BHR Hollywood Reports.................During a news conference Wednesday in the East Room, President Obama was asked about the allegations stacked up against Cosby

Bill Cosby 

The press conference, which was intended to cover the newly struck Iran nuclear deal comes one day after the U.S. and five other world powers sealed the long-sought and controversial deal.

A reporter asked a question regarding whether he will revoke comedian Bill Cosby's Medal of
Freedom.

Obama Response Was:

"There's no precedent for revoking a medal,". "We don't have that mechanism."

Obama's statements follow behind the partial unsealing of Cosby's 2005 deposition which included his admission of drugging women for sex.

"If you give a woman, or a man, for that matter, without his or her knowledge a drug, and then have sex with that person without consent, that's rape," Obama said.

"And I think this country, any civilized country, should have no tolerance for rape."

More than two dozen women have accused Cosby of sexual misconduct in the past four decades, and many alleged that he drugged and raped them.

The 78-year-old comedian, who has never been charged with a crime, denied some accusations while declining to comment or respond to the others.

In addition to Cosby's legal woes, a group supporting sexual assault victims is petitioning President Barack Obama to revoke Cosby's Presidential Medal of Freedom.
