“Taking off your clothes is not consenting to sex. Lots of men like to think so, however.”

There’s no hint in the article that she did not consent. Just be honest. If it was not consensual, there where is the evidence - from the woman’s own words - that it was an assault?

There is none - not in any of the versions of this story that I have seen so far and that has to be three versions already this morning. Even the fainting doesn’t tell us anything about it not being consensual.

It is amazing to me how in the age of “women’s liberation” we suddenly treat women as if they are not consenting adults when their own words show they are. She never once - in any of the published versions of this story - says ANYTHING about physical force, rape, assault, being held against her will or anything even approaching that. The simple fact is - if all we have is what has been published- she willingly had sex with Lauer and then woke up feeling like she had been used because he left her on the floor like discarded trash. She might have passed out from low blood sugar for all we know. Or she might simply be like this woman: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-4241544/The-wife-FAINTS-sex.html

I despise Lauer, but this story is just a little too difficult to believe.

It sounds to me like an office party in which the woman had too much to drink and Lauer took advantage of her.

I agree except for your editorializing, i.e. ‘willingly’

Yeh pretty much me too. Most guys don’t have the nerve to mess with me but its happened. My response is always short and sharp.

That story is sickening and I’m sure Lauer is a first class d$#k but her actions sound strange.

....She said he locked the door from a button at his desk and he asked her to unbutton her blouse. She said she complied and claims he got up from his desk, approached her from behind, bent her over his desk and had sex....


Sounds like she complied with the unbuttoning of her shirt AND the bending over his desk.

Her first mistake was unbuttoning her shirt. That’s when you call your co-worker(s), or SECURITY, and demand they come rescue you from that devil’s den.

Maybe, for whatever reason, she had a camcorder/video going in her/the room. Maybe she suspected he was a perv and had her phone videoing just in case?

That’s confusing. You can say whatever you wish to yourself. Claiming to yourself you are being forced doesn’t change your expressed actions. Now if instead of saying it to yourself you say it to the other person then you may have a case to make that it is not cnsensual sex.

Are you saying that Laurers power position made this rape regardless of the expressed statements and actions of the other person?

She was not an intern at the time of her death. The fact that some so-called journalists still say that on TV shows how ill-informed they are. Maybe they say that so it can be said that any questions about how she died have been debunked.

You have no proof that that is the case.

Same here. The NBC nurse or whoever it was the assistant took her to?

of course inappropriate. Missing the sexual assault description. Did she say no. Did she physically resist. Did she willingly submit?

I never understood the part about her being an intern and being 28 years old.

Daddy wants his precious pumpkin to have a job here in the Swamp. He is influential and suggests to the swampcritter whose election he supported [Daddy could work on K-street or could own a stable of K-street folks, for instance], that he might like to provide an office telephone and job title for his precious little girl who never learned how to grow up and so something useful.

She is likely cute and bubbly and has a wardrobe the cost of which all out of proportion to any salary anyone on a public salary could earn at any level from President on down.

They occupy the executive suites of most government agencies, and house and senate staffs. And these "highly placed government officials" help ensure the flow of information to the public by spilling their guts at various swamp-watering holes

Mona Charen was on EWTN Nightly News last night and said the democrats brought this on themselves starting in the 60s with the “free love” movement and trying to destroy the family. Now it’s coming back to bite them in the butt. She went on to say something I hadn’t heard before, She said the reason Roger Ailes was fired from Fox News is because
Gretchen Carlson had an iPhone when she went into his office. He started putting the hit on her and she let him talk and talk, with every bit of it being recorded by her cell phone.
