New Woman Accusing Herman Cain Of Sexual Harassment Hires Gloria Allred

It wasn't that long ago. It was around 1999... long after sexual standards in the workplace were required to be in compliance with federal regs. You should have seen the misogynistic workplace zoo that existed in the 1970's and early 1980's. That was bad.
well yeah... it was pretty bad.( you'd know better than I, as I didn't work around any women)
the 70's was a transitional phase from women being at home making sammiches to asserting themselves as equals in the workplace.

I did. Yes it was worse back then.
Here is a question, if Cain was not running for Office, would G Alfred have come forward as she has now? Since regs were in place 1999, by not filing a complaint till now makes we wonder of the true motivation. If Cain is guilty, he needs to face the consiquences, if he is not then Alfred needs to face the consiquences of ruining a persons image.

Gloria Alread is a lawyer. She isn't ruining anything. She is simply representing a client who, by hopping the train after it left the station, has little personal credibility. The other three that were on record 12 years ago with their complaints have more credibility, and Cain managed to ruin what was left of his reputation by repeatedly lying, stammering, "forgetting" and just showing himself to be a prevaricating cad. 'Nuff said.
 
Maybe the NRA will release the details, and then we can all see what the basis for the settlements was. Until then, is it fair to judge Cain guilty?

Yes, because he has a documented history of being a creep. Now he's proved himself to be a liar and a creep. As I've said, if he had solid gold credentials, decades of working in governmental service and an impressive list of accomplishments, I'd vote for the creep with credentials. But he doesn't. An unqualified creep and proven liar is not worthy of the office. Period.
 
Hiring a known man-hating lawyer is proof of wrongdoing. :roll:

Gloria Allred is to sexual harassment cases as Al Sharpton is to race riots and vultures are to dead meat

Do you believe Cain was telling the truth initially when he said he was unaware of any financial settlement of sexual harassment claims against him?

That would imply that others made a settlement (often perceived as a guilty party making the charge(s) go away) about him without his approval or knowledge. That would have been like Democrats making a settlement deal with Paula Jones and never informing Clinton.

not exactly. In many cases where an employing business is the actual defendant (for example, the postal service, if an employee is harassed by a supervisor, the defendant is Patrick Donahoe, the Postmaster General). at the administrative level, agency counsel could easily agree to a deal without informing or getting the consent of the supervisor who is accused of the misdeed. Once it gets to court, same thing is true
 
Yes your right Gloria Allred is the 4th accusers lawyer so they all must be lieing...LMAO...

If the Post Office doesn't inform or call the supervisor on the carpet about paying settlements due to his harassment that would explain more how they are approaching bankruptcy.
 
Tessa, I said I would like to know the details. Since I don't, I don't know if they are similar of not. If they end up getting released and are very similar, I will conclude he is guilty. If they are not similar, I will have to wonder about the validity of the accusations.

Things like running your uninvited hand up a woman's skirt, trying to pull her head to your crotch and adding "you do want a job, don't you" is light-years from masturbating a willing female with a cigar and getting oral sex from a willing partner. Both show a considerable lack of good judgement, but only Cain's alleged actions show a considerable lack of respect for women.

Have any of Cain's male subordinates spoken about abuse of power? I'm trying to decide if he is just a general control freak or if he only demeans women.

We're not talking about just any "supervisor," but the president, which was Cain's title at the time with the National Restaurant Association. You may be right that it "can be" done, but it's reasonable to assume the top level person in the company knows what deals are being made about him. If he truly was left in the dark, that doesn't bode well for how he would run the nation as it implies legal settlements can be made about him as president of the United States without his approval or knowledge.

You know how liberals attack the source when they don't like the message....

So the woman that's saying Cain shoved her head into his crotch and tried to grope her...it was somebody else and she just says it was Cain because he was in charge?

Seriously, the first two I was willing to write off. Even with the settlement, companies settle things all the time just to avoid court. Now we're up to #4, and we have specific allegations this time. How many before you start to see a pattern?
 
A new woman alleging sexual harassment by presidential hopeful Herman Cain will break her silence at a news conference with her powerhouse attorney Gloria Allred Monday afternoon in New York City, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
The embattled GOP nominee has admitted that several women who worked at the National Restaurant Association during his tenure as president of the organization received settlements. Politico has reported that the settlements were given because of sexual harassment allegations.


Herman turning out to be a real Ho :lamo:lamo:lamo

So Hannity was right, it was the left media who is doing this? :)

cain has sufficiently ruined himself with his sorry excuse for a life, so it's not like it could get any worse for him.
 
That's all we're ever going to have unless it goes to civil court. Surely the statute of limitations has passed on any criminal charges of harrassment. As for the women bringing civil suits, I don't see that happening. By waiting, they've lost all credibility. Maybe Cain will, but, on the other hand, he just wants it all to go away. Unfortunately, things like this don't have to be proven. And this isn't going away. Cain's through. His ability to raise funds is out the window. How many donors are going to cast their lot with this guy? Nobody smart.
I think you need to ease up there.
 
Yes your right Gloria Allred is the 4th accusers lawyer so they all must be lieing...LMAO...
Frankly I don't think Allred's presence really helps the accuser. It sure gives Gloria a lot of face time.

I'd be curious to find out how this woman and Allred got together.

The woman's past is already being dragged through the mud. People that know her are calling her a gold digger. She evidently is not too good at keeping jobs or paying bills.

Wonder if Carville will revive his old "dragging a hundred dollar bill through a trailer park" theme ???
