I’m hoping the war within the rat party is a race war. With any luck queen b!tch Hillary will be involved in the 2020 primaries v. some entitled black incompetent (Harris, Booker,etc.). A replay of 2008, down and dirty with all the intrigue these criminals can muster.

why was the creep thrown under the bus and Clinton wasn’t? Or Sandusky? Or Joe Paterno? Or any of a thousand others who should be exposed?

“I get the feeling a lot of these perverts may have something in common but I just can seem to figure out what it is.”

Liberalism is a mental disorder. And it’s contagious.

Why now? Why Weinstein? Who got out the long knives- and why?

Why Do American’s Own So Many Guns?

"Bob Weinstein, the disgruntled co-founder of The Weinstein Company, may have been the mastermind behind an exposé of lurid sex allegations that led to his brother’s humiliating downfall, the sources said."

Who were Weinstein's media enablers? How about everybody in the Establishment Media?

I think Harvey Weinstein must have browbeat The Hollywood Reporter, Variety and Los Angeles Times into getting favorable press. In short, these three publications could become material witnesses in any case against him.

The serial abuse of women never hurt Bill Clinton.

He’s still the biggest rock star in the Democrat Party.

I have worked in Hollywood since the late 1970s. Men have always used their power to gain sexual satisfaction, as women have used the promise of sexual satisfaction to gain power. “Haaaaaahvey” is hardly unique, any more than Madonna (to pick an easy example) was unique in using horizontal activities to ascend vertically in showbiz.

The New York Times was one of the enablers.

What’s Meryl Streep have to say? It’s the ONE TIME I’d like to hear it! I suspect they all like this sort of thing; it’s a barrier to entry to their business.

What’s that Meryl?? I can’t hear you!!!!

Letterman a) is a nobody and b) does not have the power of a Harvey Weinstein.

Point is everyone knows how the game is played and these starlets are not innocent. They know you trade sex for a part in a movie and are willing participants.

Yes of course, I know all that.

My interest in this story has zero to do with the marketplace for sex, which, having been around the block a few times, I am (to a degree) familiar with.

But for the NYT to go all in in this manner is VERY interesting.

FWIW, we don’t know it’s just the ‘Rats. If the Bush DOJ knew anything about this guy and did nothing with regard to any Federal laws broken, then it’s not just a ‘Rat problem, is it?

As I said before, I am sure the abuse of women is a thoroughly bipartisan practice.

However, the NYT treatment of abusers is far from bipartisan, which is why what they did and why they did it as regards Harvey Weinstein is so interesting.

Pushing the women’s vote, knowing they won’t be pissed at Leftist male offenders to abandon the Dims, but fired up to vote for Harris or Fauxahontas

I read his brother gave the story to the NYT to get his brother out of the way so he could take over the company. Apparently, there was bad blood between the two.

When the lights are turned on, the cockroaches start to scatter.

I noticed that Weinstein’s best pal and defender of women’s rights, Hildabeast, has been awfully quiet since that story broke.
