OH, NO! NOT CHARLIE, TOO!

It seems the world of power is under siege. It seems also that every time I look in the newspapers or watch TV, someone is accused of being a scumbag from the world of power.

Case in point: the ‘Honorable Roy Moore' US Senatorial candidate former DA and predator of young under-age girls. One does not need to go far away from the august body and find Senator Al Franklin, apparently with good humor, a critic who would at a drop of a hat in his Liberal self-righteousness, condemn anyone for sexual indiscretion. not once but a few pictures to see what his senatorial business was about. RFK and his little brother, Teddy the swimmer, one of the most notorious slime bags of all time, both men of power, both slime. JFK, RFK, and little minded Teddy all vied for the physical attributes of Judith Exner. They learned it all from Joe Kennedy, the patriarch, and good Christian, and Ambassador to the Court of St. James.

But let's not spend our time in the Senate, let's go see what is happens in the White House for years. There is FDR, DDE, JFK, we have George H. Bush pinching and grabbing, Bill Clinton and his personal handler Monica Lewinsky, and of course the Presidential candidate and now President, boasting and bragging about how he is disrespecting women.

 There is the on-going case of the once beloved Bill Cosby, doping and drugging women then sexually abusing them. Claims he is innocent. There is the movie mogul who has helped in a big way, Harvey Weinstein and his arrogant and outrageous behavior, bringing attention to this irrational and disgusting behavior. Sly Stallone, rapist extraordinaire, what role can he plan now, a President, a Priest, maybe a Senator? Men of power. And most of all, we have the clergy who have taken time and time gain the trust and respect they get from people who don't question their motives and abused not only the trust but the children that fell victim and still do to this day. But my world has been shaken by the latest revelation. A man of great intelligence, news reporter, commentator, and interviewer of a lot of great men, Charlie Rose! How can it be this bad that even those I had respect for have disappointed me!

My anger stems from the fact that these are not only predators but bullies, they take advantage and think they are above human decency. I say this to them, drop dead scum, you should be ashamed of yourselves, don't any of you have a wife, or daughter, maybe a daughter-in-law or granddaughter? If what you have done was done to your loved ones, how would you feel? Where would your outrage be, not only for the predator but for the thought that it occurred from someone like you?
