Sharon Davis: I Was Groped, Too (Desperation?)
Newsmax ^ | 10/6/03 | Carl Limbacher

Posted on 10/06/2003 1:06:40 PM PDT by truthandlife

Even California first lady Sharon Davis wants to get into the act, diving into the Schwarzenegger accusathon Sunday night to detail her own humiliating groping experience while working as a mini-skirted flight attendant decades ago.

"I worked for the airlines," Mrs. Davis told CNN's "Larry King." "In fact, I worked for PSA when we wore short little uniforms."

"Because of the type of uniform we wore people felt like they could take liberties and it was humiliating and so I understand [why Arnold's accusers are upset]," she explained.

Asked if male passengers had ever grabbed her, Mrs. Davis told King, "Oh, well, yes. Or they would say things that you would know they would never want said to their daughter or their wife or their girlfriend or their niece and it's so humiliating."

She said she identified with Arnold's alleged grope victims, explaining, "I understand these women not coming forward because you're so humiliated. You really want to put it out of you mind. You want to just put it behind you but it's really always there."

Mrs. Davis did not explain how she managed to endure the company one of her husband's most prominent supporters, serial sexual predator Bill Clinton, while suffering through her grope flashbacks.

Where do these people live? Have they never been to a fraternity party? Did they have NO social life?

And what the HELL is wrong with these Democratic women that they cannot defend themselves in situations like this??????

What did King get into regarding her husbands abuses of women? Nothing I assume.

Ah, now you're bringing back memories of my wild and misspent youth...TOGA TOGA TOGA....

But I digress. I was groped when I worked in a factory, I was groped when I worked as a waitress--hell, I was even groped by patients when I worked in a nursing home ("It's a boob, George, not a handle....").

There's a big difference between being groped and sexual harassament. Sexual harassment doesn't even have to involve any sexual contact. It means there's a threat to one's employment in exchange for sexual contact, actual or proposed.

Wishful thinking? Being married to Gray the wimp would leave out any future groping.

Hey this guy groped too if I recall (how scary is that! eee gads!)Didn`t he throw some waitress on a table or something and jump on top of her? Oh but that`s right, that`s not groping..That`s attempted rape, a Kennedy tradition, and that don`t count. Murder and the rape of women is ok as long as your a leftie..It was probably like that scene in Braveheart where that guy licks her face 'You remind me of my daughter'."Err--aabba...*hic* You errra-- remind me of *err*...my *errr*...first ...bottle ,,err *hic*.

Unfortunately for Sharon, Gray has never groped her. She only wishes he would. In fact, I suspect that Gray has never touched Sharon. I have always had the impression that Sharon was for window dressing.

Right out of the clinton playbook...send out the little woman to do some damage control and hype the spin of the moment.

I'd pry their hands off if they weren't big tippers. ;)

Well, if she was a stew for PSA back in the "Coffee, Tea or Me?" days of aviation, I'm not surprised. There was a lot of that going around, especially when they wore the pink hot pants. I had a friend who was a PSA stew and she was groped and propositioned at least 2-3 times a week. Her comment on the whole thing was any stew who wasn't groped at least once a month wasn't pretty enough to be flying for PSA. I never copped a feel on a stew like that, but I had a number of experiences making out or more with stews, usually they were either the actual aggressor or were pretty clear what they wanted. In the early '70s, I ended up on an intercontinental flight (London-Los Angeles, nonstop) that was so late there were only a dozen or so passengers on a 747. It was the most memorable flight of my life. I had a chance to act out most of the fantasies of partying on a plane. The few passengers who didn't want to party were in the front first class, and the party was in the upstairs first class piano lounge and otherwise around the plane. One of the stews was a girl I'd known and dated a bit in college, and it was quite a party with a couple of stews per young college-aged guy.

I was never groped, but every time I see a picture of Hillary, I feel violated.

Teddy has a notorious reputation. I know at least two women he's hit on in unbelievably vulgar and offensive ways. Neither of them would ever go public (as they're respectable matrons by now), but their level of digust for him is palpable when his name comes up.

Fond memories. I took my first flight on PSA back in 1970, on my 9th birthday, by myself. The stews were very nice.

Cute, too.
