President Obama was asked about the sexual assault allegations surrounding legendary comedian Bill Cosby. Without directly calling him a rapist, Obama carefully answered the question saying:
“If you give a woman … or a man for that matter … a drug and then have sex with that person without consent … that’s rape.
“And I think this country, any civilized country, should have no tolerance for rape.”
When asked if he would revoke Cosby’s Presidential Medal of Freedom – which he received in 2002 – Obama responded saying there was no precedent for that…adding: “We don’t have a mechanism.”
