Disgraced Former Penn State University President Now Working for U.S. Government

Graham Spanier might have been ousted from his post at the helm of Penn State over the sex-abuse scandal that engulfed the university, but it seems he’s found a backup employer: the American taxpayer.

Only a disgraced public figure would consider joining the much-maligned ranks of the federal workforce as a step up, reputation-wise. We can assume there were no openings for a used-car salesman.

Spanier was faulted in an internal Penn State report after the conviction on child-molestation charges of former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky. The report said he, head coach Joe Paterno and others helped cover up Sandusky’s abuse.

His lawyer confirms to the Loop that Spanier is working on a part-time consulting basis for a “top-secret” agency on national security issues.But the gig is so hush-hush, he couldn’t even tell his attorneys the name of the agency. In April — months after his ouster as president but before the release of the internal report — he told the Patriot-News of central Pennsylvania that he was working on a “special project for the U.S. government relating [to] national security.”

I to have a huge problem with people benefiting from others pain.  The AP article says that it can't be verified and I have looked in vain for some kind of verification besides what Spanier has to say.  He has no credibility with me.  I am a Pennsylvania native and worked at a Penn State affiliated college and never heard very much positive about this man.  If this proves to be true I would start the first petition to call for his removal on moral grounds.  It is an absolutely insane practice which goes on large scale.

There used to be a joke about "no good deed goes unpunished".  Now, especially since 911 and the mortgage-backed securities fraud with Wall Street Banksters and money-junkies....no BAD deed goes unpunished either.

and it's the perfect place to - if you have a criminal mindset.   Honestly, we can all do so well without what they call government - and we can't do well with it.  I look forward to the day and hope to live to see it when we believe no more in myths and false authority and can look to ourselves and our neighbors and community collectively.   But I wonder how long can the sociopaths 'rule'?  Not too long if we don't believe in them. All of us.
