Nancy Pelosi's catastrophically bad answer on John Conyers

http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/27/politics/nancy-pelosi-john-conyers/index.html

Later in the same interview, Pelosi returns to the idea that the details of Conyers' accusers are vague.
"Do you believe John Conyers' accusers?" Todd asked.

"I don't know who they are," Pelosi replied. "Do you? They have not really come forward."

Well then.

Pelosi's answer overlooks a series of facts that we do know. We know:

  • In 2015, Conyers' office settled a wrongful dismissal claim with a former employee who said she was let go because she rebuffed the congressman's sexual advances. (Conyers has said he admitted no wrongdoing in the settlement and agreed to it solely to avoid a nasty fight.)
  • Four other former female Conyers' staffers signed affidavits in that case alleging that they, too, had been the victims of sexual harassment by the congressman.
  • Melanie Sloan, a former Conyers staffer, said that he verbally abused and harassed her. Although Sloan herself said she did not feel as though Conyers sexually harassed her, she did remember an episode in which the Michigan Democrat called her into his office while wearing only underwear.
So, not only do we know the number of Conyers' accusers -- at least five -- we also know one of their names. Pelosi is dead wrong on both fronts.

LOL.... And the left just loves her.....
