Whoopi Defends Polanski: ‘It wasn’t rape-rape.’
Big Hollywood ^ | 9/28/09

Posted on 09/29/2009 5:24:39 AM PDT by DogBarkTree

“I know it wasn’t rape-rape. It was something else but I don’t believe it was rape-rape. He went to jail and and when they let him out he was like ‘You know what, this guy’s going to give me a hundred years in jail I’m not staying,’ so that’s why he left.” (video clip at link)

Wisdom and morality from a s***bag who had six or seven abortions and tinkered with prostitution.

I have twin daughters who are 13. In my world Polanski would have been a dead man.

Which is why these people are so hostile to Christianity: they don’t want to be held accountable for their actions.

No doubt. But, as we read in Galatians 6:7 “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.”

I think she means sex with a 13 yr old in Hollywood is no big deal and not considered rape. Parents put their kids out there and offer them to the highest bidder so Mom and Dad can live the rich and famous life. Look at Drew Barrymore, the Home Alone kid and hundreds others. It makes me sick!

“libs” truly work the bidding of their father (John 8:44), the prince of this world (John 12:31).

Indeed, the primary target is the family.

You ask what’s next? How about justifying murder? Oh, wait... they already do that, but they call it “choice” or “end of life decisions”.

Indeed, what’s next?

Whoopi's mind is like a steel trap, snapped shut and rusted closed forever. Stupid liberal hollyweird fools ... pondscum has more use than these leftist pricks little nettles.

Holy carp, imagine the hue and cry if a white guy made a statement like that. The nags would be apoplectic.

So Whoopi, is date rape ok then? That’s not really “rape” rape either. What about domestic assault? That’s not “assault” assault. Is that ok? And speaking of assault, what about “assault” weapons? They’re not really assault weapons because they’re not fully automatic.

In other words, as long as it’s in the gray area, it’s ok with you, Whoopi?
+++++++++++++

Right. Look how these liberals parse their words and split their hairs...it’s like Clinton before the Grand Jury...they all do this.

This is why you cannot trust liberals on any matter - EVER.

You, and they, never actually know exactly what they’re talking about, or implying. And they certainly don’t understand, nor discuss any of the untoward consequences of any of their cock-eyed ideas.

You all have to hear this tape. "The rest of the world sees things differently" "Would I let my 14 year old have sex with a grown man, not necessarily" "Where was the mother?"

Why does anyone watch this show? These people are dangerous!

13 isn’t rape-rape. It’s RAPE, period. But if this had happened to Whoopi when SHE was 13, she’d be claiming victim status for the rest of her life.

I've come to the conclusion that "as long as it's a liberal doing it", it's OK with them - all of them.

In recent conversations with a lib over various issues, this was the only point of consistency (even breath to breath) that I could gleen from her point of view.

It very well probably happened to her.
It very well could be that she’s trying to deny that the event screwed her up mentally, and that’s why she’s defending the event when it happens to another.

She is correct in that not all rapes are equal. For example a 18 year old high school senior having consensual sex with his 16 year old girlfriend would be statutory rape in many jurisdictions, but would not be the same as a stranger grabbing a woman off the street and forcibly raping her.

However, from what I have read, the Polanski incident was not only ‘rape-rape’, but ‘rape-rape-rape’.

1) The victim was 13, well below the age of consent.

2)He got her drunk and gave her drugs, impairing her ability to consent, even if she had been of age.

3) She demaneded that he stop, making it forcible.

This was not some borderline or technical rape as
Whoopi’s uninformed comment would suggest.

Easy for her to say. Her appearance almost guarantees she'll never have to worry about being raped.

I can’t believe The View won a daytime Emmy Award a couple of weeks ago. It should be named “The Liberal View”.
