While the establishment media has ceaselessly smeared Ron Paul for the controversial content of decades-old newsletters that were not even written by him, the comparatively shocking scandal of Rick Santorum having sponsored alleged child molester Jerry Sandusky has been almost universally ignored.

Santorum, who has cultivated an image as a clean-cut social conservative trumpeting family values, nominated Sandusky for a “Congressional Angels in Adoption Award,” after Sandusky had already been accused of at least five cases of child molestation.

“Its philosophy is simple,” said Santorum of Sandusky’s charity, “It is easier to develop a child than to rehabilitate an adult.”

    • “'Congressional Angels in Adoption Award,' after Sandusky had already been accused of at least five cases of child molestation.".....

      It is pretty messed up that almost all media outlets have ignored this... You'd think this would be just the type of shit they like to throw out there..

      If it had been Ron Paul....

      The media is covering for a massive pedophile ring that obviously stretches from Hollywood, through the colleges of the heartland all the way to halls of Washington DC and beyond.

      They only report on child abuse and pedophilia when a particular case become too large to ignore, as in the case of Sandusky, which was known about for years.

      And no one in government and law enforcement appear to even thinking about lifting a finger to put a stop to it.

      Thanks. Even though this can be considered a guilt by association smear against Santorum, that really wasn't the intent of this post.

      Now that the mainstream media is trying hard to supress issue of widespread accusations of child abuse and pedophilia in high-powered circles, we shouldn't let this issue die simply because they would prefer it to go away.

      Santorum, a 1980 PSU graduate, is one of the school’s most distinguished alumni – a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination who represented Pennsylvania in the U.S. Senate from 1995 to 2007. A social conservative and champion of adoption, Santorum is staking his candidacy on an appeal to family values.

      Since the scandal broke into the news, Santorum has been circumspect in his comments about it. He has said he does not know Sandusky personally.

      And indeed, the guy has been a top philanthropist for a long time, routinely honored by political figures.

      On Tuesday, Santorum told ABC News that Paterno deserved the benefit of the doubt because he has “served in such distinction for all those years.” Santorum also said: “Look, I pray and hope that he (Paterno) didn’t do anything he shouldn’t have done, but it certainly looks horrible for the university, horrible for the football program and obviously people were fired, should be fired,” Santorum told ABC News.
