Michael, you continue to wish to trivialize sexual harassment, this time by saying Arnold's admitted groping of women

No John, once again you have distorted my post.

Let me paint as clear a picture as I know how...

1. Arnold did not admit to groping.
2. Arnold has no doubt been groped a few thousand times.
3. Some women no doubt would enjoy being groped by Arnold. It's part of his star persona and his muscle bound build.
4. No one has ever filed charges against Arnold for sexual harassment.
5. The LA Times hasn't identified one credible witness who claimed Arnold groped them.
6. Juanita Braudrick was a Democrat, a judge and had nothing to gain by going public with her very specific accusation that Bill Clinton raped her.
7. The LA Times and most of the mainstream press completely ignored her deeply disturbing story.
8. The LA Times and most of the mainstream press widely circulated and ran the story of Arnolds supposed groping.
9. The hypocricy from those on the left such as the LA Times and NOW is appalling and predictable.
10. The entire Arnold groping issue was poltically motivated.
11. The entire Juanita Broadrick rape charge was newsworthy. After all, Bill Clinton had perjured himself court and had to settle to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars because he sexually harassed a government worker in Arkansas.
12. If sexual harassment is such a serious issue in your mind, why was Clinton given a complete pass by liberals and the LA times?
13. Trivializing sexual harassment is exactly what the LA Times and you are doing in the case of Arnold Swartznegger. No one has filed a charge, unlike in the case of Bill Clinton, yet the mainstream press and leftists ran with it as if it was a major news story. These kind of anonymous charges (obviously poltically motivated), are how people become desensitized toward the serious nature of sexual harassment.
