@GitRDoneLarry Fair Question
— Scott Millican (@LSUFAN869) November 20, 2014
Is there a double standard when it comes to how accused rapists Bill Cosby and Bill Clinton have been treated by the media and the public?
Honest question? How come Cosby is toast and Clinton is toast of the town? That's a fair question is it not?
— Larry The Cable Guy (@GitRDoneLarry) November 20, 2014
It is indeed. As Twitchy examined yesterday, Cosby has been vilified in the wake of rape allegations. Clinton, on the other hand, remains a leftist and feminist darling.
@GitRDoneLarry yeah I'd have to say apples and oranges on this one man

But why is that?
@GitRDoneLarry Rape is a lot different than cheating.

@GitRDoneLarry Theirs a difference between cheating and rape.

In Clinton’s case, it wasn’t just an issue of cheating.
@Oldyella49 but a few accused him of it.

He was accused of sexual harassment and rape by multiple women.

@GitRDoneLarry Good point! Many forget Juanita Broderick, Kathleen Wiley and Paula Jones all hold same accusations against Clinton.

It’s hard to ignore the inconsistency.
That was an honest question. No hate intended. I'm trying to figure out what the difference is.

@GitRDoneLarry Clinton had the media in his pocket…. Cosby doesn't …. The media props up liberal agenda no matter what
— Buddy Lyons (@Budro76) November 20, 2014
Maybe it’s all of the above.
Both were accused of basically the same thing. Neither one was charged as guilty but yet one is ruined and the other thrives. Just a ?
