During a press conference on Wednesday, President Obama was asked if he had any plans to revoke Cosby’s Medal of Freedom.
“With respect to the Medal of Freedom. There is no precedent for revoking a medal. We don’t have that mechanism. As you know I don’t like to comment on the specifics of cases where there might still be, if not criminal, then civil, issues involved,” said Obama.
He then added, “I’ll say this… If you give a woman, or a man for that matter, without his or her knowledge a drug, and have sex with that person without consent, that’s rape. I think this country, any civilized country, should have no tolerance for rape.” ~Greg Chisholm
