And paying for a secret abortion for one of his affairs.

I have no doubt he was equally sincere about the whole “sanctity of marriage” and “gays are pedophiles” routine.

Maybe. But compartmentalization is a hell of a drug.

Maybe it was a roundabout way of telling us that he was a pedophile adulterer. Quick, somebody play his speeches backwards for hidden messages!

I so hope SNL does something with a Bill Cosby lookalike chatting with a Josh Duggar lookalike.

So much potential.

You know, I acknowledge they both did wrong and are both deserving of ire and all that. But, for me at least, there was sadness and a sense of loss with the Cosby news that I just can’t muster for Duggar.

I was listening to Cosby vinyl since I was 3 or 4 years old. All my life he has been making me laugh and want Jell-O. For me, it’s almost as if he has died. I can’t be alone in feeling that way. And despite having a wicked sense of humor I just don’t think I could laugh at anything that compares these two guys.

It is upsetting that anyone would answer yes to that. But since there are terrible people out there, it’s nice for OKCupid users that they can see what people answer there, and know to stay far away from anyone who answers yes to that.

It should. Gothardite women are told they should be available whenever their husbands want sex. Clearly Anna wasn’t doing her job, what with keeping up the house, three little kids, a newborn baby and feeding Josh’s fat ass.

I was about to say I hope she has a friend that she can vent to at least, but I believe that they basically think it’s a sin to appear or be unhappy, so I don’t know if she can even do that.

Ex-Quiverfull women sound a lot like ex-FLDS women, and one thing they’ve all said is that they never saw a marriage that could be described as happy, for either party.

This is making me think so much of my uncle. I think he believed in all the “Quiver full” crap. My aunt had five kids for him, stayed home and taught them, and I never saw him do anything to parent my cousins: tie a show, make a sandwich, blow a nose, etc.

Anyway, it turned my uncle had been molesting their middle daughter for some time. He also admitted to having affairs with multiple women, (when he had to go on “business trips”) and spending about $30,000 in gifts for them.

My aunt had to move 5 kids across 6 states, live in our house for a month and reboot their lives, but she’s remarried and they’re better off than if they had stayed with him.

Free that entire family.

I too only get my news from the dope which is why I know Satan was our previous President and God is our current President. And most likely Female God will be our next President.

Lots of potential, but you know it’ll just suck if they actually do it. They won’t have anything to say about it, it’ll (supposedly) be intrinsically funny that Kenan Thompson is Cosby and Taran Killam is Duggar and they look doofy.

I just relish the thought of the two commiserating. “Bitches!” “Yeah, bitches!” Sadly shaking their heads.

Well good. Pornography is bad and evil and bad and sinful and bad and no one should partake of it. Committing adultery, while although being one of the Ten Commandments, is just a meh and a slap on the wrist.

I don’t get how this kind of hypocrisy does not bother Republicans. Josh Duggar, that vehemently pro-life politician that got caught forcing his mistress to get a abortion, Ted Haggard (who was strongly anti-gay and actively pushing legislation to his millions of parishioners, but was secretly engaging male prostitutes and fucking a male youth in his church). You guys get all upset about Algore riding on an airplane, but Algore is not trying to make this illegal. These guys are shoving morality that they don’t even believe in down other peoples throats while making huge amounts of money doing it. What gives?

Oh and your crap about Obama being the one is just stupid, nobody here believes that (Sanders, however…) any more than you believe George Bush was the greatest president ever. Nobody here has ever believe that even if many of us were excited about him when he took office. To me, he has been a disappointment, but I would vote for him again over any of the Republican ass-clowns currently running.

Drunky Smurf is not a Republican.
