Does anybody remember Robert Culp saying Bill Cosby was the angriest man alive? Is anger a chip on the shoulder? A means to justify revenge/aggression? Culp’s take on Cosby is not what most here seem to think of Cosby.

A perfect storm (and the internet) broke the story this time, including a huge blunder by Cosby as he started a huge new promotion for his current show biz projects and new sitcom.

You will find lots from the first half of the 2000s, it just never got legs, the media did not want it to bust out.

Given he size of the country and the number of women out there willing to make false claims for fame or forutant its not at all hard to believe that they would all pile on.

Are you insane?

Close to ten women have said this creep drugged and raped them.

He can’t be charged due to the statute of limitations, but he certainly should be shunned and not supported in any way.

When you think the public couldn’t become any more lost, another slap in the face to see that people cannot determine what he did was wrong. People are living in denial to where they were bought into him being a great dad. He is a rapist, just like the same people who support Clinton to this day, that’s he a great person. In the end, neither will get away with these abuses. And, any other who did this same stuff long ago. How people can ignore and explain away in their minds what he did, is for a therapist to explain.

Conservatives who want to join the left in dredging the bottom of the barrel with internet convictions should be shunned.

Lance Armstrong did not cheat and is being attacked because he supports Bush. And look what he has done for cancer research!

Tebow is an excellent NFL quarterback because he is a devote Christian.

Bill Crosby did not rape any women and is being set up because of his disparaging remarks against young black America.

It is amazing to see how members of the truest website on the internet can be side lined by pet projects.

Does anybody have more info on these accusations? It just seems so out-of-the-blue and so fast and furious.

Fast and furious. Say no more. say no more. Mums the word!

The sad state of American culture. Clinton the rapist was re-elected, OJ was hounded for autographs and chased down by women, and of course lets not talk about our celebrities who rocketed to fame with their sex tapes. The Oprahfication of American culture is complete. Micelle O was for the “first time” proud to be an American when O was elected. Go figure.

A case that some might remember?
___http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMartin_preschool_trial
The fate and reasoning that the first personal accusation was from, is a interesting subject.
Also the Idea of “Moral Panic” is a reasonable explanation.
Perjury was blatant in that case.

And that seems illogical if Cosby really is for what is respectable.

It turned out in the end to have been a witch hunt. But again, those who were active in bringing the accusations weren’t the children. In this case... the actual parties who would have been involved with the alleged Cosby shenanigans are stepping forward.

I have no doubt that Cosby can still put on a clean comedy show if he wants to. Maybe only he, God, and the accusers know the truth. How do we know how much they care about the truth. This many people won’t shut up easily and there will be investigations.

Yep

Much as folks here hate it the plethora of accusations rape count wise are worse against Cosby than Slick who is bad enough

I do think Freepers have a point though that the fact that ultralib Obama loving Cosby has said a couple of reasonable things has cost him friends and their support in the Coloring The News illuminati

Making open season on him easier....

You can Google it.

Over 30 years of allegations
Out of court settlements......one verified more hinted at
Several police reported
Prosecutors comments she wanted to charge him
Several of the victims allegations eerily similar about being drugged

When the victims are all voluntarily in quarters with Cosby or anyone else it quickly becomes he said she said...ala Clinton

There is just too much....

As for Clinton...Juanita Broaddrick was unreported to police old allegations which she first recanted and then changed for the Dateline interview and Freepers ate it up after the TV interview.....I'm ambivalent though Clinton was certainly capable and Broaddrick seemed credible.

Cosby's..(some) were reported to police ...some not....and some are fresh...2006.... yet some here dismiss them all

It seems folks in right or left can be driven by what they need to believe
