At the Entrance of the City Gates...

Do-be-do-be-do...

People should not go around beating up Cookie Monster. Lee Purcell McPhatter should be ashamed of himself. No more ashamed than Charlie Rose should be. The man had two other men on his show today and they were talking about the Kobe Bryant case. Both are apparently high profile attorneys. They also both were borderline disrespectful to to the victim, or alleged victim, whatever. Like they wanted to be just flat out rude but knew they were on national television so weren't. One of them made a point and the other agreed that a "decent" percentage of rape charges turn out to be that the woman wished she hadn't afterwards and so tried to claim it was rape. They didn't have numbers or anything, just "a decent" percentage. They said this as though it cleared Kobe from the allegations. Bastards. Usually I like Charlie Rose but not today, though he did try and keep them in check after they agreed on the "decent" percentage. Still, he definitly should have had a woman on his little panel, it might have seemed somewhat more balanced then.
