The fact there was a financial ‘settlement’ involved in two women leaving their employment with the NRA could mean many things besides a payoff for sexual harassment complaint. Has Politico ever heard the term ‘severance package’?
For example Poltico reported on just such an event involving ACORN in 2009...............Acorn has filed a lawsuit (POLITICO has the complaint) on behalf of itself, plus two employees caught on video tape handing out advice on how to avoid paying taxes on a brothel and hush up the employment of underage sex workers. Acorn claims Tonja Thompson and Shera Williams “suffered extreme emotional distress with attendant physical symptoms and injury to their reputations.” I guess Acorn ought to know; the group’s chief, Bertha Lewis, fired the employees and trashed them on the TV talk shows last weekend.
Acorn’s lawsuit seeks $500,000 in damages for each of the employees they fired, plus $1 million for each in punitives, presumably due to the damage to their reputations inflicted by Acorn. Of course, the real goal here is to intimidate the heroic filmmakers, James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, along with Andrew Breitbart who publicized the shocking footage, with harassing litigation designed to drain their wallets and publicly slime them.
I think this is going to backfire on their lying a$$es.
Cain’s numbers are going to go up, not down, as a result of this.
What are Barry, Willard and Karl going to do???
Let's say there was a ‘financial settlement’ (just speculating not saying there was) over some ‘accusation’. That would be in return for them dropping accusations, only to break the agreement by making them again anonymously in an attempt to get Cain to bring out the ‘accusations’ publicly himself. If that was the case then what if Cain denies it?? They bring out other 'witnesses' outside of the agreement ?
I witnessed exactly this thing happen last summer. My boss was in an office with two women, the door was wide open, and there were other people in the hallway. Both women in that office hated my boss, but he didn't realize the extent of their hatred until later. One of the women was pregnant, and he made a comment to the effect of, “How's the baby? Have you picked a name yet? Maybe you could name him Frank. Frank is a good name.” Frank was my boss's name (fictional name for this story).
The pregnant woman took EXTREME offense to that, because she hated him so much. She accused him of being inappropriate, and that his comment implied that they had had sex! She found that thought so repugnant that she retained a LAWYER!! And she had the “witness” because of the other woman.
My boss nearly got run off, even though his comment was intended to be friendly in nature. Both of those women were absolutely useless as employees, and should have been dismissed long ago because of their horrible work performance. They knew it, and there were massive layoffs coming, so they used this to keep their jobs for several more weeks (until the project ended). My poor boss had to put up with their superior attitudes during that time because they had a lawyer.
Women can be extremely vicious, and Men are always on the defensive when it comes to these things. It's always “guilty until proven innocent” in these cases.
Time will bring all the details out in the open. We'll see how it all shakes out.
First the msm were after Rubio. Now they are after Herman. All with BS articles. Who’s next?
