Another Cain Accuser Identified (another "registered Republican")
NPR (BARF!) ^ | 11-08-2011 | Mark Memmot

Posted on 11/08/2011 10:43:42 AM PST by autumnraine

Karen Kraushaar, a 55-year-old federal employee and registered Republican, has been identified as one of the two women who in the late 1990s settled claims of sexual harassment against 2012 GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain, our colleague Liz Halloran reports on the It's All Politics blog and the NPR Newscast.

Kraushaar's identity was first revealed by The Daily, an iPad news site produced by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. Until today, her name had not been published. She has not agreed to speak publicly or say more about the incident than her lawyer did last week, but she has confirmed to NPR that she is one of the two women who were reported about by Politico on Oct. 31 — the story that started the series of reports about Cain's alleged actions.

It’s beyond sophomoric to lead off with a statement of the accuser’s party registration, as if that were a serious factor.

LOL. You’d think some editor would take the ‘registered republican’ out for fear the reporter would appear to anxious to lend credibility to the charge. Its so obvious.

What?

Her party registration is federal employee.

Pretty much tells us who's behind all this.

Same person who donated to the DNC? Lists

KRAUSHAAR, KAREN
GERMANTOWN, MD 20874
U.S. TREASURY/PUBLIC AFFAIRS

DNC SERVICES CORPORATION/DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE 01/11/2009 250.00 29991055385

Not sure if the same person though, but I thing the accuser works for US Treasury according to this post.

Karen Kraushaar currently serves as a communications director at the Inspector General’s Office of the Treasury Department, a position she has held since last year. She did not return phone messages left by The Daily.

They only call these people “Registered Republicans” so that people hearing it will say “Oh well she is a Republican, speaking out about another Republican, obviously she is telling the truth” all this is is a smear campaign by BOTH sides trying to get Cain out and Romney the nomination

We have all these accusers, but actual accusations from only one woman. How is that possible?

Hilarious. As Mark Twain said and NPR well knows, ‘a lie can travel around the world before the truth can get it’s pants on.’

More like GMTA.
I think they are the same due to location and it isn’t that common of a name.

Isn’t this the same woman who said “no thank you” once the NRA said they would release her from confidentiality?

I get it....she won’t talk...Sharon the Gold Digger ends up being a disaster, so now they release the identity of the other gal— but no information or details as to what Herman supposedly did....

their designed hanging has ended up being their own....

keep it up there MSM— you are going to drive BeckTV into a total success.....

“registered Republican”


Proof Please!! Show me your registration and agree to let the Republican party confirm her registration. Short of that I call absolute bull shit on this one. Federal Employee.....of course she is, which means she votes herself other peoples money by voting Democrat every time without fail.
