Looks like the new accuser, Karen Kraushaar, just like Bialek, is one of those women that likes to work the system for cash. Right after she falsely accused Cain, she did the very same thing at her next job, demanding to work from home and crying sexual harassment when denied over an email that was circulating. The joke was cute, actually comparing men & women to computers. It was totally innocent, but she found it offensive. She even used the same lawyer! Piece a work, these women. Here's the joke she found so offensive: The complaint also cited as objectionable an email that a manager had circulated comparing computers to women and men, a former supervisor said. The complaint claimed that the email, based on humor widely circulated on the Internet, was sexually explicit, according to the supervisor, who did not have a copy of the email. The joke circulated online lists reasons men and women were like computers, including that men were like computers because "in order to get their attention, you have to turn them on." Women were like computers because "even your smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for later retrieval." Witchy Poo just saw no humor in that whatsoever. AP Exclusive: Accuser filed complaint in next job WASHINGTON (AP) A woman who settled a sexual harassment complaint against GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain in 1999 complained three years later at her next job about unfair treatment, saying she should be allowed to work from home after a serious car accident and accusing a manager of circulating a sexually charged email, The Associated Press has learned. Karen Kraushaar, 55, filed the complaint while working as a spokeswoman at the Immigration and Naturalization Service in the Justice Department in late 2002 or early 2003, with the assistance of her lawyer, Joel Bennett, who also handled her earlier sexual harassment complaint against Cain in 1999. Three former supervisors familiar with Kraushaar's complaint, which did not include a claim of sexual harassment, described it for the AP under condition of anonymity because the matter was handled internally by the agency and was not public. To settle the complaint at the immigration service, Kraushaar initially demanded thousands of dollars in payment, a reinstatement of leave she used after the accident earlier in 2002, promotion on the federal pay scale and a one-year fellowship to Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, according to a former supervisor familiar with the complaint. The promotion itself would have increased her annual salary between $12,000 and $16,000, according to salary tables in 2002 from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Kraushaar told the AP she considered her employment complaint "relatively minor" and she later dropped it. "The concern was that there may have been discrimination on the job and that I was being treated unfairly," Kraushaar said.
Leftists have released their s**t laden trebuchet...in desperate hopes some of it sticks to the wall.
If you drag a cash settlement through a white collar office.........you never know what you'll find. _
http://gawker.com/Karen-Kraushaar/ Complaining of discomfort after a serious accident that resulted in aggravating her spinal scoliosis? What a baby. Suck it up.
I think sexually explicit emails are often circulated in many offices. A complaint that it was offensive is not the same as filing a charge of sexual harassment. There's also no guesswork with email. They knew who sent it. It was probably just a matter of whether people were offended by the content or not. The main claim from the AP story revolved around physical injuries.
Nope. In that link I posted earlier, it says she has been living with spinal scoliosis ever since she was 21 years old. I guess that car accident messed her back up further.
Yep! And when they looked at it and denied her request, and filed a complaint, and included a complaint about the "sexually charged" email in it. She must have figured, hey, it worked last time! Even hired the same sleazy lawyer. Sounds like a lovely woman.
It seems as if "sexual harassment" is always in the eye of the beholder, or "complainer" as in this case! Also be aware as soon as Herman Cain announced he wanted to replace "welfare" with "workfare", the Black political establishment in America and the liberal press went after him! Seems as if some people in the press were keeping their power dry and waiting for the correct moment to arise! __________________
Why should the company she worked for be obligated to let her work at home because she was in a car accident that they had nothing to do with??? Most people would just end up on disability. Of course she wouldn't have made as much money that way. And if she was so offended by the email, all she had to do is tell her manager she didn't appreciate them. THEN if he kept it up, she had right to complain. She manipulated everyone and got what she wanted.
LOLOL.. how pathetic.. she asked for more time to recover and work from home after an auto accident. How desperate are you clowns?
I'm not sure why. But because she asked for accommodation because of her spinal condition and complained about an explicit email, she is certainly a horrible character who cannot be trusted.
WHAT do you mean??? Sorry - made absolutely no sense. The woman DEMANDED thousands of dollars because her employer wouldn't give her special treatment to work from home. The email hadn't even been brought up yet.....THEN when they didn't agree with her she brought up the email...as a THREAT! If that isn't manipulation and greed then i don't know what is....
A request that was found unwarranted. So she called up her sleazy lawyer and then she added the email joke to the complaint. She figured she'd show them! They have no idea who their mess'n with! I do to them what I did to my last employer, he he. chaching!
so now 2 women have come forward. 1 is financially irresponsible, 1 works for the Obama administration and both are habitual sexual harassment claim filers. Wow, seems like the case against Cain is growing weaker by the day. I hope the other two decide to come public. I am curious to see what their histories are
