Corbett & Spanier Feud

Sharing this, as it adds another facet to Corbett's acrimony towards Spanier, fueling the coup of November 2011.

Corbett should be in jail for his actions as Governor and AG.

He obviously abused the power of the offices when he served in Pennsylvania government. He WITHOUT A DOUBT was (and IS) in violation of his Oath of office - AND - more importantly, there continues to appear more and more evidence to support the premise that there were FINANCIAL GAIN incentives for him to create and promote the Penn State criminal illusion.

It is time to take back the PA state government and make a public statement to these kinds of criminals - YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO ABUSE PA powers, positions and associations to promote your own agenda and personal benefits.

As the Penn State community...we are "too soft" on these types - that includes the now obvious collusion that exists between PA government and our own BOT. The BOT is NOT incompetent....they are CROOKS! Jail anyone of them involved in this criminal collusion.
 
^^^^^^^^ THIS!!!! ^^^^^^^^^^
Those that think they "screwed the pooch" in November 2011 are missing the BIG picture.
IMHO, people have trouble admitting these folks are crooks because that also requires admitting certain political realities. It is more comfortable to pretend it is all incompetence.

A reasonable person should be prepared to see much more of this sort of rationalization, at a broader level, in the next several years.

Well, one of the biggest, if not the biggest, donors to Corbutt from the PA Shale Oil / Energy Special Interests group is none other than Pegula - I guess it's just a coinky-dink that via his right-hand man, Cliff Benson, they're also heavily tied to The Second Mile and its protection.....go figure

Corbett and the BoT did whatever they could to whomever they could to protect themselves. It's really not more complicated than that...never has been.

I'll double down on that

I'll also take it one step further.........there is not one in a position of standing who will hold them accountable as such

No one

None

Zero

Zip

Nada

This entire debacle is void of a single mother-loving person who will even pretend to hold these c$cks$ckers accountable

I don't know why you go there. Both sides are, to be kind, corrupt. IMHO, the national democratic party is a criminal organization that masquerades as a political party. You're just pissed that the other side will corner the market on corruption for a few years.

Joe should have never been fired.

But the information in your link is bizarre.
Why? Though it may not be the only reason for Corbett's vendetta, it adds credence to the assertion that he had an ax or two to grind. Unless, of course, you are a climate change denier.

Don't know about that - Trump is not from the "political establishment", is considered an "interloper" by the "political establishment" on both sides of the political isle (the "political establishment" on both sides of the isle really are "elitists" and consider themselves to be "political royalty"....and just like historic monarchies believe themselves to be both "entitled" and "above the law". Actually, they believe the justice system is two-speed - one for the commoners, the "sheeple", and one for the "political class"....of course they are the creators of the law, so their entitlement must be taken into consideration...).

One of the more "out there" posts of the last 5 years.......I suppose if one were really into the "climate change debate" it is very interesting.

But its a avalanche of information to state the (one would think) obvious:

"Politicos, and those who control the politicos with their $$$$, will stop at nothing to further their agendas of self-interest."

Which is a concept that is - certainly - of critical importance in understanding why "we are where we are" vav the entire Penn State situation.
 
I for one am interested to see what comes of the Spanier vs. Freeh suit finally gets moving forward in January when oral arguments are heard ...
Just one person's "insight" :)

1 - As a demographic, "Judges" may be the most arrogant, self-obsessed creatures who ever sprouted legs and crawled out of the primordial ooze (in many cases - apparently - they then turn around and crawl right back into the swamp).

2 - As such, for better or worse, they rarely care to even attempt to hide their "take" on things.....just look at the numerous high-profile cases we have seen related to "our" situation.

3 - Based on rulings in the Spanier/Freeh case to date........
Any expectations that Spanier is going to be able to "hold Freeh accountable"....or to in any way crucify Freeh and gain any reasonable measure of redemption, are likely to lead to disappointment

Hope I am wrong.....especially since Spanier's suit was the one legal action in this entire cluster-f&ck that could reasonably claim to be at least "suing the right people".
 
Thanks for sharing Wendy. I have a feeling @T J is going to take issue with some of it lol.


Such propaganda bull-oney regarding the climate situation, which is loaded with misdirection, misrepresentation and outright falsehoods. But that is what propagandists do... they mislead the ignorant.

Note that the propagandists use the false term "denier." It's an anti-science propaganda term used to trigger their ignorant followers to stop thinking. That's not science, it is political propaganda. It and other propaganda terms are focus grouped and selected as terms that can mislead, emotionally inflame and falsely misrepresent the high road of honest scientific reviews.

Science is based upon rational, logical, independent review of claims via the Scientific Method. That is the basis for Skeptical review of alarmist and unsupportable climate claims. Skeptical review of claims is the high road and the Solid foundation of science, against those with anti-science agendas.

Ironically the chief "denier" was Michael Mann and a web of about 43 "climate scientists."
They were the ones saying via the debunked Hockey Stick Graph, that climate didn't change for a thousand years, until humans intervened. Rational Skeptical Scientists dragged them kicking and screaming toward the fact that Climate is always changing. Research has been presented that most of the last 10,000 years were warmer than some of our recent temps.

Mann and his climate cabal of some 43 key climateeers were outed as using the same bad data and the same debunked, fabricated statistical techniques that were laughably wrong. They "pal reviewed" each other's studies in inbred fashion, when they were all using the same unsupportable claims. The former statistical head of the National Academy of Sciences (whatever the proper title would be), headed a review committee that agreed with professional statistical analysis debunking Mann's claims.

This propaganda piece is full of falsehoods.

One may be that the PSU professor is a Nobel Prize winner. The corrupt "climate scientists" were spreading so much false info, the Nobel Prize committee itself issued an international "slap-down" of the "climate scientists'" false claims, documenting that their claims (like Michael Mann's claim) of winning a Nobel Prize, were false.

=========

Regarding data integrity problems within the climate cabal... from a review of the "climate scientists" ClimateGate Scam information...

Can anyone recall any climate skeptic, anywhere, ever demanding the deletion of climate data?

Much of the battle between skeptics and climate organisations has been about compelling reluctant climate researchers to release data which they wanted to hide. Skeptics have consistently demanded more access to data, not less.

For example, consider Climategate email 1106338806.txt from Professor Phil Jones, former head of the prestigious UK based Climatic Research Unit.

Tom,
I’ll look at what you’ve said over the weekend re CCSP.
I don’t know the other panel members. I’ve not heard any
more about it since agreeing a week ago.
As for FOIA Sarah isn’t technically employed by UEA and she
will likely be paid by Manchester Metropolitan University.
I wouldn’t worry about the code. If FOIA does ever get
used by anyone, there is also IPR to consider as well.
Data is covered by all the agreements we sign with people,
so I will be hiding behind them.

I’ll be passing any requests onto the person at UEA who has been given a post to deal with them.
Cheers
Phil


Plenty more where that email came from – lots of discussions in the Climategate archive

of legal tricks to avoid
Freedom of Information requests,

use of UN mandates to avoid national law based FOIA requests,

Climate scientists' requests to delete emails and files,

and what appear to be deliberate attempts to conceal and perhaps even to delete important material.
In January 2010,

the UK information office found that the [leading climate science group]

CRU had breached freedom of information laws,

but that the statute of limitations on the offense had run out – it was too late to prosecute those responsible.

Kinda why I just want some things to move forward. Start getting people on the record and see where if any where this all leads us. It could lead to no where additional information coming out into the public or lead to some new roads and people. Either way it's long over due and time for people to have their day in court.

I doubt that ANYONE is going to - in any meaningful way - "have their day on court".

TJ is more comfortable with the fake news he posts at the Test Board cesspool.

Decades of "Fake News" has been outed regarding the political agenda-driven and anti-science efforts from the alarmists' Climate Cabal for sure.

Too often, we see emotional alarmists run from the science and instead spew propaganda attacks against those who support the high road of the Scientific Method.

It's always funny seeing the same sort of Anti-science types who promote demonization and censorship of rational scientific reviews of claims, while they abandon the Scientific Method that debunks their agenda-driven and/or corrupt political extremism.

Cheers! ;)

Don't like many things about Trump, but the one thing he is very correct about is that the U.S., via the entrenched "political ruling class" and corruption/politicization of the judiciary, has become "Modern Rome". And the corruption of the 3 Branches of Government (Legislative, Judicial and Executive) begins and ends with corrupt, immoral, self-serving "lawyers-turned-politicos" who fancy themselves as "royalty", entitled and subject to a different set of laws and morality than the "commoner" being ruled over (i.e., the corrupt, entrenched "political class" view themselves as the "Bourgeoisie" ruling over the "Bourgeois").
 
Scientific inquiry in all fields in the real world is nothing like the "scientific method" taught in primary schools. But keep using that term like it means something.
