Are there some things you'd like to say about the mothers of these
babies, John? Don't hold back on us...don't be covert...just say it...go

What's there to say, except that they're irresponsible and have
seriously juxtaposed priorities.

I suppose Harry considers me a racist because I believe in parental
responsibility.

I suppose Bill Cosby is also a racist. He feels much the same way.

Cosby, as usual, is right on the money. Much of his comedy is derived
from lampooning real life. I've never seen a greater truth than when
he performed his "Himself" routine.

Bill has his finger on the pulse of the black community, and see's
what's wrong. But for some reason, if a white person were to make
these comments, those comments would be carried under the ton of
accusations about racism which would no doubt be the result.

Hopefully, the fact that Cosby is black himself, will allow his words
to sink in a little instead of being discarded out of hand and branded
as "racist" without even considering what the content of those words
are.

It's almost funny to see the spin meisters try to categorize Cosby, in
a continued effort to deny and refuse to face the truth of his words.
