Good. Joe Paterno should be gone today too. But I guess football is more important than child rape.

Penn State trustees allegedly silenced board president in sex abuse case

Corbett breaks silence on Penn State

Corbett oversaw the investigation while he served as state Attorney General, before becoming governor.

He says on one hand, there’s the legal question of how allegations of sexual abuse were handled, and on the other hand, there’s the moral issue.

“I was, I am personally disappointed in the lack of action and had to contain that for the last two plus years,” said Corbett. “The board is going to address that.”

Spanier brought the era of homosexual tolerance to Penn State after he did the same at UNL.

This is the radical homosexual agenda on display -— there is no such thing as pedophelia.

For ALL responsible:

Loss of job.

Jail time.

And worst of all (and most UNLIKELY in the fault-free Royal Court of Big Academia/Jockland), loss of pension and benefits.

hey what is wrong with everyone - is Penn State supposed to follow rules like the Boy Scouts? I thought gay marriage is all the rage in blue states and that gays in the military can’t possible harm the mission. Someone help this poor guy are we for or against gays having fun at work? Are we for or against gays in scouts? After all the Philly city council kicked the scouts out of their building because they don’t let gay men treat young boys like play toys. /sarcasm on this topic is not proper, but how do we change the rules when all I said is allowed to go unchallenged - until some gay man gets caught and his “gay loving friends” cover it up.

Here is what happened in 2002.

McQueary tells Paterno he saw Sandusky with a boy in the showers having sex.

Paterno has McQueary tell Curley and Schultz, who tell Spanier.

Spanier gets Sandusky in and asks him if the sex with the boy was consensual. Sandusky says “yes” and the matter is closed.

Spanier tolerates radical homosexuality, including the concept that minors can give consent.

Former PA Gov. Tom Ridge is rumored to be his replacement.

Next to Graham Spanier he suddenly looks like Barry Goldwater.

Paterno announced today that he will retire at the end of this season. That may not be good enough to take the heat off.

Spanier will probably retire with a mega public pension and benefits much of it paid for by taxpayers. He and others like him who live like kings on the public dole should lose their pensions when incompetency and potential criminality leads to public abuse or costs. We have too many of Spanier’s ilk running publicly (and private) funded institutions of higher education in America that will cover up crime on campus for the reputation and their football programs.

Head coach Joe Paterno, the winningest coach in Division I history, announced this morning he will retire at the end of the season.

JoePa, What did you know?? I believe that JoePa is the innocent victim in this.
