[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1177099, member: 1246"] Perverts and harassers are acceptable if they’re Democrats. Via [URL="http://voiceofsandiego.org/2013/07/11/ex-legislator-i-warned-democratic-party-about-filner-two-years-ago/"]Voice Of San Diego: [/URL] [INDENT]The local Democratic Party has known for a long time about sexual harassment allegations against Bob Filner, a former Democratic assemblywoman said in a Thursday interview. “I blew the whistle on this two years ago to the Democratic Party leadership,” former Assemblywoman Lori Saldaña said. Saldaña said that in summer 2011 six prominent women in local politics, business and education told her that Filner had physically or verbally harassed them. Saldaña had been exploring what turned out to be an unsuccessful bid for Congress and the conversations came in the context of the 2012 elections. Saldaña said she contacted former party Chairman Jess Durfee with the allegations and Durfee was among a group of Democratic leaders who met with Filner to discuss them that summer. She said nothing happened. “As disgraceful as Bob’s behavior has been, it’s been tolerated by our Democratic Party leadership,” she said. [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
