Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green had sex with a staffer who he said was a drug addict and then sued her when she threatened to go public with claims she suffered a hostile work environment, saying he will not be extorted or blackmailed.
Lucinda Daniels, his onetime district director, claimed she suffered a hostile work environment, claimed sexual harassment and demanded $1.8 million. Green sued her, saying she was using their sexual relationship to shake him down at the behest of other unnamed conspirators.
Daniels has threatened to go public with her complaints if the Congressman does not per her money. Green has done nothing wrong and refuses to pay hush money just for political expediency. Green will not be extorted or blackmailed by Daniels. He will not be the victim of a shakedown by Daniels and her agents. Green demands vindication of his actions and now sues Daniels for declaratory judgment relief relating to her workplace allegations and her quest for money, documents Green filed in federal court in 2008 say.
Daniels also unknowingly dialed the congressman while she was allegedly buying cocaine. Green submitted the voicemail, now sealed, as evidence in the case.
In the recording, Daniels is heard snorting the cocaine immediately before questioning whether it was cut with some other substance and being assured that it was straight off the ki[lo] Daniels asks for the purchase price of the drugs, which she calls her Tuesday special price. In response, the drug dealer sells her the drugs for $40.
Green said Daniels act[ed] sluggish at work as through under the influence of drugs and slurr[ed] her speech as if under drug influence. He claims she fell asleep on the phone in the middle of telephone conversations with staff and the Congresswoman and had a general appearance of incoherence at times due to apparent drug use.
Lucinda Daniels, the staffer, claimed she suffered a hostile work environment.
Green confronted Daniels on the drug use and suggested she seek treatment. Not long afterward, Daniels claims the Congressman retaliated against her in the workplace because of her gender and because she refused additional romantic requests. Green rejected her claims as false.
Though the case apparently went unnoticed, Greens office put out a preemptive statement Monday in conjunction with Daniels saying:
In the present climate, we wish to jointly quiet any curious minds about our former and present relationship with one another. We are friends, and have long been friends. At an unfortunate time in our lives, when both of our feelings were hurt, we hastily made allegations and charges against one another that have been absolutely resolved.
This matter has been resolved without payment of any money or transfer of any consideration of any kind by either of us to the other. As friends, we have both agreed that we see no need to make further statements regarding this absolutely resolved matter.
Houston. What do you expect?
Im glad that Im not the only one who thinks of that song whenever I hear this idiots name.
So Alley Oop has been a bad boy. Bet he never had a problem with her drug use while he was banging her. It only became a problem when she tried to get him to pay her.
Nope...this Al Green looks like the cartoon caveman Alley Oop.
Could everyone quit calling them “Democratic”? Please? Call them the party of Democrats or the Democrat party, but not “the Democratic party.” Because nothing could be farther from the truth.
What a weird friendship. Making what they now claim are false allegations each other in court, and now they’re just hunky-dory. No payments made either. There are some things that are just not believable; this harmonious and politically expedient arrangement is one of them.
Green is one of the ugliest members of Congress ever

Of course, with Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro in the race, the race for ugliest member is a hotly contested race among the Democrats
That said, if Green didn’t realize that the only reason ANY woman would sleep with him would be for money, then he is also well-placed in the race for the dumbest member of Congress.
Of course, with Congressman Hank Johnson in the Dumb Derby, that is also a hotly contested race.

Her taste in men, however...
I was under the impression the term ‘democratic party’ is insulting to democrats.
When your staffer is clearly a coke addict, your first move should always be:
1) Fire her
Or
2) sleep with her
?
Ha!
Al Green does a great job with For the Good Times, the one written by Kris Kristofferson..
