N.Y Daily News likens Paterno "apologists" to birthers and truthers

[Joe Pa Thetic]

The New York Daily News eviscerated the Paterno "apologists" and likens them to those who believe President Obama was born in Kenya or that President Bush was behind 9/11. The articled is titled "Joe Paterno apologists are blind to reality, unwilling to face facts about ex-Penn St. coach."

A couple excepts from the article:

"Truthers are a group of unbearable conspiracy theorists who flatly dismiss the 9/11 terrorist attacks were carried out by Al Qaeda. They say it was an inside job, concocted by the American government on its own people.

Birthers are another group that religiously clings to the idea that Barack Obama was not born an American citizen and therefore should never have been eligible to run for president.

Along the same lines as these controversial factions, which reject any evidence against their strong beliefs as being out of hand and flat-out false, is the group that covers their ears and pounds their feet denouncing any and all ideas that former Penn State football coach Joe Paterno knew Jerry Sandusky was up to no good."

The article ends this way:

"The difference between Paterno and those who continue to blindly defend him, is that he understood that. He admitted it. Instead, just like Truthers and Birthers, the Paterno apologists will never even consider the alternative.

And that’s what makes them so unbearable."

This article was undoubtedly penned by a Pitt grad.

Just another cue for the Joebots to circle their wagons and play their favorite "the whole world hates us because they're jealous of us!" song & dance.....

The uneducated cult members will be protesting in Pennsyltucky!

 

[Dr. von Yinzer]

From my experience, this is pretty much how they are universally perceived outside of their insular little bubble. I'm sorry but they have done this to themselves. They're going to get no sympathy whatsoever. They don't deserve any sympathy.

 

[TIGER-PAUL]

Agree. The stigma may finally turn the tide and get a majority of them to tell the wacko gas bags (Franco, Lubrano, Paterno's et al) to stop. A mountain of facts can be dismissed, but not being able to wear a psu t shirt in public?

 

[Dr. von Yinzer]

For a lot of them, I don't think anything can possibly change their mind.

A video could literally surface with Paterno explicitly saying, "I don't care how many kids Sandusky raped! I have a football season to prepare for!" and those looney tunes would claim the video was altered, or he was taken out of context, or something - anything - to exonerate their hero.

That has ALWAYS been what this is all about - exonerating Joe. It's not about truth, it's not about justice, it's not about transparency, and it's certainly not about doing the right thing.

It's all about restoring Joe's good name, thus reaffirming their world view that Penn State is special and as Penn Staters, so too are they.

If it means that a bunch of rape victims have to be re-victimized, so be it. They want to feel prideful while wearing their Penn State T-shirt at the beach.

Absolute morons - all of them.

If the NCAA made a deal with them whereby Penn State the institution accepted full responsibility for what happened to all of those children and were issued the death penalty for five years and ordered to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to the victims; in exchange for Paterno being completely exonerated personally and his legacy restored, statue re-erected, etc., they would take that trade off in a New York minute - and that is deeply disturbing.

I once thought that too, but now as Victim's Voices are becoming more Public, I can see it going another way.....Perhaps the Settlements were paid in the anticipations of guarding the 1971-76 purchasable assertions to keep it from the Media. Possibly it was to safeguard the character of the University and Paterno from additional harm and more assertions of that disclosure. Additionally, why Settlements with such allegations went beyond Statute of Limitations were paid for this reason.

The Public knows they were afraid of what the 70’s Victims' would do and go Public with Media Allies for the University and Paterno being unresponsive to the victims in not addressing the allegations in the first place going back into the 70s.

Now that the two 70s contentions came to out in public with Media backing them to get more bleeds to lead Headlines….. to expose more cover-ups to be extracted in the future? There are other Victims out there that cannot sue and their Lawyers and Children Advocates using public emotion to drive up more responses from Penn State in the future now may bring out more problems too.

It's highly likely that a "player" or two or more walked in on Jerry doing his thing. It's also likely that there are more "janitor" and Bradley/ Schiano stories. The BOT was smart to try to just move on. The Joebots have made everything worse and we are seeing Ped State reaping the whirlwind.

 

[Sean Miller Fan]

This 1976 guy, John Doe 150 already received a settlement? Huh? PSU didnt pay those out to anybody. There had to be at least a shred of truth attached. Is this true?

From what the Joebots were saying this guy is just lying to get a check. But, he already got his check?

 

[DruidTM]

He already got his check.... Which makes the joehadists look like poorly informed asshats....

 

[ZetaZetaBeta]

Conspiracy in ridicule. Use the truly JoeBot Cult to deflect scholarly interest away from 9/11 and movies like The Insider, Flight 800 and Inside Job, and every one continues on the whurlitzer of ignorance.

 

[CaptainSidneyReilly]

I have not found nor read any Media Article that supports Paterno and Penn State position now, only the Jay Paterno Response to Sally Jenkins was the exception, and it was mocked by the Public except by PSU Cult Posters?

Even the Pennsylvania Media has sided with the Voices of Victim's, as predicated.

If anyone finds a Media Article in support of Penn State, Paterno's and attacking the Victim's Voices I would appreciate reading another view and Link it, if you can, Thank You?

I am left leaning, and this is awesome.

Find any left leaning Pedo State fan/alum and inform them that they are basically a birther, LOL. Watch their heads explode
