It was surprising to hear Rush Limbaugh say the words, “I don’t have the guts to bring it up,” but he did, on November 8th, to his massive radio audience.
Rush Limbaugh lacking the guts to address something publicly? Rush Limbaugh not willing to tackle controversy? Really?
He was responding to a statement by a caller named Lawrence as they discussed Joe Paterno and the scandal at Penn State.
CALLER: “What’s that?”
RUSH: “Nobody has the guts to actually give the explanation for what was going on and why there was trepidation in reporting it, and that's all I'll say. If you can figure it out on your own, fine and dandy. . . .”
What was Rush talking about?
Let’s put this in context. If there is any prominent figure in America who does not bow down to political correctness or media pressure, it is Rush Limbaugh. In fact, he’s on record as saying that when people try to silence you, you should shout louder.

What is it that, in his words, could end his career? What is it about the Penn State scandal that is “glaring; it's right in front of everybody,” and yet “Nobody has the guts to actually give the explanation for what was going on and why there was trepidation in reporting it”?

Uh, you realize that the age of consent in many parts of the US was 14 until the 1920s. It is at 16 in several states. “18” is rather arbitrary.
I fully understand what you are saying, and yes, we do disagree. It’s a polite and nuanced disagreement, but definitely a disagreement.
Given all Rush does to support the military, you are simply insisting on being unhappy with them.
Go ahead and enjoy your self righteous misery. Free country.
Uh, you realize that only covered heterosexual relations?
Rush may not want to say it- but by saying what he has, he may have gotten it out anyway (Rush is not stupid this way)
I am betting there was an entire ‘ring’ of people involved in pedophiles with the penn state issue
You make a good point - Rush cannot POSSIBLY say anything on the air that he does not have 100% absolute proof of.
If he state a ‘rumor’ on-air, he would be finished.
But he can get the rumor mill cranked up and let people help investigate it on their own, if there is any basis in truth. And Ihope people do, if there is.
My bet: (NOTE THIS IS ALL SPECULATION - I HAVE NO INFO - ONLY SUSPICIONS) Homosexual pedophile ring, involving many high level people of the NAMBLA type. If this was only Sandusky, he could not have gotten away with it so long. And if true I would put good money that a lot of democraps are in it. Republicans would be exposed and jailed.
One I share. Particularly if you listen to what he says after that statement. Of course, it fits with my own particular prejudices/opinions about sports in educational institutions.
Who else knew, when did they know, what did they know, and was anyone else involved ?"
I have no proof, just a gut level feeling, but I'll bet that this situation extends to many other colleges, beyond Penn State.
I think his occasional references to an “stealth government” running the country may enter into this discussion.
I think there just might be a whole lot more, maybe a much wider scope to this story that if Americans ever learned combined with the homosexual predator angle would have them picking up pitchforks and taking things into their own hands. That type of thing caused a stir in Europe but here???
Like I said ....conjecture...
“Lollipop.....LOL”
When I quickly read that post I saw “lollipoop”. Now I see that I misread it.
Yes. You’re right ever since the homosexual activists came out of the audience while he was subbing on the Pat Sajak Show in 1990. Gave $10,000 to a Pediatric AIDS Foundation and apologized.
Also the guy who got him his big break in Sacramento was also gay.
bump to view at home...
I wouldn't be the least bit surprised, that said, Sandusky, was the architect of Linebacker U, and retired at the young age of 55, and never ever got another job offer from another college or even an offer to coach LBs in the NFL....nothing.
So, I'm not totally buying into this "we were all fooled" stuff. Also, nothing, and absolutely nothing I have read, suggests that Sandusky was a loner with no friends, who kept to himself.....
I also suspect that the Second Mile operation was one of many “feeder” operations supplying children to wealthy molesters, and that this network is widespread. I also believe that this network is “bait” to draw in support for a particular agenda, with the bargain being “help support our agenda and plans, and you can do ANYTHING you want, fulfill ANY fantasy you have.”
Yesterday on the Martha Stewart show she played a commercial where she was a model at age fifteen. Part of the commercial involved her being embraced by a man in his thirties, as she was playing his "wife." I was disgusted--but that was they way things were in the sixties when MS was a model.
It is interesting that we've gotten to a place that there are so many kinds of sex. Sex between a man and a child is another kind of sex, distinct from either homosexual or heterosexual sex.
You want Limbaugh to start spouting off about pop culture garbage? As far as I’m concerned he should double down on ignoring that nonsense.
But... the homosexual aspect is more likely what Rush was referring to.
Boy, that didn't take long until it became "fact". It was just reported on Fox News that there is another scandal, at Syracuse University.
