.. . and everyone else's definition of a disgusting wimp.
'Oregon State Sen. Jeff Kruse (R) repeatedly groped women ― sometimes while on the Senate floor or
in the governor’s office ― despite repeated warnings, according to an independent investigation.
The 51-page report, compiled by employment law attorney Dian Rubanoff and released Tuesday, found
Kruse subjected two female lawmakers and many other women to unwanted touching and “lingering”
hugs.
The 66-year-old Republican legislator engaged in a “longstanding pattern ... of unwelcome physical
contact” toward women in the workplace, including State Sens. Sara Gelser (D) and Elizabeth
Steiner Hayward (D).
“The evidence ... shows that he has engaged in a pattern of placing his hands on women in the
workplace below their waists, or touching his head to their heads, whereas the evidence indicates
that he does not do this with males in the workplace,” according to the report.
Gelser accused Kruse of once placing “both his hands on the front of her shoulders with the palm
of each hand resting on or near her breasts” while on the Senate floor in 2016, according to the
report. On another occasion, Gelser told Rubanoff that Kruse “wrapped his left arm around her
shoulder with his fingers extending down toward her breast, and placed his right hand on her thigh
with his fingers under the hem of her skirt.”
Members of the state legislature’s counsel and human resources department advised Kruse in 2016 to
stop hugging his female colleagues and “keep an an arms’ length distance from them,” according
the report. But Kruse’s inappropriate behavior only escalated.
'It was not lack of respect for her – just falling back into old patterns. When you have been
doing something for 67 years it’s not easy to change.'

It doesn't just apply to republicans. But a man has got to be crazy to sexually harass a woman,
especially now, but they shouldn't have in the past either. Women should be respected. And
sexually harassing women who work for you in a business setting? You have GOT to be crazy. And men
must be crazy. It takes a lot of nerve. And frankly, it's just so wrong. No class..
I am still shocked by the story about Steve Wynn. I thought he was smarter than that. I hope he is
smarter than that. We shall see.

I think there's a news report that a shell company set up by his lawyers paid one of his victims
$7.5 MILLION. She may have deserved a settlement that large but it's insane that Wynn has to pay
that much to cover up his piggish behavior. You can bet that after seeing that Stormy Daniels is
going to wish she had spanked someone who had more money.

This is blowing my mind. All the power, all the property, Steve Wynn controls. Just his NAME, just
saying his name is so big. Macao, Massachusetts, geez. What's going to become of the company?

I guess you've never heard of Harvey Weinstein. Stfu, Bill. This is Steve Mutherfucking Wynn.

Of course I have heard of Harvey Weinstein. I didn't say NO Democrats are evil. I said ALL
Republicans are.
All dogs have paws, but not every animal with a paw is a dog. See the difference?
Think about it...Republicans delight in abusing racial minorities, religious minorities, the poor,
homosexuals, immigrants, children, etc. Why would you be be surprised that an alarming number would
also abuse women?

You are wasting my time. Imagine this, Bill. Imagine a day when no one talks to you because they
know you are so boring. You need to strike a healthy balance between normalcy (whatever that is),
and obnoxious mode. Let's call it a "troll sweet spot", if you will. Think about it.

Correcting your faulty logic is not trolling. I have never said no Democrats are evil, which is what
you tried to imply I have said. You're the one trolling by misrepresenting my statements.

It'll do just fine. Steve was just about completely blind, he won't be missed. Remember when Steve
Jobs was kicked out of Apple? A CEO is just that and not much more.
