Meanwhile, his orchestrated rape of America on other fronts, including our wide-open border, is ongoing. Obama sez "It's on us" when it comes to stopping sexual assault. . Women (and men) can now relax and be assured that they'll be safe. Thank God for Barack Hussein Obama!
Forget that thousands of immigrants and criminals and terrorists are flooding across our borders as we speak due to Obama's policies and executive order edicts...among them are no doubt yet more rapists and murderers. Ones that have not already been apprehended and then set free by Obama, that is.
But hey....at least we can all rest easy in the knowledge that he's going to "fix" that sexual assault on campus thingy, eh? Whew! And what better way to "fix" it than to get a few Hollyweird celebrities on board that liberal loon train.
Yes, folks. Apparently, one of the biggest threats this nation now faces is college campus sexual assaults. Nice to know Obama has his priorities straight, in between tee times.
Hamm, other stars join campaign against assault
WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House has enlisted Hollywood stars including Jon Hamm of "Mad Men" and Connie Britton of "Nashville" to help fight campus sexual assault.
President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are unveiling the "It's On Us" campaign Friday at a White House event.
A website that went live Friday morning, ItsOnUs.org, features a public service announcement with Obama, Biden and other familiar faces telling viewers it's their responsibility to stop sexual assault. The star power also includes NBA all-star Kevin Love, actresses Kerry Washington, Rose Byrne and Mayim Bialik, comedian Joel McHale and musicians Randy Jackson and Questlove.
With an estimated one in five college women attacked, the campaign encourages everyone on campus to make sure friends are safe and to intervene before an assault happens. The message is particularly targeted at men, with the White House pointing to research that shows that men are often reluctant to speak out against violence against women because they believe other men accept it.
"It's on us to stop sexual assault," Hamm says in a close-up shot that opens the video.
"To get in the way before it happens," Washington continues.
Others chime in to encourage viewers to make sure friends get home safe and not to blame the victim or look the other way. Obama closes the video by referring to the pledge and the website.
The campaign is being supported by partners who plan to help spread the message, including the NCAA, several collegiate athletic conferences and media companies with reach among students. The NCAA plans to promote anti-assault messages on screens at their championship events. Video game maker Electronic Arts will encourage fans to sign up to pledge to support the campaign through its online platforms. And media giant Viacom will promote the messages on websites, including for music channels MTV, VH1, BET and CMT.
