Shame of the Nation:
Many sex-related stories captured popular attention in 2011. Most upsetting, many of the incidents involved sexual violence. Taken together, they indicate something bigger, deeper, taking place in America, a social crisis. It’s as if the body politic is moaning, declaring that sexual intimacy, too, is a terrain of the mounting social crisis.
A number of nonviolent incidents are illustrative. Most pathetic, the outing of Herman Cain for an increasing number of disturbing actions involving women (e.g., pay-offs related to sexual harassment suits and an extramarital “friendship” with a woman his wife didn’t know about) forced him out of the Republican presidential race. The Cain incident followed the outings of Congressmen Anthony Weiner (D-NY), Chris Lee (R-NY) and Mark Souder (R-IN) for inappropriate sex-related conduct, conduct that led to their resignations.

A state Governor and her appointees obstruct an investigation into repeated coverups of child rape. When they find they can no longer stave off the inevitable, they destroy the evidence. Along the way they try to have the prosecutor disbarred. The Governor later becomes a member of the President’s Cabinet. These are the makings of a major scandal that should be plastered across the front page of every newspaper in America. Instead, hardly anyone has heard of it. Why?
Lawyers for the state of Kentucky went back to court Thursday seeking to block the immediate release of hundreds of pages of uncensored records in cases involving child-abuse deaths and injuries — one day after Franklin Circuit Judge Phillip Shepherd ordered them produced for his review.Lawyers for the Cabinet for Health and Family Services said they want a chance to appeal any decision Shepherd makes about releasing records that contain details they believe should be withheld, or redacted.
