Maddow: Dumb Ron Johnson's backhanded attitude toward the victims of Sexual Predators.

Instead of editing for time, here's the MSNBC long version of the Dumb Ron Johnson/Rep. Bill Kramer sexual assault story, compliments of Rachel Maddow, that shows just how much he cares about women's issues. As noted below from the nice summary provided by Think Progress, Johnson is a powerful defender of predator rights.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported a third alleged assault three years earlier. The victim was an aide to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), who informed Johnson, his chief of staff, and a Waukesha County GOP official at the time, though no one took action.

Although Johnson did not violate laws by not reporting the crime, he has had a spotted voting record on taking sexual abuse and harassment seriously. In 2010, Johnson testified against a bill that would have made it easier for victims of child abuse to sue their abusers. Explaining that the bill would “likely create” “economic havoc,” Johnson said he thought trial lawyers would benefit from the Child Victims Act, but not the actual victims. “This bill could actually have the perverse effect of leading to additional victims of sexual abuse,” he claimed, “if individuals, recognizing that their organizations are at risk, become less likely to report suspected abuse.”

Last February, Johnson was one of 22 Senators, all Republican, who voted against an expanded reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act. At the time, he claimed that the bill’s provisions for Native American rape survivors an “unconstitutional expansion of tribal authority.”

Creepy Assembly Majority Leader Bill Kramer asked to step down for Sexual Harassment.

Arrogant Rep. Bill Kramer apparently didn't take no for answer. He took his war on women on the road to Washington, harassing a "33-year-old female lobbyist and at least one other woman."  

"Kramer is accused of groping at least one of the women and making lewd and inappropriate remarks to at least two women."

State Rep. Chris Kapenga accused Kramer of acting inappropriately at a recent meeting of the American Legislative Exchange Council in Chicago. Kapenga said in September that Kramer has often displayed poor behavior at various events.

AP: The Republican majority leader in the state Assembly has been asked to resign his post because of allegations that he sexually harassed multiple women at a meeting in Washington, two Republicans with direct knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Saturday. Rep. Bill Kramer, of Waukesha, was elected by Republican Assembly members as majority leader in September.

GOP Assembly leaders met late Friday to discuss the situation and agreed that Kramer should step down as majority leader. Kramer did not immediately return a message left at his Capitol office. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel went to Kramer's home Friday night but he was not there.
