Kansas Dem Andrea Ramsey, Accused of Sexual Harassment, Will Drop Out of US House Race
Kansas City Star Online ^ | 12/15/17 | Lindsay Wise and Bryan Lowry

Posted on 12/15/2017 8:04:04 AM PST by LRoggy

WASHINGTON Andrea Ramsey, a Democratic candidate for Congress, will drop out of the race after the Kansas City Star asked her about accusations in a 2005 lawsuit that she sexually harassed and retaliated against a male subordinate who said he had rejected her advances.

Multiple sources with knowledge of the case told The Star that the man reached a settlement with LabOne, the company where Ramsey was executive vice president of human resources. Court documents show that the man, Gary Funkhouser, and LabOne agreed to dismiss the case permanently after mediation in 2006.

Ramsey, a 56-year-old retired business executive from Leawood, was one of the Democratic candidates vying to challenge Republican Rep. Kevin Yoder in 2018 in Kansas’ 3rd District.

She was running with the endorsement of Emily’s List, a liberal women’s group that has raised more than a half-million dollars to help female candidates who support abortion rights.

There are sooooo many stories of women in business mistreating male coworkers and underlings. They talk, write and act disrespectfully and insultingly to men (maltreatment and sexism). They go for sex and burn any refuser, as here. A guy gets promoted over a she, she burns him — just make a lie claim against him and he’s toast (just like in divorce court). Hell, most women don’t like having a woman boss.

If the dam breaks for men’s claims against women, whoooooeeeee! Popcorn Club!

So she did this when she was executive VP for HR —the person responsible for telling everyone else how to conduct themselves.

I’m surprised Ramsey dropped out. She harrassed a man. That gives her cred. In fact, so would harassing a woman.

As for the picture of Hillary ogling the boobs, that’s what one of the three accusers on Megyn Kelly accused Trump of doing. She was a beauty pageant contestant. This actress was letting them hang out. They were both volunteers.

Who cares, just a primary contender.

A low-value sacrifice.

Another East Coaster from private education, who chooses to live with those evil Republicans, Midwesterners no less

Interesting isn’t how how the Andrea Ramseys of the Nation never “diversify” minority hoods . .those they always try to portray as “victims” from the white suburbs when seeking their votes

I think it’s about to work out that way.

It was only a matter of time before they went after the females in power.

Next will come the lesbians, who are noted for favoring those of their own sexual orientation when considering job applicants and rewarding present employees.

After that, maybe gay men? Not sure I see the case there, but nowadays, who knows.

Yeah I saw, I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “He saw me wearing a robe” Huh? What? Oh but the way she put it was “I was naked underneath my robe” LOL!! That’s like saying “I was naked while wearing clothes ergo it is sexual assault if anyone looks at me.”
