Yes, the picture is devastating. While 10 or 20 years ago it was acceptable to make a joke out of sexual harassment (not by me but mostly by liberal comedians like him and this Louis CK) it’s not acceptable now, thank God.

You want to be a funny comedian, go back to the days when you had to be skilled and not just throw it all out there. Bob Hope had a lot of sexual innuendo in his routine, but he didn’t have to disrespect women to do so. Thank God we still had him around performing USO shows during the first Gulf War.

I grew up with Ed Wynn, Red Skeleton, Bob Hope, Abbott and Costello, and so many others. Now they were the real deal.

I saw Bob and Delores in Saudi Arabia. They were wonderful.

Well worth reading--albeit from the libs' perspective:

How Roy Moore’s Misdeeds Are Forcing an Awakening on the Left: Years of excusing Bill Clinton’s sexual misconduct suddenly seems morally indefensible.
