During Barack Obama’s tenure as the president of the Harvard Law Review in the late 1980s, at least two male student editors complained to colleagues and senior university officials about inappropriate behavior by Obama, ultimately leaving their positions at the journal, multiple sources confirm to THE KANSAS CITIAN.

The men complained of sexually suggestive behavior by Obama that made them angry and uncomfortable, the sources said, and they signed agreements with the university that gave them financial payouts to leave the journal. The agreements also included language that bars the men from talking about their departures.

In a series of comments over the past 10 days, Obama and his administration repeatedly declined to respond directly about whether he ever faced allegations of sexual harassment at the journal. They have also declined to address questions about specific reporting confirming that there were financial settlements in two cases in which men leveled complaints.

The KansasCitian needs to forward a copy of this story to Politico.

Trouble is - I read this as a straight story as it really is believable - but sure - still good as satire.

Couldn’t be true, else they’d be dead — like the gay guys in his church choir who were murdered just before Hussein announced he was running for office. So, yes... it’s satire.

I posted this earlier but it got pulled by the mods. Apparently they fail to see that this article is a parody on the extreme bias of the left when it comes to journalistic integrity when taking down conservatives, it is by no means factual.

“The sources — including the recollections of close associates and other documentation — describe episodes that left the men upset and offended.”

Since nothing will come of this, while Cain will continue to be hounded 24/7, all we can do is speculate as to the “episodes.”

I’ll start:
Following fellow students into the mens’ room, peering through the crack in the door, asking them if they need a hand.

Coming up behind other men in class, rubbing their buttocks, then laughing and saying, “I’m just messin’ with you! If you didn’t like it, I mean.”

Leaving notes on other male students desks, “For free `tutoring’ call 555-1234. Ask for Barry/Barack.”

Standing outside the mens’ room and smacking his lips as students leave.

Pretending to study in the mens’ room, asking all if he can see their briefs.

Following men home after classes and asking, “If you want a shoulder rub or whatever—hey, this stress gets to all of us.”

Not satire. An object lesson for illustrating what can be done to anyone with “anonymous sources” and innuendo.
