the site showing boys playing naked in the fountain at Trafalgar Square in 1919 alongside girls; a 1920s era photo showing 17 completely naked boys up to about 12 or so in age splashing about with two girls (clothed) in their teens as their families sit on the banks and watch them.

More CFNM porn fiction from proud CFNM sex fetishist, DJW.
#519 Dec 4, 2012
DJW, Now you hope to order law enforcement, POW camps, mental health hospitals and drug rehabilitation centers to cease all strip-searches? I don't like them either when they aren't necessary, such as the only time I was ever strip-searched (at the age of 19, at Heathrow Airport), but often they are necessary. Your fixation is obvious, as is your "wink" to your fellow nude-boy fetishists with your feogned over-the-top outrage with regard to all situations involving full or partial nudity. And abolish all displays of underwear in schools? Schools throughout the US are bending over backwards to prevent boys from displaying their underwear-clad asses by requiring them to wear trousers fastened at the waist rather than allowing them to sag below their bottoms, as most teenaged boys prefer them. You are out of sych with the times in which you live, my friend.

Maltamon no pupil should be forced to go nude, topless or show underwear to someone of the same sex or opposite gender. If strip searches need to be done they should be done in the police station and for serious offences like class A drugs, firearms and terrorism not the loss of a $5 note or parker pen.
Degrading nude swims and swim test like what used to happen at Cornell university should also be consigned to the past!
U. Ezra,
My friend's father attended Cornell from 1970-1974. He swears on his soul that when he took the famous swimming test everyone was required to take the test naked ! I attended CU from '97-'01 and I certainly wasn't naked when I took the swimming test. Did Cornell (or the CU Athletic Dept., or a particular swimming coach etc..) ever require students to take the test naked ? If so, why?
Dear swimsuit on,
Surprise, your friend's father is not pulling your Big Red leg, he probably did take the swim test naked! According to Al Gantert, Director of Physical Education, there was a period of time where men used to go naked for all men's P. E. aquatic activities, including the swim test. While it seems surprising now, it was just "one of those things" at the time. Sometime during the 1970s, it just sort of changed, and swimming with your swim trunks on became the policy.
Women have had to take the swim test for as long as the men have, and they have always worn their swimsuits. However, women were originally required to swim four lengths, each length using a different stroke; the men were required to jump in and swim two lengths of any stroke they liked. Eventually a compromise was made, and everyone was required to complete the same test, which is still used today:
-Jump in feet first
-Swim 3 lengths, one on your front, one on your back, one of your choice
You can swim using any stroke your wish including the doggie paddle. No points will be added or subtracted for style. The swim test is still a requirement for graduation as approved by the University Faculty. And yes, the women have always taken their swim test in a different location than the men...
Uncle Ezra
#522 Dec 5, 2012
In this one sentence, DJW sums up what a twisted view of gender differences he has. He sees no difference between going nude or even topless in front of the SAME SEX or the opposite sex?? Try and find logic in that.
No wonder such a confused, traumatized individual became a CFNM sex fetishist.
#523 Dec 5, 2012
No logic beyond the adolescent trauma that left him, as an adult, at once raging obsessively against the terrible injustice that he perceives in any situation that requires the exposure of a boy's skin below the neck in the presence of others, regardless of the reason, AND sexually obsessed with scenarios involve boys having to strip completely nude in the presence of others. Any competent shrink would affirm that the manifestation of these two seemingly opposing obsessions actually is typical of those who experienced that sort of sexual trauma. Sadly, the sexual trauma has fucked him up for life.

It's Sink or Swim for College Students Who Must Pass Swim Tests to Graduate
Share on linkedinMore Sharing Services
By Catherine Groux
Posted November 30, 2012 05:00 PM
Some students still need to pass a swim test to graduate.Today, students who want to earn a bachelor's degree at New York's Cornell University not only need to pass all of their courses, but pass a swim test or enroll in a beginner's swim course as well, The Wall Street Journal reports.
While there is no official count of how many U.S. colleges still make students pass a swim test in order to graduate, a 1997 survey by North Carolina State University professors shows that only about 5% of all four-year schools follow the tradition. Among these colleges are the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Columbia University and the University of Notre Dame, the Journal reports.
Each school has its own variation of what exactly the swimming test entails. At Cornell, students must swim three lengths in the 25-yard pool with no time restriction. Women who attend Pennsylvania's Bryn Mawr College, on the other hand, must swim continuously for 10 minutes, float on their backs for one minute and tread water for one minute.
Cornell's website states that the swim test requirement was first mandated for women in 1918, when the school's director of women's physical education stated that swimming was a necessary skill for all women to possess. The need to learn how to swim only became more important to the school after World War II, as many students served overseas. Subsequently, the swim test was deemed mandatory for male students in 1937.
While the swim test requirement was enacted decades ago, faculty have since upheld the decision to include it in Cornell's graduation requirements.
"Anything that prevents people from dying needlessly is a valuable skill," Fred DeBruyn, director of aquatics and assistant physical education director at Cornell, told the Journal.
Although some schools continue to uphold the century-old tradition, other colleges across the country have dropped the unusual graduation requirement. For example, the University of Chicago recently announced that it would drop its requirement that students swim 100 yards or take a swim class before receiving their diplomas. The news came as a welcome announcement for university graduates like Hassan Ali, who does not feel he should have had to swim for his diploma.
"Entering college is intimidating enough, let alone getting half-naked in front of your peers and trying to prove your physical acumen,"
Ali told the Chicago Tribune.
Still, the University of Chicago is far from the only school to nix its swim requirement. In 2005, New York's Colgate University eliminated the graduation qualification, calling it "arbitrary and indefensible," the Journal states. In the past, schools like Harvard University have come to the same conclusion, opting to throw in the towel on their swim tests.
Lets campaign Maltamom to stop universities forcing students to get half naked to get a degree or take a cleansing nude shower!
It degrades muslims.

Alaska Roadtrip, Keeping It Basic
Today I was thinking about how much fun we had last summer on our roadtrip to Alaska and it dawned on me I was busy planning that trip last year at this time. Really, any trip involving many days and miles requires a planning timetable of several months instead of weeks. I read blogs, books set in the north, travel books, Alaska tourist information and maps. Definitely helpful and so exciting.
With the thought that starting early is important, I decided to post the last entry of my Alaska 2011 blog from our trip. Some of the information there might be of interest to those thinking of planning a similar trip this summer. Feel free to visit the link for additional information and pictures.
"We left on July 6th driving a 2001 Ford ¾ ton diesel pickup with 182,099 miles on the speedometer. On the back of the pickup we carried a 2005 850SC NorthStar popup pickup camper. Obviously, we saw no need to have new equipment.
We returned on August 17th after 39 days. The ending mileage was 192,102. Here is the summary.
We drove 10,002 miles, used 666.725 gallons of fuel, averaging 15.001 miles per gallon and $4.522 per gallon for diesel, for a total of $3015.00. (I converted all of Canada's metric figures to keep it equal.) I guess the reason I found these figures interesting is because I saved $3,000 for the trip but with higher fuel prices, I figured that amount would probably only pay for the fuel. Right on there!
We decided to convert $1,500 to Canadian money just to have the cash available. The rate was $1.06 American for each $1 Canadian. That amount of money paid for all fuel, camping fees and Canadian groceries except for two credit card charged fuel fills. At the border, coming home, we had enough change to buy a bottle of Crown Royal at the duty free shop. (It was a small bottle:)
I did not keep accurate records on other expenditures. However, we roughly figured how many nights we paid for camp spots, restaurant meals and misc expenses and $1,000 would almost cover it. (I don't count groceries because we have to eat at home).
So, bottom line, in this (last) summer's economy, it took close to $4,000 for the trip.
Another expense I am not counting toward the total is the cost of shipping our salmon home. It cost about $10.50 per pound. It is our salmon, the fish we actually caught. So many companies put the fish in bulk processing. I appreciate knowing how they were handled. Frozen wild-caught sockeye salmon in stores cost $6 to $7 a pound so it isn't too bad"

Enjoyed your trip; we did the same thing in 2006. Gone 27 days from Lawrence, Ford 250 Diesel, 10623 total miles.
Nailed Jayhawk license plate at Watson Lake, Yukon sign display; several other KUs already there! Drove the entire Alaska Highway! Saw plenty of moose, caribou, dall sheep, wolves, black and grizzly bears, woodland bison, musk ox and 1 lynx. Drove to some really remote towns in Yukon: Mayo, Faro, Keno, Dawson City! Camped 19 nights, in high top camper shell, no soft-sided tents need apply! Toured Denali but too cloudy to see Mt. McKinley! Drove up the Dalton Highway following the pipeline to above the Arctic Circle! Ran into 3 guys from Kansas in remote Yukon who were bicycling all the way to Alaska! Topped off tanks in Watson Lake, no service for next 293 km on Yukon Highway 4. Fished in Homer for salmon and halibut, 2 haibut over 100 lbs! (just babies)., Shipped back! Got the honorary cracked windshield! Took several washings to get the fine mud off the truck! Thankfully, did not see Sarah in Wasilla! Liked both Fairbanks and Anchorage!
Would do it again, but maybe ferry the truck up from Vancouver or Prince Rupert to Skagway, stopping off in Juneau, Ketchikan, Sitka and Glacier Bay!
Linda Hanney 4 years, 4 months ago
blindrabbit, great summation of your trip. We feel we should have spent a little more time north as you did. Actually think we'll do it again in a year or so and ferry the truck as well.
cigard 4 years, 4 months ago
My son and I did the same thing in 2009. We left 07/06 and returned 08/17, Didn't drive as many miles as you guys but your adventure brought back a lot of memories. The best thing I did was create a daily blog of our trip - check it out:
You'll see a lot of similar things - Homer, Soldotna, Seward, the Alskan highway. We also went on up to Denali and rafted. I had the best time a dad could have. My family has lived in Alska since 1973 and I never get tired of going up there on visits. I've been there in all the seasons - go in the summer, lots of light and fun thihgs to do.
Alaska is pretty indescribably, thank you for posting your trip. Crc

I use to do a lot of motorcycle tent camping. My freinds and I motored all through Arkansas, Missouri and little in Kansas. We use to sneer and make fun of all those Rv'ers. After this trip I'll never sleep in a tent again. RVing is a great way to travel. Your blog brought back a lot of cherished memories, thanks again.
Linda Hanney 4 years, 4 months ago
cigard, I just have to come back again to your comment. We actually have a Kwik Kamp that we pull behind our Corolla to do some low cost, surrounding state roadtrips. I'll share a little about that another time. It sounds like you could have some input there as well.

I'm highly interested in this plugin (been looking at Editz, but development stopped a long time ago) and I'm going to be invested in making it better and ready for production.
First bug: the theme selection doesn't select the theme that is currently active in the options. It just defaults to Light. So even if you change it and submit the form, it comes back as Light instead of the theme you just selected.

Good 3.4 /5 from 109 reviews
Standard room, easy check in/out. Clean.
Hotel in need of updating. It's defiently an older hotel. The front desk staff was very nice. We got the 3 queen beds in 1 room. Layout was bad. And couldn't get out of bathroom door if someone was using sink. The price we paid was to high for this hotel. Pool was freezing. Great location to freeway & restaurant on site.
adequate for a road trip stop, basics only
The rooms were clean but the air conditioning didn't work very well. The trash bins were full outside every door. The doors to outside were propped open all the time i think because key cards didn't always work, but I am not completely sure. The breakfast was cold cereal, cold coffee, and cold sausages.

Definition of immaterialism in English:
noun[mass noun]
The belief that matter has no objective existence.
Example sentences
- There is less agreement on Berkeley's argumentative approach to idealism and immaterialism and on the role of some of his specific arguments.
- In 1709 he issued An Essay towards a New Theory of Vision, followed in the next year by The Principles of Human Knowledge, the main exposition of his immaterialism.
- What had touched the world's hearts was the ethereal immaterialism of their secluded world and something primal in the music they sang.
- Example sentences
- He was an immaterialist: matter does not exist.
- Philonous needs to convince him (as Berkeley needed to convince his readers in both books) that a commonsensical philosophy could be built on an immaterialist foundation, that no one but a skeptic or atheist would ever miss matter.
- Rather, it's that the good arguments don't even get a hearing since they offer an immaterialist account, and immaterialist accounts can't really be knowledge.

A daily glance inside the numbers from the world of sports:
• Allen Iverson had 32 points in the Sixers' 88-75 victory against the Hawks on Wednesday night. It was Iverson's third straight 30-point performance in a season opener, the longest such streak for any player since Michael Jordan began three straight seasons in that fashion from 1995-96 through 1997-98.
• The Hawks dropped their season opener for the eighth straight year, the longest such losing streak for any franchise in NBA history. Atlanta snapped the mark of seven consecutive season-opening losses that it had shared with Detroit (1960-66), Cleveland (1979-85), Utah (1982-88) and the Clippers (1997-2003).
• Vince Carter had game-high totals of 25 points and 11 rebounds to complement Jason Kidd's triple-double in the Nets' 102-92 win over the Raptors. Last season, Carter and Kidd each had a double-digit rebound total in the same game on two occasions, while all other starting-guard tandems throughout the league did it once (Chris Paul and Rasual Butler for the Hornets).
• The Bulls followed their 108-66 opening-night victory at Miami with a 109-94 loss at Orlando. Chicago's 15-point margin of defeat was the largest for any NBA team that won its preceding game by at least 40 points since April 1996, when the Knicks backed up a 125-79 win against the Raptors with a 92-77 loss at Cleveland.
• The Cavaliers defeated the Wizards 97-94 and held Gilbert Arenas without a point until late in the third quarter (after he shot 0-for-5 from the floor during the first half). Over the past two seasons, Arenas played only one game in which he failed to score a point in the first half.
Cleveland has won consecutive season openers for the first time since winning three in a row from 1986-87 through 1988-89. That was the only time in Cavaliers franchise history that they won their season opener in three straight years.
• Ron Artest made only 6 of 24 shots from the floor in Sacramento's 92-83 loss at Minnesota. It was only the second time in his career that Artest missed as many as 18 field-goal attempts in one game. He hit 9 of 27 shots from the floor against the Lakers on Feb. 2, 2004.
• It took three extra periods for the Knicks to defeat the Grizzlies 118-117. In NBA history, only one other season opener went into triple OT. That was on Oct. 18, 1974, when Portland beat Cleveland 131-129 in four overtimes.
• Kobe Bryant was on the bench for the Lakers' victory at Golden State. During the post-Shaq era in L.A. (since 2004-05), the Lakers are a .500 team with Kobe on the court (73-73) compared to four games south of .500 in the games he's missed (8-12).
• Evgeni Malkin scored two goals, including the game-winner, in Pittsburgh's 4-3 overtime victory at Los Angeles. Malkin became the first player since the 1917-18 season to begin his NHL career with goals in each of his first six games. That's when the Canadiens' Joe Malone established the all-time record by scoring goals in his first 14 NHL games.
Among those who made their NHL debuts since 1979-80 (the dawn of the Gretzky era), no other player achieved a six-game goal scoring streak fewer than 25 games into his career. The player who did it the quickest over that span (prior to Malkin) was Sergei Nemchinov, in his 25th game for the 1991-92 Rangers.
Five current NHL players each with more than 350 career goals have never had a goal-scoring streak longer than five games: Brendan Shanahan (608 goals), Sergei Fedorov (444), Rod Brind'Amour (386), Scott Mellanby (358) and Trevor Linden (357).
• Brind'Amour scored two goals and assisted on two others for the Hurricanes in their 5-2 win at Atlanta. It was the 1,200th game of Brind'Amour's NHL career, but only the fourth game in which he had both two goals and two assists. His most recent game of that ilk was in January 1998 for the Flyers.
• Marian Hossa had 16 shots on goal (and one goal) in Atlanta's loss to Carolina. It was the highest shot total by one player in an NHL game since Ray Bourque set the league record with 19 for Boston in a 3-3 tie with Quebec on March 21, 1991. Two players had recorded 15 shots in one game since Bourque's record effort: Dave Andreychuk for Toronto in March 1993, and Alexander Ovechkin earlier this season.
• Chris Chelios earned his first point of the season, assisting on Johan Franzen's first-period goal in the Red Wings' 3-2 win over the Flames. Chelios, who hadn't been listed in the scoring detail in any of his previous 10 games this season, snapped the longest start-of-season point drought of his career. Last year, Chelios was held without a point in his first nine games.
• The Avalanche beat the Blue Jackets in Columbus 5-3 despite being outshot 44-22. It was Colorado's first win in a game in which it was outshot by at least a two-to-one margin since Jan. 4, 2003, when Patrick Roy and the Avs won at San Jose, 6-1, even though the Sharks had a 41-19 edge in shots.
• Tomas Kaberle found the net for the third straight game as the Maple Leafs posted a 4-2 victory over the Lightning. Kaberle is only the fourth defenseman since 1990-91 to score five goals over a three-game span. The others were Brian Leetch (1996-97), Sandis Ozolinsh (2000-01) and Andy Sutton (2003-04). No Toronto defenseman had done that since Ian Turnbull in 1976-77.
• Mike Modano scored a goal in the Stars' 4-1 win over St. Louis. Modano has 31 career goals (in 83 games) against the Blues, second-most among active players, behind Jeremy Roenick (32 goals). Rounding out the top five are Sergei Fedorov (26), Joe Nieuwendyk (26) and Tony Amonte (25).

Crazy By Association
When I saw a press release announcing that Alan Keyes was going to be in South Carolina campaigning for a woman named Christina Jeffrey who is running Congress, my first thought was "wow, she must be crazy."
After all, no sane candidate would ever seek the assistance of someone like Keyes and expect to win, so I did a little research to try and found out a little about her on her website:
In these difficult economic times, the citizens in the Up-state of South Carolina deserve better representation in Congress. Christina Jeffrey, with a PhD. in Political Science and a college professor, is a person who has built her life based upon Conservative Principles.
Christina has worked in Germany and Turkey, and understands the international problems we are confronted with today. Christina has been a college professor for many years. She has been a tenured Associate Professor of Political Science at Kennesaw State University in Georgia, and the Congressional Historian for the 104th Congress of the United States. She currently teaches Foundations of American Government at Wofford College.
What I also found out was that her claim to have been the "Congressional Historian for the 104th Congress of the United States" leaves out a few key pieces of information ... like the fact that she held the job for less than two weeks before she was fired by Newt Gingrich:
Fired by Speaker Newt Gingrich as House historian because she complained Nazi views weren't represented in a Holocaust course, Christina Jeffrey said Tuesday that allegations against her ``are slanderous and outrageous.''
In a statement the morning after her firing, Jeffrey, who was hired less than a week ago, also said she was ``fired in the press.''
Reporters, who received materials from Democratic sources, began making inquiries to Gingrich's office after learning of Jeffrey's review of the Holocaust course in 1986.
House Democrats quickly pounced on her eight-year-old review, one saying it bordered on Holocaust revision.
Jeffrey, hired at $85,000 a year, headed a panel that reviewed the Holocaust course for the Republican-run U.S. Department of Education. The panel recommended against a federal grant for the course and the department -- insisting the decision was its own -- declined funding in 1986 and again the next two years.
Concluding her remarks on ``Facing History and Ourselves'' a course designed for eighth and ninth graders, Jeffrey wrote: ``The program gives no evidence of balance or objectivity. The Nazi point of view, however unpopular, is still a point of view and is not presented, nor is that of the Ku Klux Klan.''
While Jeffrey insisted at the time and continues to insist that her remarks were taken wildly out of context, this does at least shed some light on just what sort of political candidate openly welcome the support of someone like Keyes.
