Congress & staffers must attend harassment seminars, no ifs ands or butts
Michelle Malkin.con ^ | Doug.

Posted on 11/30/2017 6:11:31 PM PST by Hojczyk

Prediction: Things will go downhill fast after the seminar instructor begins by saying “Ok, everybody grab a seat!”

From The Hill:

The House on Wednesday voted to require annual sexual harassment awareness training for all members and staff amid a push to reform the culture on Capitol Hill.

A resolution authored by Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-Va.) passed easily by voice vote, though its passage will not be the hard part for lawmakers seeking to reform the policies to protect Capitol Hill employees from sexual harassment.

Comstock’s measure requires members and staff to undergo anti-harassment and anti-discrimination training during each session of Congress. Interns and fellows would also have to take the training.

Members and staff will have to complete the training no later than 180 days after the second session of the current Congress begins in January.

Will this be Conyers and Franken’s excuse for not resigning? “It’s not fair if we have to quit even before being formally told what we did isn’t allowed!”

The first seminar got underway today:

Somewhere in the halls of Congress, this conversation is taking place: Congressman’s chief of staff: You have to attend harassment training tomorrow.

Congressman: Why? I’m already really good at it.

Saw this today and thought what a frigen joke.
These are things decent people are taught growing up not things you teach adult legislators and there staff.

Symbolism over Substance once again.

Dems think this will fix their immorality

The “how to be nice and pay for her abortion after assaulting her” Obama class, because Obama would not punish his daughter with a child after giving her pleasure of course...

Bunch of kabuki CYA theater right after going after Moore, figuring their own electability protocols and loopholes

Do you think those who complete this class will have learned that “harass” is one word?

“amid a push to reform the culture on Capitol Hill.”

Nothing short of short ropes and tall lamp posts will be able to do this.

What a crock. Define “sexual harrassment”. Is that where the woman is the final word?

These training classes are required every two years for managers at companies located in California.

All for show. Congress required private business to undergo sexual harassment training decades ago. Typical. Congress doesn’t have to abide by the laws they pass for the people. Obamacare comes to mind.

Ever since our voyage of love began
Your touch has thrilled me like the rush of the wind
And your arms have held me safe from a rolling sea
There's always been a quiet place to harbor you and me

Our love is like a ship on the ocean
We've been sailing with a cargo full of love and devotion
So I'd like to know where, you got the notion
Said I'd like to know where, you got the notion

, don't rock the boat baby
(Rock the boat), don't tip the boat over
(Rock the boat), don't rock the boat baby
(Rock the boat)

It’s not polite to make vulgar or off-color (sexually insinuating) comments in the presence of women or for a man to get fresh with a woman who is not his wife. If the elite folks can’t understand that, there’s no hope for them. Feminist seminars are useless and only cause more trouble. Feminists are man haters.

Imagine a bunch of grown men, most fathers and grandfathers, having to learn how to behave as if they are a bunch of teenagers. If they don’t know how to act by now, they need to find another job. This stupid training is just ridiculous.

The resistance has pretty much fizzled out. Haven’t heard from the BLM or ANTIFA thugs in quite a while. The Russian narrative is dead. This BS has sucked all of the oxygen out of opposition’s air. The rats, MSM and hollywierd are all too busy covering their own a$$es to get in the way of Trumpism’s onward march. Granted the deep state stooge Sessions will allow a legion of felons to skate, but things are trending our way.
