Yep --- if he was really a liberal he would have sat Theo down and explained to him that it was the white man's fault, that having great great ancestors in slavery was a hinderance he could never overcome and told him to get out and demand reparations.
I remember a time when Bill Cosby reached out to a family who had lost a child to violence around the same time Bill lost his son. Bill Cosby's views may not match with mine, but I admire his giving nature.
When did that happen?
Well, that's for sure, we can't have that kind of 'hate' speech. (Barf) But, really, it's pure genius. We need more Clarence Thomas'. What a pleasant surprise, I didn't really expect it from him. More need to hear his message.
Wow....he looks just like the cartoon!
And landed an executive position at Wham-O.
Karma
Cosby isn't quoted as even mentioning Blacks. He says "lower economic". He's right. But really it's the lower and the upper both. The whole culture is going downhill.
Exacly! I don't know how to do links but type in Bill Crosby snubs Rice and you will see the article
Cosby is the best. I have a first edition hardback book by him on Marriage and intend to try to make one of his shows to get it signed, Lord willing.

oh, i forget...must be 4 or 5 years.
tammy bruce was an late evening radio host on kfi 640 am los angeles. she's a lesbian, but i found her honest. growing up poor, she rose to head n.o.w. of los angeles.
later she flipped from democrat to republican. she's now best buds with david horowitz.
the issue was the murder of cosby's son. he was driving a luxury car and had a flat on the 405 between west l.a. and the valley at night. he got out to change it and was murdered by a russian immigrant. the cops found him, and brought him to justice.
mrs. cosby went ballastic on national media, saying something to the effect that the united states is a racist country and this was to blame for her son's death.
tammy took the opposite, and common sense view imo, she said what happened was regretable, but could happen to any american. any american that stopped that night in the santa monica mountains to change a tire would have been robbed and murdered by that crazy russian immigrant.
so much for free speech. mrs. cosby used her husband's billion dollar empire to complain to the owners of kfi. tammy was removed from her long-standing kfi radio show. money has its privileges, even if the opinion of mrs. cosby is reverse-racism and commonsensical not.
tammy is now a "right-wing" lesbian! she had a book out a couple years ago. the los angeles times mag did a piece on her when she got her bachelors degree from usc at middle age, starting with her dinner invite to horowitz's right wing mansion in malibu, and ending with a media observation that a phd in politics might be in her future because she's very bright. obviously the radical left and feminists of los angeles hate her guts.
"his wifey was totally out of line when she got kfi radio talkshow host tammy bruce fired. "
I'm a big Tammy fan and always wondered why she left KFI. What happened? I just listened to her today on KABC. Maybe Tammy is getting the last laugh, her books are very good and she is hosting in national markets now.
Tammy still says she is a classic liberal...she does not appear "right wing" to me. She just has common sense. In one of her books she described the outrage of republicans after the OJ trial, and told about how many people, mainly republicans, sent checks to NOW ...something about OJ. They just mainly trusted that Tammy would do the right thing with the checks. That seemed to have impressed her. I highly recommend the "Death of Right and Wrong".
