One of the sad consequences of the fall of Bill Cosby is the exposure of his cynicism.

It wasn't the exposure of cynicism, but rather hypocrisy. I am grateful to God that few people know of mine; be grateful to God if few people know of yours.

A virtuous message?

Cosby is and always has been a race-baiting Obama lover. He called Republicans racists for not standing at a SOTU speech, and said they were no better than segregationists.

He has praised Muslims as admirable and deserving of respect, and said we should all try to be more like them.

His “message” can go rot.

Any white man who was accused of what Bill Cosby has been would be in jail already. That’s the message.

I think Crosby’s commentary on black youth has more to do with marketing than anything else.

People 25 and younger aren’t his audience. People 55 and older are his audience.

Which group is more likely to respond favorably to his observations?

I don't see what this has to do with rape charges. Please explain.

Thank you for posting those links. I got called away and was just coming back to do so myself.

"I don't see what this has to do with rape charges. Please explain."

It has nothing to do with them. But it's quite relevant to the article, which lauds Cosby's so-called positive "message."

It's also relevant to the issue of conservatives who persist in thinking of the guy as some sort of reasonable thinker, based solely on a couple of isolated comments he made.

// irresponsible black baby daddies who abandon their children. //

Yet he fed one child to the tabloids to get an article on his rapes spiked and he abandoned another possible one (he admitted the affair). He is beyond hypocritical.

And this fluff piece, author is reading a message into Cosby that isn’t there. He is about empowerment, and rape is about power, the fact almost all of the women (21 by last count) were either white or bi-racial just screams a race element. The reason the media are not covering this angle is because the party line is blacks aren’t racist - even when they are.

Bingo, I don’t get why some conservatives feel they have to praise Cosby like he is one of us. He isn’t. He did work hard, get an education and rise to top, but he is typical liberal Hollywood.

So he says “pull up your pants”, that doesn’t make him a conservative and considering the rape allegations - he should have taken his own advice.

And labeled a racist.

That is the Bill Cosby public image, not the real one. Do you know him IRL or are you going with the image?

We don’t know celebrities unless we actually KNOW them.

Exactly. IMO some folks get so excited by the prospect of a black person who might be conservative that it doesn't take much at all to convince them of what they want to believe.

You seem to know Cosby's "private" image pretty well.
