From "The Skimm":

Bill Cosby. Yesterday, Cosby sued supermodel Beverly Johnson for defamation. She’s one of at least 50 women who’ve said Cosby’s drugged, and in some cases, sexually assaulted them. Johnson told Vanity Fair last year all about her alleged encounter with Dr. Huxtable. Now, Cosby’s saying ‘not so’ and that Johnson’s story is a lie to boost her career. Cosby’s never been criminally charged. Last week, he countersued seven other women who’ve accused him of sexual assault.

Cosby is the Hermann Goering of serial rapists. "I haven't done anything wrong.", says Bill and Hermann.

Goering in 1945: "At least I had a good time, 12 great years..." Maybe Dr. Huxtable is thinking something similar.

He must spin one hell of a yarn - his wife still backing him up, says his victims "consented" to drugs and sex.

He should try for the Democratic nomination - he's a PR wiz. And his wife needs a reality check.

After another look, I realize the above could apply to the Clintons as well.

I don't think Clinton ever drugged women without their knowledge and then raped them like the allegations against Cosby.

The media reported that Clinton had consensual sex with someone other than his wife.

Surely you can see the difference.

He was accused - not on the scale of Cosby - never tried or convicted.

The degree of "malfeasance" certainly not that of what Cosby has been accused of.

It seems both have stand by your man wives, whatever their motivations.

They were accused of two entirely different things.

Crosby was accused of the crime of rape.

Clinton was accused of adultery.

Darn Cats, you paint with a broad brush.

I'm not coming to any conclusions - legally, there have been none regarding the accusations against Clinton or Cosby.

The circumstances struck me as similar - both powerful men good at their jobs, both accused by multiple women of sexual crimes; the wives of both men attesting to their innocence and questioning the motives of the accusers.
