Cosby

By CHRISTIAN TOTO

BREITBART BIG HOLLYWOOD

Bill Cosby joined a growing chorus of President Obama defenders this week who can only see any and all GOP opposition to the Commander in Chief in terms of race.

And did Cosby throw down the race card with alacrity during an interview Monday on, where else, CNN. Outgoing CNN anchor Soledad O’Brien asked Cosby if race relations have improved since Obama became president, and the star of The Cosby Show brought up the recent State of the Union speech.

“To see people sitting down and then they there are others standing and cheering. I don’t think it’s difficult believe. I think that we have people sitting there who are as bad as the people who were against any kind of desegregation.”

Is this the first SOTU speech Cosby ever watched? It’s standard practice for the opposing party’s enthusiasm to be muted during the event. And let’s not forget the ferocious GOP bashing Obama does on a near-daily basis, poisoning the bipartisan well to unheard of levels.

Cosby was just warming up the ill-informed race rhetoric.

“It’s also interesting that this Republican Party is not the Republican Party of 1863, of Abraham Lincoln, abolitionists and slavery, is not good. I think it’s important for us to look at the underlying part of it. What is the value of it? Is it that some people are angry because my people no longer want to work for free?”

    Love you Bill, but “your people” disowned you when you spoke the truth. You are misinterpreting the current political pulse. In fact, you are 180 degrees out of phase on this one.

    Wrong Mr. Cosby. The democratic party has created a battalion of people believing that it will only strive if government intervenes for them. As though the black race is not intelligent enough to be successful on their own. My grandmother was a beautiful black woman who created a huge business with no help from the government and who made sure they hired single moms so she too could help them succeed in life. You are 100% incorrect on that one.

    So sad when a presumably intelligent (& influential) person says things that are so profoundly ignorant & uninformed! Bill, you’re getting senile!

    “Your people” don’t want to work, PERIOD!

    I really hope this is not true. It’s hard to believe that Bill Cosby would stoop this low.

    …gee whiz Bill, MY people are Americans… and they come in every race and color …who are YOUR people?

    Just a worn out comedian that isn’t funny any more throwing that old worn out race card. Sorry to break it to you people of “Other than white” skin. You can be anything.. even president. Lose the crutch of racism, and open your eyes to see that not everything (In fact very little of anything) has to do with race. Just the losers that can’t seem to let go of something that never happened to them a long time ago by nobody that’s alive now. You race card throwers are pathetic. I want equality for all, but that means if there’s a Latino channel, and a BET, and an American Negro College Fund, and Black History Month, you should have no qualms about there being a “White” version of these things. What I usually see, are the ones screaming “Racism” the loudest, like Sharpton and Jackson, need only look in the mirrors to see the closest racist to them.

      Sharpton and Jackson need to turn in their white collars and Reverend title. How can these black ministers not have a problem with the abortion of so many black babies every DAY! They need to preach the message of God and not Obama.

    Obviously cosby does not understand or has been asleep for most of his life. The democratic party has been holding blacks as slaves for years. Democrats throw them a few bones and they respond at the voting booth saying, thank ya massa!

    Senility has overtaken the Coz. Too bad, he always had such a keen wit, but just like Goldwater before he died, it shows that age destroys the brain long before the body gives up.

  • ELOHIMISGOD

    You know, I do respect Mr. Cosby and most of the things that he puts forth; nevertheless, I disagree with him; right now, Amen!
    When are you so call smart people going to get of this COLOR KICK, and start dealing with the CHARACTER KICK, because that was what my brother Dr. King was all about, Amen!
    You know, I also had to drink out of color only water fountain; and go to the only color rest room, the eatery and all the other stuff that when ad to deal doing that time and even was put on the chain gang when we got lockup for demonstration, Amen!
    Mr. Cosby did not learn anything from our brother King. Do you all want to know about what a UNCLE TOM IS, I can tell you all about them and how their “SOLD THEIR PEOPLE DOWN THE RIVER AND THE VOTERS REGISTRATION CAMPAIGN AND HOW THOSE UNCLE TOMS DID IT”, Amen!
    You see, I was one of them that worked against those TOMS, just like so many others in Charleston, South Carolina, Amen!
    YES, I am SICK OF YOU SO CALLED LEADERS OF THE BLACK COMMUNITIES, THAT SPEAKS WITH SUCH HATE, because all you people do is MAKE THESE JACKASS STATEMENT, Amen!
    You people talk as if you are the ONLY ONES that KNOWS ABOUT SLAVERY, if it was not for the Republicans (that you all seem to HATE SO MUCH) we would possibly still be FIELD NIGGERS (YES I USED THE FORBIDDEN WORD, BECAUSE THEY ARE THOSE THAT ARE CALLING MY PEOPLE THAT, AND THEIR BLACK), Amen!

    I do not need Mr. Cosby, Mr. Jackson, Mr. West or Al; or the rest of those to think for myself or for my people, Amen!!!
    Mr. Evans

    Foolish & stupid man! So sad to have someone as influential as Mr. Cosby spout such ignorance. And to think that, even though I am not a Black American, I grew up watching The Cosby Show & loving the common-sense tactics him & Phylicia Rashad used in teaching their kids “life skills.” Not to mention all of the true to life stand up he did that I enjoyed so much. He’s just become another UN-relatable Hollywood has-been left-wing nutjob.

    Damn! The Cos is on to us!

  • billygeturgun

    It appears that the true “color” of Cosby is finally coming to the surface. I have had so much respect for him in recent years for his call to blacks to get off the entitlement rolls and off the streets and become productive citizens. Now he blows it by doing what always happens, he played the race card! Sorry Bill, but it’s gonna take a lot of atta boys to make up for this ah-poop! Dude, you blew it. And isn’t funny that he never said anything about nobama refusing to face the flag with his hand over his heart or refusing to wear a flag pin because it had a negative overtone. GIMME A BREAK! Can anyone say hypocrite?

  • billygeturgun

    And one more thing, and this is a big one: Why in the hell is there a “black sphere” without any complaint when if there was a “white sphere”, the blacks would be raising all kinds of cane? Can you say hypocrites? Man, you gotta love that double standard in America.

    • ARMYOF69

      NO, can you say RACISTS?

  • ARMYOF69

    BILL COSBY, has become a far left racist.

  • wildeagleone

    The COS and all the black followers of Obama will understand slavery if Obama ever succeeds in taking over this country and becomes the dictator. The rich blacks may escape it but the younger ones sure as hell won’t
