President Obama on Wednesday said bluntly that the actions described in accusations that the comedian Bill Cosby drugged women for sex would constitute nothing less than rape, and he said the country should have “no tolerance” for such actions.
In his first comments on the decades-old accusations against Mr. Cosby, the president sought to carefully avoid a direct comment on civil legal actions that have been lodged against the longtime comedian and television star by several women in recent years. And he dismissed the idea that he might revoke the Presidential Medal of Freedom conferred on Mr. Cosby by President George W. Bush in 2002.
“There’s no precedent for revoking a medal,” Mr. Obama said in answer to an off-topic question during a long news conference that was otherwise focused on the nuclear deal with Iran announced Tuesday. “We don’t have that mechanism.”

The fact is, the President and Bill Cosby have wholly different styles when it comes to sexual conquests.
With gay men the consent is implied as soon as they get a gander at each other. Gay Men's rest rooms are occupied the moment a gay couple eye each other. With a heterosexual couple the rules are quite different. While a straight man has absolutely no inhibitions regarding a first encounter a straight female has a lot more to weigh before having sex. It's just the way of the species. Men are overwhelmingly impulsive while women are much more inhibited and tend to wait a lot longer. Whereas, men, by their very nature impulsive and out of control won't think twice about holding off. When you have two men with the same sexual dynamics, all hell breaks loose. Certainly no courtship or mind games involved. The urge to merge is very strong in men so when you have two men attracted to each other there's going to be fireworks the moment they meet.
Whereas, with a heterosexual couple there usually is a more controlled environment' due to issues of pride, not wanting to appear easy, or simply a hesitancy on the part of the woan to be more cautious. Hence the development of some sort of pill, even alcohol as an inhibitor to what otherwise is a more guarded sense when it cones to sex.
Gay men have a much easier time making conquests because the sexual energy is equal on both sides. Bill Cosby, despite his status in life, as a celebrity, a well-connected, very rich man, however repulsive, still has to resort to other methods of coercion to score.
Obama, of course wants to side with women because of his policies but as far as making conquests with men, he is wholly unfair to condemn Cosby for the much more difficult job of scoring than Obama ever had to struggle through.
Gay-dar. You're talking about Gay-dar.
Why is this assclown commenting on Cosby. Doesn’t he have a country to ruin, or a tee time to get to?
How does obama feel about the various rapes, sexual harassment and using power over people to get sex of the Clintons...?
Interesting coming from a guy who’s admitted doper and who’s Party and constituencies brought the drug culture here and ruined millions of lives and families
I had hoped that Dr. Huxtable wasn’t capable of this, but it looks like it’s true. It’s too bad.
It seems like the most publicly wholesome celebrities are usually the ones to watch out for (like Cosby and Stephen Collins).
Well ‘bath house Barry’ would know all about this kind of stuff....
Hey obama what about presidents that rape? Do we tolerate that?
It's getting pretty tough to avoid commenting on the Kate Steinle murder.....
If I hand a grandpa, he’d . . . . oops.
...said bluntly that the actions described in accusations that the comedian Bill Cosby drugged women for sex would constitute nothing less than rape, and he said the country should have "no tolerance" for such actions... he dismissed the idea that he might revoke the Presidential Medal of Freedom conferred on Mr. Cosby by President George W. Bush in 2002... "There's no precedent for revoking a medal," Mr. Obama said in answer to an off-topic question during a long news conference that was otherwise focused on the nuclear deal with Iran announced Tuesday. "We don't have that mechanism."But then again, we don't have a 'mechanism' for revoking trademarks of the Washington Redskins, imposing Obamacare, handing weapons to Mexican drug/crime cartels...
Yeah, if that was the case duh-1's Nobel would have been slag long ago.
Dr. Huxtable was FICTION. A character created by an actor, whose job is to get you to invest in that character.
I know you already know this but try not to get caught up in the FICTION.
Recall, Obama had hired as his “Safe School Czar” a degenerate who encouraged a homosexual relationship between a man and an under-aged boy.
From the Washington Times...
EDITORIAL: At the president’s pleasure
‘Safe school czar’ encouraged child sex with an older man
September 28, 2009
A teacher was told by a 15-year-old high school sophomore that he was having homosexual sex with an “older man.” At the very least, statutory rape occurred. Fox News reported that the teacher violated a state law requiring that he report the abuse. That former teacher, Kevin Jennings, is President Obama’s “safe school czar”. It’s getting hard to keep track of all of this president’s problematic appointments. Clearly, the process for vetting White House employees has broken down.
In this one case in which Mr. Jennings had a real chance to protect a young boy from a sexual predator, he not only failed to do what the law required but actually encouraged the relationship.
According to Mr. Jennings’ own description in a new audiotape discovered by Fox News, the 15-year-old boy met the “older man” in a “bus station bathroom” and was taken to the older man’s home that night. When some details about the case became public, Mr. Jennings threatened to sue another teacher who called his failure to report the statutory rape “unethical.” Mr. Jennings’ defenders asserted that there was no evidence that he was aware the student had sex with the older man.
However, the new audiotape contradicts this claim. In 2000, Mr. Jennings gave a talk to the Iowa chapter of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, an advocacy group that promotes homosexuality in schools. On the tape, Mr. Jennings recollected that he told the student to make sure “to use a condom” when he was with the older man. That he actively encouraged the relationship is reinforced by Mr. Jennings’ own description in his 1994 book, “One Teacher in 10.” In that account, the teacher boasts how he allayed the student’s concerns about the relationship to such a degree that the 15-year-old “left my office with a smile on his face that I would see every time I saw him on the campus for the next two years, until he graduated.”

Empty pantsuit Hillary would take it away with a “War on Quaaludes” storyline.This way she satisfies her female base without offending her black base. Typical Clintonesque third way nonsense.
