[Leaning Right]

Another Democrat who cannot control himself.

A breast shaped squeeze ball kept on his desk?
Sounds like that song “Squezze Box” by Roger Daltry & The Who.

[Lurker]

“and even the breast-shaped stress squeeze-ball he has been known to keep on his desk.”

That’ll get you fired anywhere in the corporate world.

“…the breast-shaped squeeze ball” on his desk was a pretty good indicator to keep the office door open!

[a fool in paradise]

Shelia Jackson Lee engages in demeaning behavior.

Her staff rank her as the worst congress critter to have to work for.

PS LBJ demeaned his secret service detail by deliberately pering in their shoes and making them watch over him while he was repeatedly in the nude.

[Adder]

Really? They felt uneasy?

What a bunch of stupidity.

This is nothing more than a power play to oust any man for women to take over.

Its disgusting. Fake outrage always is...

[Sacajaweau]

On the other hand....I had three girls in the 20s working for me. There was a handsome client. Once, after he left, I told XXXXXX to wipe the drool up off the floor.

Remember an old saying.....he chases her until she catches him.

Stephen Bittel was a superdelegate to the 2016 Democratic National Convention from Florida supporting Hillary Clinton. May have thought to be trying for the Florida Governor race in 2018 as current GOP Gov. Rick Scott is term limited. Founder (1981) & President of very large S.Florida real estate firm, Terranova, and a multimillionaire from its success.

I think the dems have decided the black and brown vote will note be enough to push the over the top and that they will need a larger share of the woman vote. That’s all this is.

[robroys woman]

This is becoming comical.

It is getting to the point where men are apologizing for being male.

And I suspect that is the goal.

[rrrod]

Democrat women are trash to start with.....

[alexander_busek]

“and even the breast-shaped stress squeeze-ball he has been known to keep on his desk.” That’ll get you fired anywhere in the corporate world.

How about wearing a pink hat designed to resemble a woman's external genitalia?

Would that get you fired?

Rapeycrats...

The arrogance of power causes this, with full knowledge that they can get away with, because no one in the media that wants a future career is going to dare call them out on it.

[jaydubya2]

Did he have one of these too?

[KrisKrinkle]

In a written statement, a spokesman for Bittel didn’t dispute the women’s accounts and acknowledged he had the breast-shaped stress balls. But, he said, they were a gift “from a former female general counsel of his company years ago as a joke for his birthday.(Emphasis added.)

Is anybody complaining about the "inappropriateness" of a woman doing this?

“He makes comments about what women wear, about how they look,” she said.

And women don't?

[butlerweave]

Made them dress as Slave Girls ?

[stylin19a]

didn’t see where he resigned.

[SunkenCiv]

In 2020, the Demwit nominee isn't going to be Hitlery (I'd be surprised if she lives that long); it seems likely that Brainless Joe Biden will grope his way to the nomination, picking a female running mate. By that time, the great middle of the country, along with various ethnic minorities, will have realized that the end of the world didn't happen, that American life under President Trump is pretty great, and that the Demagogic Party is, well, demagogic, and delivers nothing while smearing others for their own misdeeds. Thanks Leaning Right.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Is Bittel a “comedian” too?

[hal ogen]

ALL DIMs/LIBs are “comedians”. They are only worth a laugh.
