What doesn't make sense is that so many successful women who have nothing to gain from getting involved have come forward. And nobody's come forward to say "that's not what happened when I was invited to his room"
It was the 1970s. Nobody wanted to destroy the role model for upwardly mobile middle class blacks. In my mind it makes sense.
IF you read another story, posted on FR, another man was paid by Cosby to pay off women. He still has the money order receipts to show. He said he quit the network because of Cosby.
Nothing to gain? The timing suggests they could have a LOT to gain, if they want to help with Obama’s race war - or if somebody who wants to help with Obama’s race war is willing to slip them a little money (or an “opportunity” on the sly).
The first accusation was in 2005, shortly after Cosby opened up the debate about whether Black “culture” is whites’ fault. It involved a police report where - according to the police - the woman went halfway with Cosby consentually and then accused Cosby of assault because he tried to move her hand toward his male member. That was the only police report involved, and even that event could well have been a set-up. It’s “he said, she said” so we’ll never know.
The next year there was a civil lawsuit which named a bunch of “Jane Doe’s” who could have been cross-examined if there had been a trial, but it was settled out-of-court for an undisclosed amount. The claims were from the 1970’s - 30 years earlier with no possible evidence; all it could ever be was “he said, she said”, 30 years late. And Cosby knew he had Hollywood against him because he had “gone off the plantation”.
Now, on the cusp of a race war started by Holder and Obama, these claims of actions allegedly done 40 years ago just surface. There is no way to prove them wrong and the society had already been prepped to believe that anybody the media wants to vilify can be said to have a “war on women”.
It is possible that these accusations are true. It is just as possible that they aren’t. If they are true, Hollywood has a lot of answers to give as to what they knew and when.... just like Penn State had a lot of answers they needed to give about Jerry Sandusky. Is Hollywood willing to wink at known rape - until the rapist defies the leftist political talking points?
It does seem interesting to me, though, that the way to get rid of a Black male who is saying things the left doesn’t like is to come up with “he said, she said” claims about him being a womanizer. We’d be “racist” to say that Black guys lack self-control or that there’s reason to fear them, but this stereotype of Black males unable to keep their hands off women keeps cropping up whenever a Black guy leaves the plantation. Seems strange to me.
