Mayor McSilkytouch's Chief of Staff is Bogusly Claiming Attorney-Client Privilege To Avoid Turning Over Notes, It Is Alleged, About Sexual Harassment

And other amazements.

Turns out San Diego did provide an online sexual harassment lesson; Mayor McSquickfinger just didn't bother.

As you may already know, the city attorney Jerry Goldsmith has forbidden female members of the media from meeting alone with Filner. This is to avoid another harassment and another mulcting of the city's coffers.

Melissa Harris-Perry, last seen modeling feminine hygiene jewelry, embarrasses herself anew by asking if this policy, rather than Mayor Feel U Up, is discriminatory against women.

And how is the LA Times covering this? With their typical level of excellence.

Headline:

Bob Filner May Be Republicans' Best Friend

Now, in fairness, there is a much-smaller subhed:


Long starved of power, many San Diego liberals were willing to overlook Filner's reputation. That may turn out to be a colossal miscalculation.

The article does imply that Filner is a Democrat, chiefly on the second page (after the jump), but strangely, in an article about Republicans' taking advantage of the situation, they can never quite bite the bullet and explicitly identify Filner as a Democrat.

Kind of like the euphemism "the n-word." It's okay to allude to it, but incredibly rude to outright say it.

Until page 2, Filner is just the Republicans' best bud.

And strangely, in an article that touches ever-so-lightly on liberals' willingness to look the other way, they never quite get 'round to reporting the fact that Democratic assemblywoman Lori Saldana warned the party about this two years ago, and not only did they do nothing, but they threatened her into supporting Filner.

18 This actually ties in nicely with the last post about the male feminist. As long as you keep to the left side of the political spectrum, your sins will be covered up. Amazing how Filner, Clinton, Kennedy, Weiner, Dodd, Frank, and so many others are to be cheered by liberals, and their offenses against women (running from harassment to rape to murder) are merely collateral damage to be hidden by their allies in the press.

Not only do they not say Filner's a Democrat, they don't even say who he is. So your LIV would be justified in thinking Filner's a big GOP contributor like those evil Koch brothers.

I'm a little torn on this one.

A-Rod deserves the lifetime ban for trying to intentionally subvert the MLB investigations, but the Yankees also overpaid this asshole on his new contract despite knowing this was out there.


I think the perfect solution may be to let A-Hole come back from his "rehab assignment" in the minors, play one game, then get a lifetime ban, as that puts him out of baseball while also sticking the Yankees with paying off the remainder of A-Hole's contract.

94 As Democrat sex scandals go and their cover up and the press's dismissal of them, Filner's is small potatoes.

The only one the press ever went after was Gary Hart and Monkey Business because he was not the chosen one.


You can diddle underage male interns and get reelected if you are a Democrat. You can have a homosexual brothel run out of your house and the press won't blink and eye and you can go on to head a committee while sodomizing the officer of a corporation you have the responsibility to provide oversight to. You can smoke crack with crack whores on camera and be relected to your Mayorial position. You can tweet pics of your dick and then run and lead in the polls for Mayor of NYC. You can screw interns with a cigar, commit perjury and be considered to be a feminist hero. And lastly on this abbreviated list, you can drive your mistressoff a bridge into a watery grave and be lionized as a fighter for women's rights.

I should clarify...

If A-Hole plays one more game and then retires due to an injury, he gets to keep the money.

Retirement doesn't stop MLB from tossing him, though, as Pete Rose has shown.

The only one the press ever went after was Gary Hart and Monkey Business because he was not the chosen one.

Gary Hart was also enough of a dumbfuck that he dared them to catch him doing something and they did.

I'm not sure if they did so in hopes of clearing the field for Ted Kennedy, Mario Cuomo, or someone else, but don't dare them to catch you and then immediately go pork some bimbo on a yacht.

103 I think the perfect solution may be to let A-Hole come back from his "rehab assignment" in the minors, play one game, then get a lifetime ban, as that puts him out of baseball while also sticking the Yankees with paying off the remainder of A-Hole's contract.

A MLB suspension is always without pay. Up until it is meted out, however, the Yankees must pay A-Hole even though he's been on the DL all year.

106 Funniest thing about the PED Biogenesis scandal --- only MLB is stupid enough to pay the Biogensis dude for the names of players he gave PEDs to.

It's been reported that the full list of names has NBA, NFL, UFC, golfers, tennis pros, etc, on it.

But none of the commissioners of those sports are masochistic enough to call and ask for the names.

And they are all in South Florida.

David Stern could make one call tomorrow and find out if LeBron or Dwyane (retard spelling) Wade is on that list. Wade who has made an amazing injury comeback.

Wade will clearly be on that list and it is suspected that LeBron, Bosh, or some other members of the Heat could be as well.

From the WTF file:


Thanks to a federal program lined up by their unions, local workers
laid off during the current dip in employment at Boeing Commercial
Airplanes will enjoy a financial cushion that’s much, much plumper than
what the average unemployed state resident gets.



The U.S. Department of Labor has approved Boeing workers — union or
nonunion, production workers or engineers — laid off between April 2012
and June 2015 for a package of benefits that includes drawing
unemployment pay for up to 2½ years, rather than the regular six months.

... also means that if laid-off Boeing
workers need to travel, say to California, for a job interview, the
government will reimburse 90 percent of the costs.

If they relocate for a new job, the government will pay 90 percent of
their moving expenses and provide an additional lump-sum relocation
allowance of up to $1,250.

While unemployed, they’ll also get a tax credit for nearly
three-quarters of their health-care premiums. And they’re eligible for a
grant of up to $25,000 toward the cost of a degree.

And for those workers over 50, if they have to take a lower-paid job
after leaving Boeing, the government will provide up to $10,000 over two
years in supplementary pay to make up some of the difference.

157...I'd pay money to see Filner, Weiner, Spitzer, and a few other Dims reenact the video by the Bloodhound Gang.

Yep! ...That's the one.

And they hunt down women, blow-dart them, then drag them off.

I've said for years that Gary's major mistake was trying to deny the affair in the first place. If the man had simply held up one of her modeling photos, looked straight into the camera and said "Damn straight! She's a Vogue Model! You would have if you could TOO!" He'd have had every MALE and/or LESBIAN vote available as well as some LIV females from his own party anyway. I mean this was no Fugly Monica or Leathers IYKWIM.

Bloom County actually had one of the characters (Milo, I think) suggest that this was Hart's long-plan regarding the whole fiasco. Of course, the details ended with the revelation that Hart was really an alien and some night after his election to the Presidency, he and his fellow aliens would suck out everyones' brains.

100 comments later, and nobody has said "I'd hit it?"
Sorry, but you know know we were all thinking it. Just sayin'.

180 Personally I'm fine with PEDs. But it's weird how MLB are so determined to destroy themselves over this while all the other sports look the other way.

You think the NFL concussion lawsuits are a headache (yeah I said that on purpose), allowing sports franchises to allow PEDs would result in a future class action suit that blows the concussion suit out of the water.

181 Ace, could you change that'threatened' to extorted. To go all Wikilawyer: Exaction refers not only to extortion or the unlawful demanding and obtaining of something through force, but additionally, in its formal definition, means the infliction of something such as pain and suffering or making somebody endure something unpleasant.
Extortion is one of the predicates for a RICO prosecution.

182 Why do I think "meeting with men who might be Democrats" should be a part of the "Life Of Julia" under the heading, "Things The Government Can Protect You From"?

You know what they're trying to do? They're trying to imply that he's a Republican, and that Republicans approve of what he did.
The Press's big problem now is that a bunch of Democratic scandals are hitting the fan right now, and they have to figure out some way to blame the Republicans for it and imply that it really is the Republican's fault.

184 Dead thread, but I just wanted to raise a point re the discrimination claim by Melissa Hyphen-Hyphen.

I am not going to read HER rationale - I don't care what it is and it's probably stupid - but imho requiring female journalists to have chaperones DOES put the burden on the wrong people and potentially marginalize and embarrass them.

Filner is the one with the problem. Filner is the one who is out of control. HE SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY A MINDER AT ALL TIMES.

A woman journalist or whoever shouldn't have to arrange to have someone protect her. She shouldn't have to be the one who is "special." The women are not the problem. ONE PARTICULAR MAN IS.

I don't know if you'll see the difference, but there is a big difference. One way treats the women like children who need protecting. The other treats the ONE MAN WITH A PROBLEM like the problem that he is.

Yes, I feel strongly about this having gone through a really mishandled harassment case years back.
