Back in the good ol' days, you could give your secretary a hearty slap on the ass (before firing her for getting too old or putting on a couple of pounds), complain to your colleagues about those uppity n-words that moved in next door, and polish off a fifth of Jack before lunch.
This is my point. The views of Republicans and Democrats are asymmetrical, so the responsibility is going to be asymmetrical.
I don't know what you're talking about, but I have to assume it was something the Clintons did.
No, this is even older - this is something one of the Kennedys did back in the... I want to say seventies? Even earlier? It is an old chestnut that gets brought up every now and then.

It is terrible. The writing is poor, it tries to link two unrelated events and is intentionally misleading. Which is a shame, because I would have loved a good article about the topic.

In one sense, there isn’t anything especially notable about this story when compared to the others, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say as a guy, I can identify more easily with the experiences of guys.
I like him and am glad his life is back on track. The story with the horse was cool.
What is perhaps remarkable is that for a guy, the ass-grab experience is more shocking and unusual. If every woman who had her ass grabbed went into a spiral, well, that'd be a lot of spiraling.
A St. Louis grand jury has indicted Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens on a felony invasion of privacy charge for allegedly taking a compromising photo of a woman with whom he had an affair in 2015, the city circuit attorney’s office said Thursday.
The indictment states that on March 21, 2015, Greitens photographed a woman identified only by her initials “in a state of full or partial nudity” without her knowledge or consent. The indictment said Greitens “transmitted the image contained in the photograph in a manner that allowed access to that image via a computer.”
The penalty for first-degree invasion of privacy in Missouri is up to four years in prison.
Greitens was taken into custody in St. Louis and released on his own recognizance, said Susan Ryan, a spokeswoman for Gardner.
At least five Republican legislators and several Democrats called for Greitens to step down after he admitted to the affair. He has said he will not resign.
I get what you’re saying, but to what extent does the photo embarrass her beyond it being proof she was involved in a sexual encounter she’s admitted to participating in? Her response to the photo can be “I must have stuttered when I said ‘I ****ed the governor’ the first time”.
Presumably the Governor would have released the photo through a cut-out, but it still seems a little wacky to run a “pretend it never happened” gambit by releasing evidence of it happening, even if he’s not in the picture.

Attorneys for Andrea Mackris, a former Fox News producer who filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against O’Reilly in 2004, argued the settlement she reached with O’Reilly required her to “lie — even in legal proceedings or under oath – if any evidence becomes public, by calling evidence ‘counterfeit’ or ‘forgeries.'”
Generally the 1st Amendment is taken to mean that compelled speech is illegal. That is what those canaries in privacy statements (where a company says "we have not yet been compelled to give out customer personal information without a warrant", so everyone can see when the statement disappears) come from.

The woman and Greitens had several sexual encounters over the next few months in 2015, she testified. Some were consensual. Others were not.
On at least three occasions he hit her.
The explosive allegations were among the findings of the bipartisan investigative committee of the Missouri House that has been looking into allegations of wrongdoing against the Republican governor.
The committee – five Republicans and two Democrats – concluded that the woman's testimony is credible.
The committee also interviewed two of the woman’s friends who say she told them a similar story at the time, as well as the woman’s ex-husband.
He said the attacks against him are part of a "political witch hunt."
Apparently, America’s Dad went into a loud, obscenity-filled tirade against the judge, when the verdict was read.
Not the judge. The prosector. Apparently the latter wanted an 80 year old nearly blind man's bail revoked because of his wealth and private plane. Cosby let him know in no uncertain terms that he doesn't have a private plane. And the judge refused to revoke his bail.
It's not that he isn't capable of fleeing. It's that nothing in his behavior has given any indication that he is an actual flight risk. That's why the judge refused to revoke Cosby's bail.
