In an earlier thread exposing the Liberal 'sky is falling' method of creating a crisis which doesn't exist...

....less attention was paid to the specific role the current administration played.
In the book "Injustice: Exposing the Racial Agenda of the Obama Justice Department," J. Christian Adams exposed the role of what is laughingly called 'the Department of Justice' in exactly what the subtitle of his book proclaims.
Now, the 'Campus Caller' adds another Obama department to the Hall of Shame.
1." .... top-ranking official at the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights has emerged as a potentially key figure in Rolling Stone’s false article, “A Rape on Campus.”
2. Catherine Lhamon, who heads the Department’s civil rights wing, was identified in a letter sent last month by University of Virginia Dean of Students Allen Groves to Steve Coll and Sheila Coronel, the two Columbia Journalism School deans who conducted a review of the Nov. 19 article, written by disgraced reporter Sabrina Rubin Erdely.
3. [University of Virginia Dean of Students Allen Groves] wrote that he has suffered “personal and professional” damage as a result of Erdely’s reporting and comments Lhamon made about him...
4. As the Rolling Stone article fell apart, Lhamon’s involvement has gone virtually unmentioned. But a deeper look reveals her ties to Emily Renda, a University of Virginia employee and activist who put Erdely in touch with Jackie, the student whose claim that she was brutally gang-raped by seven members of a fraternity....
5. ....Obama nominated Lhamon to become the Education Department’s Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights in July 2013. ...She has served as the Education Department’s designee to the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault which Obama created on Jan. 22, 2014. Renda served on the same task force.
6. Renda and Lhamon also testified at a June 26, 2014, Senate hearing on campus sexual assault. It was at that hearing that Renda cited Jackie’s story that she was brutally gang-raped by five fraternity members....
7. During her testimony, Lhamon claimed that “The best available research suggests that 20% of college women, and roughly 6% of college men, are victims of attempted or completed sexual assault.” That “one-in-five” claim about the prevalence of sexual assault on campus has been heavily disputed.
[Actually, an outright lie....one of those Liberal manufactured crises.]
8. Lhamon’s and Renda’s coverage of two different aspects to campus sexual assault highlights exactly what Erdely tried — but failed — to accomplish with her article. The reporter used Jackie’s story about a gang-rape to introduce readers to what she asserted was a systemic failure on the part of universities, police, and society to prevent and investigate sexual assault.
9. "Groves pointed to the next passage in Erdely’s piece which includes commentary from Lhamon about his remarks. She told Erdely that his comments were a “deliberate and irresponsible” mischaracterization of her agency’s investigation into sexual assault at UVA."

One can only look hopefully toward a time when the lies and machinations of Liberals, Democrats, fall on deaf ears and alienate the very victims of their lies who, currently, support them.
