Cosby has been pretty vocal lately about how the black community has to step up and take control of raising their kids. He's ticked off alot of people. Whenever you raise unpopular issues and speak your mind, you are labled a trouble-maker and become a target of retaliation. Hasn't it been a year since this alleged incident occurred? If so, why did she wait so long? It's all in the timing as far as I'm concerned.

Kobe Bryant doesn't dispute that he had sex with his accuser. Bill O'Reilley was apparently taped having phone sex with his accuser. Bill Cosby (according to the article) acknowledges that he had sex with this accuser. All 3 famous, married men left themselves wide open for allegations of rape or sexual harassment. Apparently they also left their zippers wide open. Stupid stupid stupid.

Cosby? Yes. His wife's name is Camille.

And he was alone with this woman.

This is what we call a "self-inflicted wound".

It could be true. Conservatives do nutty stuff too. I mean who knew Rush was popping pills? By the way I'm glad they found out about him. He could've killed himself. I love the guy. And we got Bill O'Reilly playing around with a vibrator and doing phone sex. I still don't know what a guy does with a vibrator, but that's just me I guess.

Boy, an influential black person who tells people to do the right thing... the MSM can't be having that, can they.

Please, Cosby already has atleast ONE kid out of wedlock so hes no stranger to the ladies, all the while hes going around spouting off about Blacks needing to act more "civil" etc...

Hes a hypocrite, kinda like Rush with his "pill" problem.

Cosby's accuser is reportedly a former basketball standout at the University of Arizona who worked at Temple for several years before returning to her native Canada to attend massage school. /quote

Massage school? Was she planning on working at the Clinton library and massage parlor?

My guess is that Cosby has been a little too outspoken as of late on some controversial issues....he's being told to shut up.

Cosby admitted no such thing in this article. Unindentified sources (perhaps with a liberal agenda) are the only ones saying that he did this, We don't even have direct quotes from these source(s). Sounds more like gossip than a news story. Innocent until proven guilty I say.

Investigators probing the sexual misconduct allegations made against Bill Cosby by a former Temple University employee have concluded there was sexual contact between the entertainer and the woman

A source close to the investigation told ABC News that Cosby's version of what happened between him and the woman and his accuser's story are similar in many ways. The dispute, the source told ABC News, is whether the contact between Cosby and the woman was consensual.

You're right. The article doesn't quote Cosby directly, just unnamed investigators and an unnamed source. Seeing as this is an ABC report, I'll withhold judgement other than to say again that if Cosby was alone with this woman and if there's any form of consensual contact, then he's as stupid stupid stupid as Kobe Bryant and Bill O'Reilley.

Would this one kid be Autumn Jackson, who was convicted and sentenced to five years for trying to extort $40 million from Bill Cosby by claiming to be his illegitimate daughter? If not her. then tell us who you're talking about.

I'm not buying this. The cleanness of the Bill's work, his lack of vulgarity and smuttiness, indicates that he has a sense of decency. The exposure of the foul accuser-slut that attacked Kobe doesn't mean other sluts won't attempt the same kinda thing...

First of all, we know of at least one affair he's had in the past.

Second, his statements about education and society are terrific, but he is no conservative and his wife has opined that "America" teaches whites to hate blacks.

Third, Cosby was mighty quick to believe the Tawana Brawley business, which was most likely an honest mistake in judgement, but honestly, I wish he had exhibited horror at being so outrageously deceived.

It's not the picture you portray. He is flawed and has some good things to say and some not so good things. In addition, he evidently has admitted (per the article, which being ABC I'll wait before fully believing) to the contact and the question now is one of consent.
