Lemon asked “Why is it so hard for some people to get that message, to hear that message, to receive that message, and without lashing out?” “Well, it’s because they feel, I think they feel embarrassed,” Cosby replied.

Time to get over it. Too bad Cosby is getting so rambling and incoherent in his live interviews. He needs a few younger men to take up his campaign. Lemon seems like a good start. But most prominent athletes and entertainers are thugs themselves, so it's going to be tough to find some more good ones.

Ben Carson types are too "white" for a lot of black people. Those damn Oreo guys who go to school, finish it with good grades, get jobs in the "white" world, earn a decent living, raise a Huxtable family with nice kids, are just too much for them.

They know the white man's ways are just wrong for them. They want to be athletes, actors, and rappers with a lot of bling and no responsibilities. But it's not working out all that well for 93% of them, even though they bought into obama. Yes, they are embarrassed because their stupid, childish ideas just plain suck. Time to admit it.

It's going to take generations of chipping away at the problem OR one truly amazing black leader with the ability to slap some sense back into them in a hurry.

Unfortunately true and to make matters worse that is exactly the type of black man that republicans try pushing on blacks when most will only respect a black man who can build "street cred". Oddly enough I think Herman Cain is one of the few black republicans who could pull it off even over someone like Alan West.

Ben Carson has a role but politics ain't it. He already has hero status in Detroit and there is even a prep school in Detroit carrying his name. (Benjamin Carson High School of Science and Medicine and Detroit Collegiate Prep School) I personally would like to see him with a role in education.

Ghetto blacks feel envy, not embarrassment. A life of special ed, lower standards, affirmative action, welfare, foodstamps, family members on drugs and stints in jail have destroyed any normal sense of shame. Ghetto blacks in general feel little embarrassment about anything.

For envy to develop, they have to try to succeed and fail multiple times. They do try to emulate the successful but it usually doesn't work. They then come to the conclusion they can't compete fair and square in the white man's world and they check out.

There's no appeasing the envious. When you give them hand outs, they resent it because it's proof you are better than them. They are drawn to communism to break the playing field, and modern civilization, into piles of rubble, but even then their envy will not be gone because the white people will still be envied for having once been richer than them and probably will soon be again. Even if a rich man gave an envious man a check so that both their bank accounts are equal, they will envy him for being a better man. Helping the envious is proof they are inferior.

A heavy dose of humility can treat the envious. A sound non-envious religion can help. Actions to artificially boost their self-esteem only make the envy problem worse.

Ghetto blacks can't compete with suburban whites in employment however they are smarter and more capable than most any other animal. If they had their own playing field, half of them would succeed, which is much more than do now. They've already organized themselves into big city reservations. Put up a border around the cities and have import taxes and they can pursue happiness on their own terms.

You can't help the envious like Bill Cosby is trying to do. They have to help themselves or it's a no-gro.

There's been rumors that he has some type of debilitating illness. He's clearly not the articulate man he was in the 80s.

Charge the domestic-savages with child abuse, no work...no benefits.

Take the kids away and have them raised in Japanese-household fosterhomes, where the parents will insist they excel in school, and be polite.

Have them go to college on their scholarships, and don't let them see the ghetto until they're young adults.
