he wasn't found to have harassed jones. she had an affair with him, notwithstanding that the arkansas mafia got her to file suit on the last day before the statute of limitations ran.
his and her business. i couldn't care less.
anita hill told the truth about the ethically challenged embarrassment to the court, clarence thomas.
i can blame kenny starr for his little witchhunt that he thought would get him a supreme court appointment... and the pretend fiscal conservatives who spend 70 million on garbage but only spent 7 million investigating 9/11.
so there ya go.
now this one lying about sexually harassing women and them getting paid... THAT should trouble you.
and for the record, there are a lot of reasons to settle a case that have nothing to do with the allegations being true. you all impeached a popular sitting president for what cain just did, though.
now THAT i find amusing.
Actually, he settled with Jones. Paid her $850,000 at the end of the day, gave up his law license. So if you are going to make the argument that Cain is guilty of something because the NRA settled for five figures, Clinton settled for close to a million after spending millions on legal fees. If he had the out of "Hey, we wuz having an affair", he should have gone with that.
For Anita Hill, her entire credibility collapses on one point. She asked to be transferred with Thomas from Dept. of Ed to EEOC. If he was harrassing her, she'd have been happy to see him leave. She went with him. That means nothing else she says is credible at that point.
Now, frankly, I've been critical of Starr and all IC's. It's a bad law. It essentially gives a prosecutor an unlimited budget to investigate, but they are practically required to indict someone for something.
So, um, what more were we supposed to investigate on 9/11. We know who did it, whe know how they did it, and we've spent a trillion dollars killing them for the crime.
Now, for Herman Cain- I think that Herman Cain is unfit to be president for reasons that have little to do with this nonsense, but I'm not willing to condemn him until we actually know what the details are.
It appears she got three months severance. That's "Just go away" money, not "we are sooo sorry for your pain" money. Seriously, I got three months severance from my last job, and the only thing at dispute there was that there wasn't really any work for me to do at that point. Could have sued them for age and medical discrimination, but I didn't because I figured it wasn't worth it.
