The Daily Names One Cain Accuser, And She Works In The Obama Administration
Business Insider ^ | 11/08/2011 | Zeke Miller

Posted on 11/08/2011 8:17:17 AM PST by SeekAndFind

The Daily, the tablet newspaper, named one of the women who filed a sexual harassment claim against Republican front-runner Herman Cain while he was CEO of the National Restaurant Association.

The woman, identified by the paper as Karen Kraushaar, now works as communications director at the Treasury Department's Office of the Inspector General.

Cain has sought to downplay the charge — calling it frivolous — saying she overreacted to a gesture comparing her height to his wife's.

But the paper spoke to friends and family members of Kraushaar who vouch for her honesty — saying she is not the type to bring false allegations.

“She wouldn’t be the type to make false allegations,” brother-in-law Ned Kraushaar, a Georgia software consultant, told The Daily. “This happened [more than] 10 years ago. It’s not like she wanted to try and hurt the Republican Party.”

Joel Bennett, her attorney, held a press conference on Friday to say that his client would not speak publicly.

Some clever soul could start a Twitter List called OccupyHermanCain and add her — even with a private profile, you can’t prevent being added to a List.

"shouldn’t she be required to repay this amount back to the NRA for violating the non-disclosure agreement?"

The NRA lifted the confidentiality agreement for both settlements last Friday. Cain did not oppose.

I believe this is the same Karen Kraushaar- if so, she used to be a spokeswoman for the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). Quoted in this 2002 Human Events original article (”INS Lowballed Deportation Evaders”):

“But now, after queries from Human Events as to just how this analysis was conducted... In a written statement e-mailed to Human Events, INS public affairs officer Karen Kraushaar said: “We have discussed the questions you raise internally...”

Myers: “Did you resist, did you tell him to stop?”

Broaddrick: “Yes, I told him ‘Please don’t.’ He was such a different person at that moment, he was just a vicious awful person.”

Myers: “You said there was a point at which you stopped resisting?”

Broaddrick: “Yeah.”

Myers: “Why?”

Broaddrick: “It was a real panicky, panicky situation. I was even to the point where I was getting very noisy, you know, yelling to ‘Please stop.’ And that’s when he pressed down on my right shoulder and he would bite my lip.”

Broaddrick also says the waist of her skirt and her pantyhose were torn.

Juanita Broaddrick: “When everything was over with, he got up and straightened himself, and I was crying at the moment and he walks to the door, and calmly puts on his sunglasses. And before he goes out the door he says ‘You better get some ice on that.’ And he turned and went out the door.”

Myers: “On your lip?”

Broaddrick: “Yeah.”

Considering she is a former reporter, I bet Josh Kraushaar at Politico is related.

Good catch.

Has anyone asked this guy if he is related in any way to the woman who made the claim against Cain? I don’t want to repeat others’ work, but am interested in hearing/reading his answer.
