    It was only a matter of time

    Source: Kansas Dem Andrea Ramsey, accused of sexual harassment, will drop out of US House race


    Andrea Ramsey, a Democratic candidate for Congress, will drop out of the race after the Kansas City Star asked her about accusations in a 2005 lawsuit that she sexually harassed and retaliated against a male subordinate who said he had rejected her advances.

    Multiple sources with knowledge of the case told The Star that the man reached a settlement with LabOne, the company where Ramsey was executive vice president of human resources. Court documents show that the man, Gary Funkhouser, and LabOne agreed to dismiss the case permanently after mediation in 2006.

    Ramsey, a 56-year-old retired business executive from Leawood, was one of the Democratic candidates vying to challenge Republican Rep. Kevin Yoder in 2018 in Kansas’ 3rd District.

    She was running with the endorsement of Emily’s List, a liberal women’s group that has raised more than a half-million dollars to help female candidates who support abortion rights.

    Matter of time for what? I'm a bit confused what you're referring to.

      That a woman would be accused, perhaps?

            Weinstein, Spacey, etc. should tell everyone they are women! Then their actions would be lauded as fresh and breaking new barriers in LGBTQRSTUV society!

                Several years ago, back when it was still LGBT without the alphabet soup addition, a friend of mine tried to create a pronounceable acronym rearranging it to GBLT and pronounced it "gibblet"

                      You don't think LGBT are good things either.
                      Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom
