Had she reported it who do you think would have believed her? The laws weren't as tough back then as they are today.

This posts makes no sense. Just what are you attempting to disclose to this thread?

"From 1982 to 1983, she moved on to serve as assistant to the chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Clarence Thomas (see below)."

Why didn't she utilize the bureaucratic remedy?

then explain the Democrats' constant defense of former President Bill Clinton while viciously attacking every woman who has ever come forward with allegations of rape or sexual harassment?

Call your homeboy James Carville and ask him. All I can say is what I said earlier on this thread. Clinton had no business doing what he did with women...........and neither did Clarence Thomas.

Hardly criminal. And she never mentioned it until years later. Howcum? Retro-offensiveness?
No. The context of this thread is Mrs. Thomas' behavior which I have to say, strikes me as darned strange and quite a bit like that of a stalker.
Seriously, what purpose does it serve dredging this up now?

Maybe she is auditioning for Real Wives of Virginia.

Quote from the voicemail:

“Good morning, Anita Hill, it's Ginny Thomas,” it quoted from the voicemail. “I just wanted to reach across the airwaves and the years and ask you to consider something. I would love you to consider an apology sometime and some full explanation of why you did what you did with my husband. So give it some thought and certainly pray about this and come to understand why you did what you did. Okay have a good day.”

After what Hill did to her husband she should have been sued, not just asked for an apology.
