Anti harassment laws are used to harass.
Anti discrimination laws are used to discriminate.
That happens a lot with laws that the libs are making.

As I remember it, sexual harassment laws came into effect to protect women from having to sleep with the boss to get a raise or a promotion.
How did it become a catch-all gotcha for any little offense, real or imagined?
A misplaced word or gesture can get a guy fired on someones say-so.
Laws have to be clear. This one needs a do-over or get scrapped.

A friend of mine had a sexual harassment lawsuit brought against him by an under-preforming female minority subordinate. (shocker)

My friend is openly gay and doesn’t want to have anything to do with women so the company told her to go pound sand.

LOL!

Do I hear correctly that a conservative radio host is now claiming to be an eyewitness to bad Cain behavior? Caught the end of a bit on the radio, but I think that’s what I heard. Yes, no?

This is where the national discussion needs to be, the entire crock of s-it that is sexual harassment. There is an entire sub-industry of shaking down companies and individuals.

I wasn’t always like this, but nowadays in the workplace, I’m cordial as much as needed, but otherwise coldly businesslike. In today’s hostile environment, with people searching for opportunities to be “offended,” I keep interactions to a minimum.

Our justice system became Kafkaesque in the 90s.

This story broke late last week yet there was a national poll on Tuesday (I believe) that shows Cain has jumped to a 7 percentage point lead over Romney. While Cain is pointing the finger at Perry, I'm not positive his camp (or Romney's, for that matter) is responsible for the leak. I think the Dems are simply afraid of Cain's ability to win in 2012 and that, ultimately, is the source of the leak.

I remember a story of a board meeting at an unnamed large aircraft manufacturer in Seattle back in the 1980’s, several women were missing because they were all close to the end of term on their pregnancies. Someone said, “Must be something in the air.” Someone else said, “Yeah, their legs.”

Lots of laughter from the non-females in the room. Imagine how that would go today.

Imagine if Thomas Jefferson was running for president today. He’d be dragged through so much mud he would choke to death.

It is not clear what some people call ‘harrassment’ anyway

If my boss remarks on my hair or my shoes, is he barassing me....? NOT!

A feminist would say, yes. They have made the world a very ugly place.

I got a feeling Mr Cain has some new law suits coming his way.

He seems to level charges with no facts.
Curt Anderson is pissed.

True conservative candidates would back Cain up. I’m surprised Newt so far, is the only one. If Perry didn’t start this smear, he should say so and apologize anyway. Michelle probably won’t be afforded the opportunity. So all eyes are on what’s missing from Brylcream now for a response.

For lawyers, it’s like stagecoach robbing, only the getaway is much safer.
