At a seminar on sexual harassment in the workplace

[rocktivity]

a scenario was presented about someone massaging a co-worker's shoulders. It inspired me to point out that George Bush had done it. While everyone chuckled at the memory, the moderator, who was clearly unfamiliar with the incident, quickly mumbled, "We don't talk about politics here." I said, "That's not the point." Afterwards, I e-mailed her a pic and wrote, "It's a shame that this is probably 'too political' to be used as an example, because it shouldn't matter whether you're the president or a company or the president of a country."

2. The funny thing is, I stood up for George when I first heard about it

I thought that the media was exaggerating the story--he probably just placed his hands on her shoulders to bend over and say something into her ear, or maybe wanted to look at something on the desk in front of her. Not even HE is idiotic enough to have given her a massage! But then I saw the video and pictures...

3. remember when people said becuase of the Bill/Monica scandal

kids will think it's okay to participate in random sex acts..(like he invented it) LOL....why is it no uproar was created with his overt harrasment of this woman....yeah, I know a massage is much different that a BJ but lines and personal space were crossed.
