Uh-oh, he just completely alienated the Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan vote!

Herman Cain: ”The United States of America is NOT going to become the United States of Europe – not on OUR watch!”

Oh dear, now Cain detractors have a new talking point:

“He thinks there is a Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan!!”

(snicker)

I love Cain’s sense of humor.

He should look the MSM reporter in the eye and say:
“Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan? Isn’t that right next door to Derkaderkastan?”

This is brilliant. I hope the epsilon-minus semi morons of the media will give it a lot of play. Now, whenever a gotcha question surfaces, the public will remember this, and it will fall flat or even backfire.

Cain is nobody's fool.

On second thought, maybe we shouldn’t snicker — who knows how many illegals from Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan are in the country and voting with fake ID?

I think Cain is getting some pretty good advice. If he doesn’t know something, just defer and say he will get back to the interviewer if it is important enough. Just as he didn’t need to wade into the FEMA matter, the N*Head “controversy.” the “Romney is a Mormon” non issue, he needn’t let the interviewers get him off his message by bringing up petty crap. He appears to be getting more media savvy each day. And that’s a GOOD thing!

Cain needs to remember he's auditioning for president, commander-in-chief, and leader of the free world--not comedian-in-chief. He needs to know some of this stuff.

He has got to start getting serious about this. The more flippant he acts, the more doubts many people will have about whether he's really ready for the job.

Cain is surging and has a golden opportunity to do something special here. Does he not realize this? If he doesn't, or if he does realize it but doesn't really care to put in the effort, do we really want him in the job?

Relax, it’s okay to make a joke once in a while.

*************

QUESTION: What would you bring to the White House?

Cain: Sense of humor because America is too uptight.

And made fun of Perrys’ vaunted speaking abilities in the process. At least that is what some of the more....zealous of the Perry supporters might say.

I want to focus on the top priorities of this country. That's what leaders do.

Seems like when we think a presidency is going to be all about the economy, events prove otherwise.

I can see the SNL skits already - “I can see Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan from my front porch”

He needs to know some of this stuff.

He needs to know how to hire smart people to keep track of the details, bring the important things to his attention, and provide him with options to take decisions.

He has the ability to understand briefings, unlike the idiot usurper in residence now.

You didn’t get the JOKE. As expected.

Him (Cain) knowing or not knowing who is the president of Uzbekistan is tantamount to knowing how the fry machine works at one of his restaurants. Just because a 15 yr old knows how the machine works shouldn't qualify him to be CEO and chairman Godfather's Pizza!

That is why you have the CIA.

Are you a reporter? If not, you missed your calling.

Just a little south of Trashcanistan.
