Does anybody care what Woopie says? I doubt it.

Well, they both are different people than who we were led to believe they are.

And honestly, if Obama was slipping drugs into drinks, it would probably be men's drinks.

I got something on my RSS feed today that said Whoopi is still defending Cosby, even after his allegation.

HOW IN THE HELL can you still defend him after what he confessed?

That's insanity.

Perhaps, but there is no evidence that he is or isn't. There *is* ample evidence that he is a fraud and a liar, and also that he is grossly incompetent at his current post. And no evidence that he ever has done or is capable of doing anything to bring peace to the world.

No- because he's black.

So in Republicans' minds he's pretty much the same guy as Bill Cosby.

I agree that he apparently won it for being "not Bush", but I think they asked him to give it back after actually seeing how "peaceful" his Administration actually is.
If true they were correct to want it back but for the wrong reason. He is a world citizen and not a true advocate for the U.S. He gives aid and comfort to the enemy while adhering to them.

Not really since he doesn't really talk up the value of family or work. Makes him less of a hypocrite and more of a dedicated militant.

Just out of curiosity...

How many of these "family values" types have to be exposed as rapists, adulterers, thieves and liars before ya'll start to notice a pattern?

Well, Newt Gingrich, and a bunch of the televangelists.

One reason that I refuse to classify myself as a conservative or adopt conservative social values is that I won't advocate standards I don't plan on keeping myself. Even though I am quite the family man and have not cheated on my wife, ever, I still have many faults.

Does it really matter? A medal is symbolic and has no actual value. It's not like when people heard the Cosby allegations, there first thought was about the medal. It's probably not something anyone even thought of until some obsessive blogger found out about it and decided to talk about how important it would be to take the medal away (despite the fact that it really doesn't matter at all).

Same with Obama. Give out all the prizes you want; the prize itself is pointless. When a doctor finds a cure for a dangerous disease, do you really think it's the medal they got for doing it that mattes? Of course not. Because that would be ****ing stupid.
