Funny thing when I went to reply to this, this morning. Was just about ready to hit “Post” and my laptop quit. Won’t start again. So then I went to my desktop; my browser closed itself 3 times in succession because of a critical error but wouldn’t ever let me send an error report. In the past 4 years I’ve been through 2 laptops and 3 desktops. Destroyed. My family doesn’t want me using their computers because they know it’ll get hit if I start doing my stuff on it. I’m the only one who ever has this stuff happen.
A friend says I shouldn’t mention when stuff like this happens because it only encourages the jerks to do more. Not sure what more can be done besides wiping out every computer I touch... Of course it could all be coincidence, like it was with Sharyl Atkisson...
Anyway, accusers who slip up on their story will always say they just “mis-spoke”, and the only way to show otherwise is with evidence we don’t have access to, like the phone and email records from 2004.
In a court appearance, you can confront them with discrepancies and watch their immediate responses - not what they’ve had time to figure out how to spin. The closest we can come to that is the media “gotcha”, but the media won’t even ask these women to explain discrepancies because we’ve already had about 4 years of the leftists telling us that anybody who scrutinizes women’s claims has a “war on women”.
If they’ve tried to fabricate evidence that can be shown simply by examining that evidence and seeing, for instance, that in 1982 Bill Cosby didn’t look like the guy in those photos, and the setting has the wrong kind of booze, and the whole story of her pulling out a Polaroid camera right as she was going to pass out makes no sense - like other details don’t make sense, such as her being there to discuss going on a TV show that Cosby wouldn’t have until 2 years later, or her bringing her pajamas with her to a dinner date, or her getting into her pajamas and Cosby getting into his robe without her ever suspecting something fishy was going on...
Nancy Grace commented that the stories began to be taken seriously when Dickinson came forward. If her story was a fabricated lie - done with the help of somebody close enough to Cosby to take photos of him in his robe without Cosby thining twice about it - then there is a deliberate effort by media and at least one insider, to frame Cosby for things he didn’t do.
And I can’t even post the pics here on Free Republic, so people can easily see how the alleged “right before the rape” photos don’t fit the claims or the time period. If the evidence isn’t welcome here, we can be pretty sure that the leftist media won’t process the evidence either. So it’s one great big lynching. Evidence not welcome.
And that’s sad.
hardware issues
—you might just be hard on your hardware. btw lots of computer stuff is presumed to have a product lifetime of about 2 years.
mis-speaking
—i suppose. however, on the web it is mentioned that a police report was filed in 2000, so tarshis could have heard about it then, and the people she was talking with are (to my awareness) not necessarily all those who recently came forward. these are all technicalities that can be worked on in cross examination, which is always helpful, yes. so a trial would serve a useful purpose if it were to be held. but the simplest explanation is still usually the best. one can of course build a conspiracy theory around a single quote, but then the conspiracy theory is only as strong as that one instance, and if the instance is easily retracted by a correction, ...
when dickinson came forward
—when did she come forward about cosby specifically? she states that cosby’s laywers had a role in censoring her second book, no lifeguard on duty (2002). apparently dickinson only came forward about the cosby story by name this past november 18? tarshis came out november 17? bowman came out november 11? buress gave the routine october 17? nancy grace sounds as if she is just giving her opinion of others’ collective opinions, and hardly seems to matter that much one way or another.
