“Like others have said, how long can this continue?”

Like someone else said, as long as it takes to get every last one of those who behave this way. I am looking forward to any number of other Members of Congress. We all just need to hope that this kind of behavior will fall more heavily on the RATs, because I’d hate to see the purge cause the GOP to loose either house.

Judas effing Priest, it’s all over. How come I can, as a 23 year old 100 pound pretty feminine conservative blond lawyer, join the Army 30 years ago, be the only female lawyer on post and not get harassed? How can I be a lawyer around men all the time and not get harassed? Are these women daft? Are they taught to “be nice”? What is going on?

You just know the Left is sacrificing all their honchos as a prelude to attempting to impeach Trump for sexual harassment.

Will they ever learn they can't beat Trump?

I don't think this one even made the news

It was covered everywhere including Free Republic

Thanks, I’ve lost track of all of these stories.

If the public succeeds in opening up the cases covered up by Congress, all Hell will break loose.

Because there weren’t that many Leftists in the Army 30 years ago.

The problem isn’t men, it’s Leftist men. I’ve seen a few columns about this. Between the emotion-driven impulsiveness of Leftism in general, and the likelihood that many men “became” leftist because they discovered that portraying themselves as “champions of womens’ rights” got them a lot of liberal tail, it’s no wonder that liberal women think that all men are perverts/potential rapists. Most of the men they surround themselves with really are perverts and potential rapists.

You, on the other hand, were surrounded mostly by conservative men, with many from the South. Chivalry and proper manners were a significant part of their upbringing, so harassment was unlikely (though not unheard-of; c.f. the Tailhook scandal).

Good question—it is really about meta-communication, or body language, or other subtle cues that we give off in our environment.

I know a beautiful super-sharp woman from Texas who became a lawyer and moved to the Northeast. She became very bitter after a series of harassment incidents.

The problem was that her meta-language was “I am hot, do you want a piece of this?” and she just couldn’t help herself, that was just her normal “way”.

If she had some of that NYC in-your-face hostility when needed she could have stopped the problems quickly.

By this time in November 2018, we could have 34 Roy Moore clones in the Senate.

I have heard of plenty of rough conduct on the part of men military or not. I don’t get it.

She probably had that “be nice” bs built in. Never heard of ignoring an idiot.

Winning. Not tired yet.

All of NPR needs to “depart”; not just an editor.

One of my male buddies explained to me it is not a matter of attraction, it is power and control.

No problem.

Ain’t that the truth of it, it’s difficult even to keep up with them now.

The Left showing its true colors: smears, purges, banishments, ersatz public executions. My guess is they will move on to conservatives, including the President, with an even greater ferocity.

We’ll have to stand up to them, drive them back.

We only hear about sexual assaults against men only after we find out that they have been murdered. Homos and lesbos are all mentally unstable and kill their victims.
