Of course this won't happen. They will constantly quote Bill Cosby all day long because of the way he delivered the message in discust which mirrors their true feelings.

When the message is delivered with a positive spin and included everyone they can't deal with it because it conflicts with their gut feelings.

Amen!

Exactly...all the Obama haters should think how Bush is the reason for this money problem. I took macroeconomics and Bush messed up.

Oh lord, the idiot is telling men how to be a good father??

What teach them how to scam people, suck up to crooks with money, never work a day in your life, how to use crack and drink yourself to pieces when you are depressed and mixed up.

Oh yea, sounds like a great fatherly advise from an idiot.

If anything you need to teach your kids to grow up and earn their way instead of using others and your race to get you the things you need and want in life like he has. Damn guy has never worked a day in his life and never earned a dime of his own money and he want to tell others how to be a good dad.

So where is all the Bill Cosby haters now, Cosby knows the real problem and when he spoke out the African American community wanted to hang him for telling the truth.

Obama needs to concentrate on what we pay him to do, and so far like in his past, he has not earned his pay like usual.

Taking advice from an ex druggie and alcoholic, oh yea ain't that great?

Maybe we should ask the two illegal nannies Obama was paying in Chicago what kind of Dad he was?

As someone who is in the advertising field, let me give you some advice... When you tell a blatantly obvious lie like the one I bolded above, it undermines the believability of your entire argument to your audience. Or doesn't being a lawyer count as working and earning your own money in bizarro world?

And there are plenty of ex-druggies and alcoholics that are good dads. Or did you think that all of the people who used drugs during the 60s or recovered from alcoholism were horrible parents? Heck, there have been Presidents who suffered from alcohol dependence while they served. Nixon comes to mind.
