Rush Limbaugh said that some elements of the media like CNN are trying to “destroy” the grandfatherly comedian. Limbaugh has spoken approvingly of Cosby’s “pull-up-your-baggy-pants” lectures to young African-Americans. On Friday, he said of the allegations of sexual misconduct by multiple women, “It’s not like he did it yesterday."
Take a second to think about that. Why in the world would they be out to destroy Cosby? Because that "baggy pants" comment he made years ago? Does that make any sense at all? Of course not. When facts arise that don't line up with your world view--dismiss them, or ignore them, or change the facts. That's the way Rush Limbaugh rolls.
It's the only way to remain ideologically pure in a world that isn't.
(And here's another reason why I am not tracking with Rush on this. Another woman came out with her story.. And here are the rest of them.)
