>>And if you'd only been following for the past few weeks: I've said repeatedly that I was never a supporter of Anita Hill. Her "case" was nonsense. Don't believe it boys (not that I would accuse any of you of that leap of logic). She never said any such thing, at least in the beginning. Early on La Shell said Thomas-Hill was "different" or something akin that. Nice to see some capacity for reform though.

Quick question, Janice: Do you hate women? How about this one: Does there exist a public case of sexual harassment/assualt in which you actually believed the claims of the woman? It's perverse to me that you call yourself a feminist- laughable actually. Do you think Bill Clinton was exercising equal rights when he groped Willey? I guess that argument could be made since he eagerly encouraged equal groping during the interlude. It doesn't matter. The point is that this man- the most powerful man in the free world, used his power in a grotesquely inappropriate way. I have to admit here that until very recently, I had been a Clinton supporter and in fact determined that these charges were better left solved by the first lady and her husband. Last night's interview changed all of that. Let me ask you this: What possible motivation could Willey possibly have to lie about this? She obviously didn't want to disclose the incident and only did so after forced by a federal judge. You can thank Ms. Tripp for that (is she a feminist too?). The incident would be over if she had lied and said it didn't happen-- unless of course she was prosecuted for perjury and in the current atmosphere, I suspect that was at least a minor concern. I simply don't understand your reasoning at all. Unless of course I take into account that you haven't seen the interview and therefore really don't know what you're talking about.
