    highly unlikely that these women would have a problem with that.
    I see.

    Let them have their 15 minutes of fame, just to be thrown out.

    I wonder if they really want to tell their story, of if they will get paid millions for it?

    they might have been wanting to tell their story for years.

    do you want to hear the story?

    Facts make statistics, statistics don't make facts.

    Depends on the corporate culture and how long you worked there. Last time I was laid off, I had a month severance for every year worked. If she got two for each year, and worked 6 years...

    We can guess all day long, and still not know the truth. I would imagine its likely she was given more than normal if she promised to go quietly.

    I frankly don't care. Thinks that can be conceived as sexual harassment are unreasonable at times. If you disagree with this, then I have to wonder if you have been neutered.

    Do you want to live in a society where men being men and women being women is considered wrong?

    why did they make her promise?

    Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain's staff called off a press conference in Alexandria, Va. Wednesday morning as he faces sexual harassment allegations. "Excuse me!" he reportedly said, quite loudly, when asked about the controversy. He later said to reporters, "Don't even bother asking me all these questions you're curious about." At least one photographer took a "hard blow to the face" as Cain personnel and hotel security pushed back against assembled photographers, according to the New York Times.

    The confidentiality agreements signed by the two women who accused Herman Cain of inappropriate behavior when he was head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s have drawn increased scrutiny.

    The mental gymnastics that you put your mind through to justify your support for the red team is mind numbing. I think it's pretty obvious Cain pulled out his BBC and rubbed it on the nape of these two women's neck.

    LOL, I think we can be certain that no matter the truth, it wasn't that.

    Why is it so hard to accept that all I am doing is pointing out other possibilities? Do I believe him guilty of sexual harassment. NO. But I acknowledge it's possible.

    Time and time again, every election, there are scandals that prove to be nothing. I would bet 5:1 odds this is nothing but political dirty tricks.

    Word was also out that is was a former employee of a past political campaign for Cain that now works for Perry that leaked this.

    So what? That would actually lend credence to the harassment story.

    During his Oct. 3 broadcast in Iowa, Deace mentioned that Cain made a comment to a woman who was there to report on the radio interview for another news agency.

    “Cain said, ‘Darling, do you mind doctoring my tea for me?’” Deace said.

    Deace told the Register last month that he believes Cain was talking about adding honey and lemon, but that it was an awkward moment.

    Your point?

    Is it sexual harassment because it was said to a woman?

    "dearly loved." People express warmth towards others in different ways. That is not a sexual statement.

    Did you know such remarks are not considered actionable sexual harassment unless you are told to stop?

    Unless someone tells Cain these words are not acceptable, there is nothing to about.

    Different people, different backgrounds, different phrases showing endearment, respect, etc.

    There's nothing of interest here.

    In today's times I don't even joke around women although I do hear women still make jokes and comments with sexual tones and I don't respond to those either.
