Since the Bill Cosby accusations
first surfaced months ago, quite a few men who I respect tremendously have come
to me with the stupid conspiracy theories, the "blame the victim"
take, the "gold digger” take, etc.
REALLY…they just don’t fly. These
charges involve the very first woman we know he raped. In a sworn deposition in this particular
case, the creep admitted to securing Quaaludes (a potent and powerful drug that
can incapacitate very quickly) so that he could drug women and have sex with
them…DUH, people!...How much more proof do you need? Also, In this particular case, he settled out
of court this woman, with the stipulation that she keep her mouth shut, and Andre
Constand is not, and has never been living high off the hog, as are none of the
other women…so where are the gold diggers???
Like I’ve always said, 57 women aren’t telling the same lie, and none of
them knew each other. Face it people,
The “Cliff Huxtable” you’ve loved for all of these years is character, not a
“real” person! Bill Cosby is a rapist
and a pedophile. What???...How many
women have to come forward 100, 200, 500 before they are to be believed,
because I’m betting these 57 are just the tip of the iceberg.
You can talk about Stephen Collins, father on the television show, “Seventh Heaven”, Woody Allen or Roman Polanski, but as we all know there is another standard for those whose skin is a certain hue, and that in no way lets them off the hook for their deeds, for THEY TOO, are rapists and pedophiles…privilege just affords them a different type of punishment, or not. I would also argue, that there are no accusations that any of them drugged and raped almost 60 women, not that that makes any difference, because just one act of rape or pedophilia, is far too many.

The image Bill Cosby’s attorneys
and “handlers’ were trying to portray of him yesterday during his arraignment
and bail hearing was insulting. In just a few months you go from someone who is
thriving and on the road to reviving your career with a new show, to a
crippled, disheveled, pathetic piece of a man who looks like he can barely remember
his own name? REALLY, Bill Cosby…go
away, and let’s just hope that “away” is behind bars for the rest of your
natural life.
