Rep. Douglas Bruce was instructed Wednesday to stay away from a woman working at the state Capitol who lodged a sexual harassment complaint against him.
Speaker Andrew Romanoff, D-Denver, handed Bruce a letter on the House floor. Bruce read it, then he and Romanoff briefly met in the speaker's office.

Poor Bruce. He speaks the truth and the worms will continue to dig out as much trouble as possible.
The caveman element will not win the battle.
Sexual Harassment has gotten completely out of control. A woman can file sexual harassment if a man/woman so much as ‘looks’ in a way she doesn’t like. I don’t mean the slack-jawed stare; it can be a glance that doesn’t meet her approval, a greeting that she doesn’t want to hear (Yes, as in “Good Morning”), a compliment (”You look nice today”) or any other thing that can somehow be deemed to be ‘offensive’ to her.
In short, this is nothing less than a power play. Women can arbitrarily make the rules. The rules are selectively enforced, depending upon who the other person is. At worst, this becomes business extortion. Getting a bad review, showing up late? Well, just make the accusation. Get a bad review? Well, then obviously that must be because of sexual harassment, right?
Bruce rocks the boat and the liberals have been after him for years. Once, they trashed some abandoned apartments he owned and he was fined. I’d bet this is a set-up.
