NC Democratic Party embroiled in sex harassment scandal
Raleigh, N.C. — Leaders of the North Carolina Democratic Party declined to answer questions Friday about reports that a junior staffer quit working for the party last fall after being sexually harassed by a senior party official.
Several party officials said they were told the party settled with the young man and that he signed a non-disclosure agreement. No financial settlement appears on the party's finance reports.
The senior official allegedly behind the harassment is still working at the party's Raleigh headquarters.
Sallie Leslie, a former administrator, quit the state party six weeks ago. She told WRAL News on Friday that the decision came after much thought.
"I, quite frankly, could not be a part of any organization that protected a predator," Leslie said.
Late Friday, state party Chairman David Parker issued a statement saying that people who have left the party in recent months did so for professional reasons.
"Over the last several months, several employees left their employment with the NCDP for business or professional reasons unrelated to their job performance, by mutual agreement of the parties involved," Parker said. "These are personnel matters about which we cannot and will not comment further."
The staffer who left last fall said he cannot talk about the issue.
"We don't know what the truth is. We know what the rumors and conjecture are. So, it's incumbent on the party chair at this time to assemble a full report and release the findings of fact, get the truth out there, get in front of the story," consultant Brad Crone said. "Transparency is the ........

Editor's note: They don't care about the truth. They care about the damage that can be inflicted. The usual Democratic/Leftist/Progressive mantra is throw out the lie today, apologize tomorrow. Don't believe me? Go back and read the following link (this was not an accident): http://freshbrewedconservatism.blogspot.com/2012/04/war-on-womenpart-ii.html
Rosen had this to say about "War on Women"...
"Let's put the faux 'war against stay at home moms' to rest once and for all," she said. "As a mom I know that raising children is the hardest job there is. Let's declare peace in this phony war and go back to focus on the substance." (http://campaign2012.washingtonexaminer.com/article/romney-uses-dems-remark-about-wife-slam-obama/478296)
So if it's phony, is she calling the Democratic party "phony"? They are the ones that started it!
You decide.

I have been busy all morning with the various events going on in Lee County. I have faith that NCDP will handle this according to all relevant laws and it's own operating policy. With any large organization you are going to have issues like this, I just hope that any guilty parties are dealt with in the proper way. However, right now people are just speculating because we do not have all the facts concerning this case, but going off half cocked for conservatives is normal operating procedure.

My goodness Randall, paying the victim off to keep them quite. Then you have them not even censoring the perpetrator Trying to keep it from being disclosed, and you have confidence they will do the right thing?
And you probably need to visit the gunsmith to make adjustments to your cocker as many times as it's went off..........LEE CO DALE
Randall's words: "However, right now people are just speculating because we do not have all the facts concerning this case, but going off half cocked for conservatives is normal operating procedure."
Do what? Going off Randall? Give me a break. Let's just look at one case: Trayvon Martin. Enough said about the right going off half-cocked. Thanks to the inciting of hate and anger by Sharpton and the likes of other hate-mongering groups. Can't separate from them. There are Democratic Congressmen and women calling for justice!! Calling it racism. And oh my goodness, when it's convenient - they hyphenate the ethnicity.
Zimmerman would be smart to stay in jail. That is if he wants to live. Because the left has proven without a doubt...GUILTY until proven innocent. Yet they constantly turn the other way to facts. Maybe you should read this column by Walter Williams:
