    Pretty easy to fall on your sword and apologize when you have been busted for an activity. The scumbag likely would never have done anything to change if the victims had never come forward.

    Default Lauer and all the others....

    Have all adopted the typical, liberal, DNC instruction manual used to apologize for things they say....then pretend they didn't mean to say it....while they really did mean to do what they did. It's a constantly repeated trick being used. Saying they are sorry, ashamed, and angry at themselves is nothing but BIGGER LIES, used to convince the other LIARS that it's as easy as admitting you did something...and feel sorry for yourself to make everybody feel sorry for them. BUT....IT ISN'T WORKING. There are too many LIARS out there who are being exposed as the PIECES OF SHIT...THEY REALLY ARE, AND HAVE BEEN. Protected by other liars in the Press, and Protected by Congress with 12 million dollars of PAYOFF money to keep people quiet....and forcing them to sign a NON-DISCLOSURE FORM.
    It's nowhere near being OVER. Conyers is in the hospital....where he can't be confronted by the press....the Honest press.
    I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
    So, this is for them.

    I hardly advocate victim-blaming. Some women are entirely innocent in harmful sexual encounters. They are genuine victims and deserve our love and support. But that isn’t every single situation labeled “sexual harassment” or “sexual assault.” Injecting a little common sense can prevent some of these circumstances in the future, just like car alarms help prevent theft.

    I have learned that shame and embarrassment are necessary tools for growth. The first time I drank alcohol, I was at a house party in front of my crush. Unaware of my limit, I downed an excessive amount of vodka and quite naturally proceeded to vomit it up, all over myself plus every square inch of the ceramic-tiled floor I stood upon.

    To no one’s surprise, that crush never became my boyfriend, but on the plus side, I never drank myself into such a state ever again. Do bad. Feel bad. And never repeat. Personal responsibility is underrated.

    Of course, had I waited a few years later for the birth of modern feminism, the outcome of that night might have been drastically different. I might have instead blamed the person hosting the party for allowing such debauchery in the first place. I might have hired Lisa Bloom to represent me, crying beside her on-camera that I “didn’t know that underage drinking at college parties might have negative consequences.” How could I have known?

    Today, such victimhood is in hot demand. Damsel-in-distress is the new black. Feminism, a movement meant to empower women, continually presents them as weak, non-intuitive sheep, wandering into the dens of lions for friendship and guidance during the hour of feasting.

    I viscerally reject this narrative. I have grown exhausted with the notion that I ought to be more understanding of every single sex-related complaint lodged by a woman, that these women fear that their careers will terminate if they do not give into sexual advances.

    Let me spell this one out: if your career requires you to have sex with men, you need a new career. I will not normalize prostitution for the sake of Hollywood aspirations.

    So, to you petey....that makes everything okay, better, finished? Liberals always say they are sorry, or apologize instantly after they get CAUGHT for doing what they INTENDED to do in the first place. That apology is like Lauer admitting he murdered somebody, but he did it accidentally by pulling the trigger until the Clip was empty. But he's sorry, and won't do it again! LIAR LAUER LIES, LIKE LOTS OF LIBERALS.
