Yes, here’s Cain’s website:

“This led to his acceptance of a position on the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, and he was subsequently elected their chairman”

Are we talking Fed or are we talking selection of Romney.

Either is true. His own website agrees with the first, and the transcript agrees with the 2nd. You might notice he didn’t select Micky Mouse, GI Joe, Spiderman, or even Popeye the sailorman.

He was asked to name a VP and he selected ROMNEY and that name over all others on that stage.

Live with it, FW. It’s just a fact.

You are not the person I have taken you for in years past. I am shocked and disappointed.

Which topic were you focused on: the Fed or VP Romney?

Either is true in the way I’ve presented it. Both are fantasy the way you and the other “Cain the Messiah” followers are handling it.

This is getting wacky.

The response to even the slightest criticism of Cain is almost religious in intensity. These people are looking for a savior and they cannot accept the fact that their savior has flaws.

Now that Palin is out, they need a new savior. They have found him in Cain. It is really bizarre.

As I pointed out to you. Posting someone else lie is still lying.

I gave them Cain’s own website and the transcript of the debate and they appear to be denying their existence.

I am absolutely puzzled at what they are objecting to.

Now the pure, condescending insults. I do not see Cain as a messiah or as perfect. I do expect people whom I had previously mistaken for honest to post actual quotes and not to smear w misrepresentations. I’m disgusted w what I’ve seen on this thread. It’s not the Cain supporters who are OTT—it’s the anti-Cain crew.

What are you talking about? I posted from Cain’s own website and from the transcript of the debate. The first is CAIN’S own words; the 2nd is a word by word exact replica of the debate.

I have no idea where you think a lie exists????

That doesn’t bother me, either. It’s just when they continue to do so after being informed that they are toeing the DNC line.

They are calling us liars because we tell the truth. These people think they are electing a Messiah, not a Chief Executive. The president can't save the country. Constitutionally the President's powers are limited.

I want a president that won't do much of anything for the next 8 years except veto stupid laws, cancel stupid regulations and appoint smart judges.

Pffft. So Cain previously endorsed Romney, says he’d be VP but not to Perry, says towns can ban one religion’s houses of worship, supported TARP, won’t sign pro-life pledges, personally accused Perry of being insensitive about a rock, etc. RA! RA! RA! or some such.

I am not “anti-Cain”. I am “Cain is not on my conservative list until he convincingly walks back some of his statements.”

I’m in a waiting mode on Cain. Is that hard to understand or something?

We have a winner!

It took longer than I thought, but I might have skimmed over it in an earlier post.

Last chance. What is the number of the post where you quoted Cain exactly from the transcript. His FULL quote, in context, word for word, in quotation marks. If it’s all there, I’ll apologize. If it’s some bastardized truncated version and you still play dumb about what I’m saying, disgust is too mild a word.

it is almost a religion to them the way they are acting.

I believe in Jesus for forever, but He is the only perfect one.

Cain has warts. Lots of them. They see the beautiful princess; I see the hag. Gotta get them a different magic mirror.

You left out his idea that states can ban people from owning guns. But other than that, you got it right.

I’m not playing dumb about anything. I’m saying that the first name out of his mouth was Romney. It was.

I didn’t need the full quote to establish that. I needed to show where the first name out of his mouth was Romney.

He talks about playing along with the HYPOTHETICAL. He picks Romney. Then he says Gingrich would be his 2nd choice. We have gone over this.

NONE of that changes the fact that the first name that came to him was Romney.

(APPLAUSE)

BAIER: Mr. Cain?

CAIN: This is a game, and it is hypothetical. I’ll play the game.

(LAUGHTER)

If — if Governor Romney would throw out his jobs growth plan and replace it with 999, he has a shot.

(LAUGHTER)

If he does not, I would probably go with Speaker Gingrich, who I have the greatest admiration for, in all seriousness, because of his history and because of his depth of knowledge. I could go on because I have respect for everybody up here. But it’s a game.

(LAUGHTER)

BAIER: It is a YouTube question.
