35. Bill Cosby is a legend in his own mind...

Edited on Mon Nov-10-08 07:04 PM by regnaD kciN

...and The Cosby Show was the ideal "comfort program" for the Reagan '80s. Just sit back and let the free market do its magic, and we'll soon see upscale African-American doctors and lawyers with families right out of '50s sitcoms, except with more money and a tony urban townhouse instead of a white-picket-fence split-level in the suburbs. See? We didn't need to worry about all that liberal "social justice" nonsense -- just give us a good dose of the "Reagan Revolution," and credits-to-their-race like the Huxtables will spring up all over!
