    It has nothing to do with Bush. His family, including his wife and his son the former president, not to mention staff, servants and various hangers on, decided to do nothing to stop this repeated (we're up to five now) molestation of completely innocent woman over a period of years. Hell, all they had to do was station the negro chauffeur behind the wheelchair to grab his arm right before the money shot. But no, because of privilege and/or fear of embarrassment they couldn't even do that.

    Damn. I don't pay much attention to women's basketball, but how can you not be a fan of Breanna Stewart after reading that? I'm sickened by what she went through, but damn impressed by her.

    Too bad Rosie never had a platform she could have used to expose people like Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey.

    I denounce Rosie, and in this case, YF actually makes a good point. If she knew, why did she say nothing until now?

    I'm guessing that even if 'everybody knew' one doesn't risk getting sued if you don't have proof.

    That is a fair point, but I still see YF's point here. She knew, but as far as we know, did nothing to stop people from being hurt.

    In the case of Gian Gomeshi, women in the business told each other to be careful and tried to warn women new to the business. If you don't have legal proof what else can be done? (Not a smart ass comment, a genuine question).
