Pathetic.
He chose her because he could control her. She was under his roof and he controlled her employment. She had enormous incentive to keep her mouth shut, whereas a non-employee would have no such compunction. That's why they call it sexual harassment when a person of authority seeks out an employee for sexual gratification.

I'm not excusing his behavior but there is more to the story than that. We don't know all the details, only that he fathered her child and that she remained in his employ for 10 more years. Was she extorting money from him to keep her mouth shut? $1200 per week (her reported salary) is quite a lot for a maid. Did she threaten to blow the whistle if he fired her? She hasn't spoken yet and if the answers to the questions above are "yes", it would sound to me like she was the one in control, not Arnie. From what I have heard, she was threatening to go public and this is why he confessed to his misdeeds. Why now? Why wait until he has left office? There are too many unanswered questions here.

If she did all that...GOOD FOR HER!
WHO need questions answered? Not me. Nor anyone else who isn't involved.


The FACT is he , a known REPUBLICAN predator, bonked an employee....she deserves every penny she can wring out of the pig...

"what" was he thinkg? It what he thinks with that defines this paragon of Republican "virtues".

And it didn't matter what she looked like, he screws because he can, anything, anyway, and anybody, the repub way...

That's what I was thinking.

I love it when the tables are turned on a sexual predator. This song, "Conquest" was first recorded in the 1950's. (I remember it from my own teen years.)

Aw, c'mon....John Edwards and Bill Clinton are no angels either. Screwing around on your wife isn't a Dem or a Rep thing.....it's a guy thing.

I agree, I wondered in an earlier post was she illegal and maybe he was holding it over her?

If he's a pig then she's a total ****. Not like she did'nt know he was married.

How do you figure she deserves anything beyond child support from him? Sleeping with a guy does'nt entitle a woman to part of his earnings. He's obligated to support the kid, not the Mom.
