So Bill Cosby’s wife says yeah, he’s a bad guy, but not as bad as you think.
This would be a classic example of what my longtime friend Dave calls an UCRA—U (You) Can Rationalize Anything.
Mrs. Cosby is doing the best she can with a rotten situation. The scaffolding of her extensive adult life is shattering. She is in my prayers.
Look, folks. Bill Cosby is at least sick, and quite possibly evil. Do your level best to make peace with that. I deeply wish he weren’t, but he is. Everything we’ve loved about him all our lives is valid, but we must separate it from the man. Break off the good pieces and take them with us.
It’s a career of 50+ years of outwardly apparent positivity the guy’s had, but he won’t outrun this. He’s done.
I am too. No more Cosby posts. I hate that it’s ended like this, but it has.

Money, power, but mostly mystique. Nobody wanted to believe it even when it was two-dozen-plus women. Imagine the futility of a single woman raising the flag.
