Mike Bloomberg did more than tell women a few unfunny jokes
[American Thinker] Now that Bernie Sanders and Mike Bloomberg look to be the last two standing in the Democrat primaries ‐ the communist and the plutocrat ‐ each side is spending overtime digging up dirt on the other. One of Bernie's supporters found some of the allegations a woman made in a lawsuit she filed in 1998 directly against Michael Bloomberg (as opposed to a lawsuit more generally against his company).

The lawsuit described a workplace environment in which Bloomberg generally degraded women; demanded that they have sex appeal to work with him; and engaged in repeated, and unwanted, sexual gestures and touching.

(Language warning!)

#1 "Annina: Monsieur Rick, what kind of a man is Captain Renault?"

"Rick: Oh, he's just like any other man, only more so."

#3 As long as he doesn't have an (R) next to his name they'll forgive and forget if he wins the primary. Ideals only go so far when confronted by power.

#5 Joe Biden stopped just short of claiming he invented penicillin. "A man has to know his limitations."

#6 Just add Clinton to the end of his name and all will be forgiven. He might even get a blow job from Nina Burleigh.

Yeah. How many people will get wise to that?

If they have any first hand knowledge/memory of 9/11, they'll remember Giuliani.

#10 What a vile little creep. Can you imagine your wife or daughter working for this repulsive troll?

Maybe we will finally get over our worship of these creepy, Little Big Man Oligarchs?

#11 I'm guessing this is Sekiko Sakai Garrison. She's easy on the eyes, but I really don't see these allegations anywhere else. Not a Bloomberg fan except relative to the other Dems. I suspect, however, that she kitchen-sinked it in her lawsuit. She threw everything at the wall and hoped something would stick. It worked - sort of - she got her pound of flesh via a confidential settlement and an NDA.

As it turns out, ever since she left Bloomberg LP, she's been a glorified temp. You can see her profile at LinkedIn. You don't know what you have until you've lost it. Bloomberg LP is probably the best gig most of these women will ever have. It's got a rep for being a great place to work, with good salaries and benefits. I don't know why her SJW impulses won out over the sensible part that would have pushed her to stick around, but somehow that's what happened.
