'She's Got to Be Lying'

Anita hale alleged Clarence thomas made sexual advances and told explicit jokes. During the hearings, senator allen simpson pressed her on this point. She suggested that i was afraid of retaliation. I was afraid of damage to my professional life. If what you this man said to you occurred, why in god's name, when he left his position of power or status or authority over you, and you left it in 19 83? Why in god's name would you ever speak to a man like that for the rest of your life? That's a very good question, and i am sure that i cannot answer that to your satisfaction.
