Thank you for having the guts to post this.
I totally agree with this article. They killed JoePa and they are still in charge??? SHAME on them and the press!
Yes, thank you for having the courage to tell the truth about what went on at Penn State. The truth is: liberalism once again won, and a man who held to conservative standards was sacrificed on the twin altars of cowardice and political correctness.
To those who bleat, “Well, I care about the children,” please stop insulting the rest of us with your self-righteous effluvia. We all care about the children. As did JoPa — who spent his life caring about the children and molding men.
With the knowledge he had, Joe Paterno did what was right and just. He reported to those whose job it was to investigate and take appropriate action. Should he have gone on a vendetta against Sandusky based on the skimpy information we now know he was given?
No — for three reasons.
First, as noted, he reported to those whose responsibility was to investigate the charges, the ones who had the tools to thoroughly do so.
Second, he proceeded with his own job assuming that if further action from him was required, he would be so informed.
Third, he worked for a college president who was a notoriously “gay rights” zealot, a man who had made it known that any employee or student who criticized homosexuals could be punished (he even went after the Boy Scouts for being “homophobic”. So, JoPa should have martyred himself in a case in which he didn’t even know the full story?
The leftwing board of Penn State considered Joe Paterno an anachronistic conservative. They hated his standards, morals, and virtues. They saw a chance to scapegoat him — and like typical liberal vipers, they couldn’t wait to strke.
