[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I don't blame him a bit.  All it takes is an allegation.  
He didn't refuse her access.  He told her that a male colleague would need to be present.  Nothing at all wrong with that.

In this #MeToo era, one just cannot be too careful.  Good for him.  [/quote]

This is patently untrue.

What, precisely, is untrue?[/quote]

It's untrue that Trump's presidency was derailed by one allegation.  It's untrue that Kavanaugh's career was derailed by one allegation.  The politicians who've had their careers derailed by allegations are the ones with pictures, videos, and texts demonstrating the truth behind multiple allegations.  And sometimes even that doesn't do anything.

Sorrynotsorry, women aren't going to leave public life because men might made uncomfortable.

No one’s asking women to “leave public life,” dolt.  Nice hyperbole.[/quote]

What exactly do you think it means to say that women are so untrustworthy that a reporter can't interview a man running to be governor without a chaperone tagging along to ensure she doesn't falsely accuse him of rape? Do you think that society has room for women to be, say, elected officials? Lawyers? Doctors? Reporters? How do you think that works, exactly? [/quote]

You do realize this is ONE man's policy, right?  And while I agree with and support his decision, it doesn't mean our society has somehow adopted this rule.  You need to calm down.   :roll: [/quote]
