You obviously can’t get it. Saying it doesn’t make it happen - although that may be over the head, also, of Cain supporters.
Perhaps your impressive skills at throwing out ad hominem attacks and vague, unsupported charges could be better used elsewhere, rather than attacking one of the few conservatives running.
I simply asked you a question, you got condescending and insulting. Hopefully your candidate is better prepared to support their positions than you are.
Okay, you win ...
(Backs slowly away, groping for the door handle behind me, never losing eye contact)
Of course you’re right ...
The youtubers are now dredging up the old Aquila stuff now.

Federal Reserve, globalist, no, thanks.THAT'S the problem. another cockroach preparing for final take down of America. In other words, a RINO Obama. Don't be fooled by this man. Evil as the rest. Your best bet is Ron Paul. No baggage of secret affiliations & involvement in enterprises designed to steal money from taxpayers (the real Herman Cain). Mass media's selling you another "vote for the black man, feel good about yourself" while in reality they both work for the same people. BANKERS!
Banks are evil, he's a tool, he's a Bilderberger, he's a member of the CFR/Trilats/NWO/Corporate America/Banking Cartel/blah blah...did I cover all the Ron Paul talking points?
It's funny how their hero L. Ron Paul has been in Congress for over 30 years and hasn't done a damn thing to further his cause. Some leader, huh?
Cain is just facing reality. Whether he (or we) want the campaign to be about race, IT IS.
We can either:
1. Ignore it
2. Counterattack it with facts that diminish Obama’s claims
I say #2 is more effective...
Sarah and Rebecca's words are plastered all over every media outlet 24/7. It's obvious that they can attack barry verbally.
Other candidates that do, not only do not receive the undivided attention of the propagandists, but some are virtually ignored. Why do you think that is? Have you asked a liberal yet whom they want to run against bigbrobama and why??
That's rich.
Considering that you and the other Sarah-bots refuse to hear the truth about your candidate, that 60% OF THE COUNTRY CAN'T STAND HER...and that she QUIT her last position that people entrusted to her at the ballot box.
Agree.
I thought the video was fantastic. Amazing that BET is even running it. Cain is a uniter, not a divider. We need someone to unite this country, badly. I’ve been waiting for someone like Cain for a long time.
Perhaps the racial stuff will pull more blacks off the plantation ...I hope it does. If blacks themselves are are using the phrase: “I’ve left the plantation” — well, that’s awesome.
I want them off of it ...with me, here — so we can past the slavery/victim crap and all work together for a better country. Cain has the attitude this entire country needs.
The only person holding Cain back now is Cain.
You will clearly come to know of my respect here on FR: 2012 Conservatives/patriots/The "Real Deal" is shall refer to by FIRST NAME.
OTH, RINOS, toadies, sycophants, spineless equivocators, typical DC politicians who run conservative in the primaries and become moderates in office, open borders sellouts, etc. shall all be referred to by LAST NAME.
My new FR policy.
According to five lawsuits filed in federal court in 2004, Aquila's board of directorswhich Cain joined in 1992allegedly steered employees into heavily investing their retirement savings in company stock. At the same time, the company shifted its business model from straightforward energy generation to risky energy trading, an unregulated market made infamous by now-defunct Enron. The suits, later folded into a single, massive class action (PDF), alleged that Cain and top company officials violated a 37-year-old federal law requiring that employers manage employees retirement programs responsibly. (Cain's presidential exploratory committee did not respond to a request for comment.)
Mother Jones?
Please.
I’m not saying it didn’t happen, but c’mon...I can “allege” anything I want.
I, for example, could sue you for being a douche. Doesn’t mean I’d win.
“dredging up the old Aquila stuff now.”
How’bout you explain why it’s “old stuff” to you - but not to the rest of us, CainTard?
Because Baron Rothschild, my neighbor at my Jekyll Island vacation home, told me over tea once not to worry about it.
Then we got in our togas and danced the night away while we buried all the gold we’d just stolen from Fort Knox, then went and killed some kittens.
Afterwards we partied at the Illuminati compound.
IMHO...
I trust a fellow computer guy who has a Bachelor’s in Mathematics - and used it. He was a mathematician in the U.S. Navy.
Then went out and earned a Master’s in Computer Science. Back in the day, in 1971. Old school computers.
He is a man of good moral character.
He is a smart man.
He made his family proud.
I want it real, that’s why I like Herman Cain. No lies, no fumbling, bumbling, stumbling. He knows the numbers to use. He knows the words to use.
He has held managment teams under him accountable.
He has developed and executed business strategies. And they worked.
He did not work for the goverment his whole life; he only served in the U.S. Navy.
He was not elected to anything before. EVERY candidate should have that qualification - it would be HEALTHY for our Republic to get -—— NEW BLOOD !
He is not a political CLIMBER. He does not pander to the masses. If the Republican party does not select him in the primary, HE WILL BE FINE. It will be the Republican’s loss, not his. He does seek to support small business and individuals who work for a living over big business and big government. Because he knows that he will be tasked with CREATING JOBS if elected. And he knows that creating jobs is the first step to helping America recover.
EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT OF A LARGE BUSINESS BUSINESS OPERATION - he understands the details, the mechanics, of running a business. Not a lemonaid stand tiny business, but a fairly large one. So he is comfortable MANAGING AN EXECUTIVE TEAM, where they are very technically advanced in the various business disciplines, i.e., MARKETING, PUBLIC RELATIONS, HR, SALES, OPERATIONS, LOGISTICS, IT, RECUITING-HIRING-FIRING, etc., etc., etc.
He knows better than any other candidate that overuse of “quantitative easing” lowers the value of the dollar relative to other currencies and pushes up our import costs. I think given that he knows there will be a huge expectation for a Republican President to PRODUCE GOOD RESULTS IN THE FIRST TWO YEARS and he is the lone candidate who has the ability to start making the right decisions immediately and is serious about doing just that.
I predict that he will select Michele Bachmann as his VP because she is astute and stalwart. If she is simply involved in his team, she will make it her business to know what is going on inside and out, what the plans are, etc., so if necessary she could step in. And if she had to step in, she is stalwart enough to carry on and not give in to pressure to change what was working and the acumen and wisdom to make smart changes if necessary. She is proving in the House that she is her own woman in terms of decision making, and when I listen to her on C-span it is apparent that she is a hardworking person who combs through legislation. Not all House members do that, I think many leave all the details to their staff.
You speak with much wisdom my friend!
