A goose is something Cain does. His pic is next to the word in the dictionary.

Isn't that a kid's game? Duck, duck, goose, and whoever gets chosen as the goose has to get up and run around the circle? Well, it would make sense.Koko does manage to stay in perpetual circular motion.

Damn them left-wing pansy sissy pinko moonbats!

Oh, so that's the connection of the post to the topic.

And another negative opinion of Cain from the RIGHT:



You don’t think four separate women accusers are credible? You don’t think his amateurish handling of the sexual harassment and assault claims is troubling? You’re not bothered by his near total lack of knowledge of foreign policy? Well, what about bigotry?. I’m talking about just plain old, irrational condemnation of a group of people based on stereotypes and/or ignorance. Well, that’s Herman Cain for you. Politico recounts:

In an interview with GQ, Herman Cain goes back to an early theme of his campaign: suggesting American Muslims pose a creeping threat to society. From the transcript:

Devin Gordon: Do you think that there is a greater tendency among the Muslim faith for that kind of extremism?

Herman Cain: That would be a judgment call that I’m probably not qualified to make, because I can’t speak on behalf of the entire Muslim community. I have talked with Muslims that are peaceful Muslims. And I have had one very well known Muslim voice say to me directly that a majority of Muslims share the extremist views.

...

Devin Gordon: Do you think he’s right?

Herman Cain: Yes, because that’s his community. That’s his community. I can’t tell you his name, but he is a very prominent voice in the Muslim community, and he said that.

Notice the slimy way in which he attributes the sentiment to some unknown leader. (Cain’s advisors are always unknown, and I am beginning to see why they wouldn’t want to be associated with him.) And if he doubts the slur, why is he repeating it? Well, this isn’t the first time that Cain came out with blatant bigotry. As Politico reminds us,“Cain’s views on Islam were an early stumbling block for his campaign. After rising in the polls following the first debate in May, Cain lost ground when he said he wouldn’t want to appoint Muslims to his Cabinet, and then tried to explain away the comment by saying he meant he wouldn’t appoint jihadists.” And he also wanted them to take a special loyalty oath.

I’ve been very unforgiving when it comes to birtherism, because it plays to the worst sentiments in a fraction of the electorate and is a grave distraction from the essential issues we should be discussing. But Cain’s reflexive anti-Muslim bigotry makes birtherism seem like a Socratic discussion on the nature of truth. Cain is running for president, and would if elected (now exceptionally improbable), be the president of all Americans, responsible for assuring the equal protections of the law. There simply isn’t any place for slandering an entire religious group in public life, let alone from the mouth of a presidential aspirant.

Moreover, Cain does immense damage to those focused on a narrow, discrete problem: The radicalization of some Muslims in the United States. Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) has enough problems beating down the allegations of discrimination and trying to conduct a thoughtful inquiry into how we can intercede in the process of radicalization. King and others trying to cultivate useful strategies against jihadist elements are undermined — and will inevitably be lumped in — with Cain’s know-nothing attacks on all Muslim Americans.

Shame on Mr. Cain. And shame on those who should know better and continue to defend him.

I'm sorry I could not read the entire thread (good lord 13 pages already!!!). So this might have been said already.

The more I read, the more I suspect Cain's own group actually leaked the original allegations of sexual abuse/harassment.

jillio

It would not come as a surprise for me in the least. Ready made excuse for loosing. Blame the other guy. He seems to be fond of that tactic.

rockin'robin

Possible....just to get him more exposure...or the other party digging up dirt to discredit him...so many expanations...

saywhatkid

Since he just replies to the OP, it makes little sense. Or you can say it is blatant trolling and thread derailing tactics.

Oops, forgot to quote.

By the way, Cain's wife has come forward:

Cain 'totally respects women,' wife says - CNN.com


I don't seem to recall Clinton, Hart, or even Edward's wives coming forward

or even them claiming they would take a lie detector test.

Thinking very highly of yourself as usual I see

Give yourself a big pat on the back.

Jiro

Oh? Then do you recall Hillary Clinton continuing to stand by Bill Clinton despite of impeachment trial and Lewinsky scandal?

Absolutely no gaffe to admit to

What kind of motor took someone 190 miles in 45 minutes back in 1970?

Whatever it was, I want one

deafskeptic

I don't recall reading that though I've read his other books. i will have to check it out.

Eh? It's beneath me to compare myself to those with sub par education.

The only time I think highly of myself is when I defeated a math genius (grandmaster-like level) one time in chess.

1970 protests erupted across Ohio, tear gas at OSU - Campus - The Lantern - Ohio State University


I guess the local protests were not as "happening"

Totally plausible a 13 year old would take a car that had a turbo within a turbo to a protest 190 miles away.

Jiro

this is related to this thread...... how?

Meh, from SSA Clint Hill's statement on Nov 30..

and his testimony


Parkland hospital doctor, Marion Jenkins

If she were climbing out, extending her arms beyond her upper body before moving either of her knees up to the top of the vehicle would be a strange way to do it IMO. To me it looks like she is using her knees to brace herself from going out the back of the car, almost like someone would when reaching over a ledge

Many at the time claimed Jackie was trying to help the SSA into the car....But Hill's testimony makes that doubtful.

Jackie told the Warren Commission she had no recollection of being in the truck.

I think I've never ever met anybody with remarkably bizarre sense of humor like yours.

I thought they ALL came forward to defend their husband, despite evidence of wrongdoing. None of them needed lie detector tests because they all cheated. They were all caught.

What about Senator Craig from Idaho? He never admitted his guilt, except in court, then denied it again. Wide stance, anyone?

I could list more, but the thread is about Cain, not your ability to recall Democrats that cheated. If you like, there are threads devoted to just that.


Republican Sex scandals since 2006

A gaffe, a lie, whatever you want to call it. She never said she went 190 miles in 45 minutes, so you continue speaking with a forked tongue. You have NO credibility is here, sorry to say.

Hey Shitstain, until you've got anything meaningful to add to this conversation, can you just shut up?

Thanks,

Everyone Else.

jillio

So, he lied to her, too. He has shown a propensity for that.

You keep talking about him claiming to be willing to take a lie detector test. Why hasn't he? That claim is nothing but hot air without the action to back it up. But then, you are quite familiar with that, aren't you?

jillio

Post edited. No reason to even address the lies.

jillio

Exactly. Never said it, never said I lived in Columbus at the time, I was not 13 years old...none of anything Steiny has to say is true. Yet he continues to post blatant lies. Oh, well. I guess it is the conservative in him.. In facNever stated that I went 190 miles in 45 minutes. In fact, I don't even know where that 190 mile figure came from. Just something else he decided to pull out of his butt, or he is incapable of doing simple math, I don't know which. He certainly cannot subtract, or he would have gotten my age correct.
