Dr. Bill Cosby, I am ashamed of you and for you.
I have been a fan and admirer, of you from the days when your only exposure was your wonderful comedy albums. I still relish my memories of your stories about theme music and the movie theatre monster statue at the top of the steps. I have always considered you a man of good character, and of an honest and decent heart. And now I feel as if you have betrayed a lifetime of dispelling the evil that sneaks it's way into the hearts of men through racism. You have conspired with evil. You are conspiring wityh that self same hate, when you support those of the Left who use racism and black americans as their political weapons against decent people who do not hold racist beliefs.
I want you to remember me. I want you to remember that theatre in Cleveland, a discussion on race relations and how best to bring a better understanding and open hearts to the discussion. How it was discussed that a show, showing the life of a prosperous black american family, showing that their daily struggles were not greatly different from the white family in america. How I knew of upstanding doctors and lawyers who typified this experience. And that when asked, who could star in that show, and make it a success, I only had to think a second to thinm of you. I want you to remember *exactly who I am, and know that I feel you have betrayed yourself and the people you seem to think you are defending from a old evil. An evil you are now falsely accusing innocent people of being.
I have been, and shall probably always will hold you and your body of work in high regard. But when I heard you talik on MSNBC this afternoon, lining up with the false accusers of the Left, who are attempting to use Black Americans as their political cannon faodder, use them to incite racial tension and threaten race riots if the Democrats should face the real threat of losing power in the political realm....It was as if I watched you fall from the grace of God. I know that life has dealt you some bitter blows, and I have commiserated with you in your suffering and stood on your side through the false accusations.
When you support the Democrats like this, you are supporting those who truly *do* think Blacks are not as smart, and need to be told how to live their lives, who only give blacks a conditional fish a day. Do not fall further into the pit Dr Cosby. Be true to what you know to be the Gods truth. Don not betray those who believe in you. Do not betray yourself, by falling in with those who use such evil lies to get their way.
Oh, gawd. He didn’t. :( I’m sooooooooo disappointed.
Bill is a brilliant but troubled man. I hope he finds the right road.
His wife probably put him up to it.
Yep. Rush just played the clip.
It is the soft bigotry of lowered expectations. They are insulting the President by implying he should be coddled and treated differently than every other President before him because of his race.
Since Ennis was murdered, he appears to have slid into heavy alcohol use, and he's erratic at best, insane at worst.
He’s flirted with the filthy left in the past too.
In one short, Cosby blamed the white man for black boys being allegedly more interested in chaos and violence themes.
Same guy who supported Tawana Brawley so easily before the facts were out.
What did Bill say?
Rich Black People...*shakes head*
“Since Ennis was murdered, he appears to have slid into heavy alcohol use, and he’s erratic at best, insane at worst. “
That was a horrible crime. If that set him off, all I can do is pray for him.
Colin Powell, Bill Cosby....the same!
It’s called Affirmative Action at work...at 1600 Penn.
More about the circumstances? Was a white perp (or worse, a racist white perp) to blame?
When Mr. Cosby walked out on the stage, he dumped a huge turd in their laps regarding the color of their skin and their “obvious” racism because they were white. My folks who were very active in the civil rights movement before it was “cool” were extremely offended and never spoke his name again. If came on TV, they’d turn the channel. This is not a new phase, just a return to the old.
It had to do with our founders being racists and things about Rush that I only caught part of.
Well said....
Shot by a common robber.
“Colin Powell, Bill Cosby....the same!”
But much different circumstances
Cosby came up the hard way, entirely by his own effort.
Powell is a GOP member who had backers all during his career. He of all people, should know better. He is a veritable jackass.
Thanks.
Driving a Mercedes convertable on the 405 Freeway. Easy mark.
Boy, these blacks are doing more for race relations than the KKK could ever dreamed of.
“His wife probably put him up to it.”
You are on the mark.
I remember when their son was murdered by a Russian citizen. He was white. Mrs. C. blamed all of us American whities for his murder. I have never trusted Bill since then. It sounded like Mrs. C. showed both their true colors. They very much hate us.
“More about the circumstances? Was a white perp (or worse, a racist white perp) to blame?”
To my knowledge, the perp was never caught.
Ukrainian to be exact. Ukraine was once part of the USSR. (A situation that Russia would like to bring about again.)
Why are conservatives the only one who see that?
Not a good reason to hate white Americans.
Mmmmm, Wikipedia says he did get caught. Bill Cosby did not want perp to get death penalty, and perp got LWOP + 10 years.
Isn’t it wonderful-—all this Dem jimmed up talk of ‘racism’ is so inspiring and uplifting. Such unity it produces too ay? Well I hope the true racist Dems are proud of the fruits of their putrid references to racism in everything via paranoid thoughts. Disgusts the soul to its core!
I used to respect this man, but no more.
P.S.
I never considered his TV shows funny. It was all canned laughter.
They were all a bunch of Shiite.
I stand corrected. Don’t know why I missed it. I lived about 2 miles from Cosby back then.
With friends like Bill Cosby who needs enemies. Sounds to me like he’s a manic depressive. Someday (though of course I hope not) we may hear of Bill Cosby committing suicide, perhaps killing his wife in the process.
Wasn’t that black on black crime?
Fat Albert was so cute.
Me too, stock. Me too. I even bought the ‘Fat Albert’ series for my boys because of the wonderful messages the shows had in them (I grew up watching the show - one of my faves). No more.
He was a Ukrainian emigrant. Mikhail Markhasev.
What would Robert Culp say.
Oh, and ‘The Cosby Show’ my boys love, as well.
Well, what can we expect when we are all racists now, 55% of us.
He is of enough means that he can carry on to date without the need of psychiatric intervention. I would not be surprised to see him totally lose it some day.
People don’t see on purpose. When you are so emotionally invested in an ideal, person, thought, or object, it is hard to look at that critically or rationally. They are completely missing the angle that these people (Cosby, Carter, Pelosi, etc) are also insulting Obama and every other African American by implying (or directly saying) they shouldn’t be treated as equals, instead they have some sort of deficiency and must be given previsions such as not having to deal with criticism or challenges.
There would be no black citizens if not for the Republican Party and its many battles with Democrats for over one hundred years on behalf of blacks. Bill needs to pick up a history book.
Really,how sad.
