It must be so hard to be so desired by men. Get conceited much? Ha ha...another failure in life and love pretending it doesn’t matter. You screwed up sister, no one wants you now. It’s over for you.

“It went on like that for 20 minutes until I finally realized they weren’t going to show the story I wanted at all.”

Some breaking news gets spiked by all news sources, particularly the most interesting news. Most of the time they are right to spike news. But those rare moments when something shouldn’t have been hidden are the leading reason for conspiracy theories.

Gotta say... if this woman actually appears she’s got guts.

I think we can tell by watching her if she’s a nut case or has a case.

You should be a Perry fan then. He’s the only one who’s actually instigated tort reform in Texas.

Bet you’re not.

Very logical question but it’s what people are doing here.

This fervor for Cain has become almost religious in nature.

While knowing almost nothing about these women, they have been crucified.

All I’ve heard is that one of them was 23 and one has been married 26 years which sounds like a stable person to me.

People here act like these women are trying to take Cain down as a political candidate.

One, he was not in politics when this happened and no one thought he ever would be.

Two, there were complaints about him that led to two women leaving their jobs (quit or fired - we don’t know - or maybe paid to leave). They seem to have been given the equivalent of a year’s salary to leave.

I’ve seen a lot of laughing at the paltry sums, but I’ve worked for paltry sums like that and a year’s salary is a princely sum to people making that amount.

It’s ok to stick up for Cain if you love him, but why attack the women? Even if it turns out their complaints were petty, do they deserve being called the names they are called here.

I do not believe either of them will come forward. I wouldn’t if this is a preview of the treatment they will receive.

omigosh. I’m feeling really left out.

And I thought I was pretty cute back in the days of my working career.

But, wow, why did I never get hit on... I must have had some look on my face. People used to tell me, ‘get that look off your face.’

But since I’m hearing a lot of stories here about women having to endure this behavior, I’m wondering ... would you ladies vote for the hitter if he later on decided to run for president?

Just wondering.

I would advise against longing for Palin.

I was a huge Palin supporter. My gosh, if I had the hours back that I spent on this forum adoring and defending her, I could clean out the refrigerator or something.

She’s not coming back. She let us down. I don’t dislike her for it, but neither do I want her back.

From the initial reports, which I did not read, it was my understanding that the complaints were just small stuff anyway. I don’t recall anyone claiming that either of those women complained of anything really bad.

With this being released, it was clear that just the fact the complaints were made at all, and the fact that settlements were payed out, was what they intended to have do the harm to Cain.

His camp wanted to put the heat onto the women in order to take the focus off of those two simple facts. Fair enough, but only if they were the ones that leaked the info initially to Politico. But Cain then turns and blames Perry for “leaking” this, all the time admitting he has NO proof of such a thing, he just feels there are “breadcrumbs”.

If those two women had nothing to do with Politico being tipped off, then the focus on them is misplaced. So, they filed minor complaints twelve years ago, signed their agreements, and never went public afterwards.

Double standards.

Tort Reform is essential because right now, we have no Justice. There is no Just Law—and that is why America is going down.

Cicero writes about it (why the great Republic of Rome was collapsing)—how if the laws are corrupted—how if law becomes just arbitrary law—based on judges whims —giving favor and power to his buddies or using corrupt arbitrary laws to destroy business (Gibson Guitars) and laws to prevent the protection of borders (AZ) that Rule of Law ceases. You will get anarchy.

All Positive Law has to be logical and based on reason and be aligned with Natural Law Theory (which acknowledges God’s standards of Right and Wrong). People and groups can NOT be treated unequally. AND sodomy shouldn’t be considered a “right”. It is the stupidest idea out there. Look at how sodomy works for Afghanistan.

That being said Perry has obviously done some good things! But I don’t think he has charisma while speaking. I think he appears dumb. He looks good in photos though. I don’t trust his intelligence either. He was talked into mandating a vaccine—such a fascist thing—by a Merck person. Also, his stance on “homosexual” marriage caters to people who believe there is NO Natural Law Theory (the very basis of our legal system).

Govt. should not be promoting laws which favor a Marxist system which deprive a child of their basic right to be raised by their biological parents. Our government should get rid of No Fault Divorce laws (it made contracts a joke and Lenin used it to destroy marriage and children). Government should promote those type of contracts which support a flourishing in human beings—where a mother can actually stay home and raise and teach children—mold their characters—instead of having the State do a crappy job and create dumb useful idiots like we see on Wall Street.

Just Law is when you acknowledge Natural Rights, reason and logic and science. Logic, alone, should inform people of the stupidity of “homosexual” marriage and the innate evil of that set up for children. Reason and Biology would easily also —UNLESS you are a Marxist and trying to destroy the pillars of Western Civilization—the natural family and Christianity. Read up on the ugly ideas of Herbert Marcuse. He is one of the guys who created Political Correctness and Sex Ed—to destroy us from within.

I can tell by Perry’s speeches. He doesn’t get it. He doesn’t understand and believe in the principles of Natural Law Theory. That is why I could never vote for him. Without that understanding, there can be no Tort Reform either. He needs to read Cicero to understand why the Republic of Rome fell.

I see my comment hit a nerve.

I'd accuse you of being a liberal but you spelled "disingenuous" correctly.

Cheers!

Your entire post appears to be a non sequitur.

For the benefit of any lurkers, I'll explain.

Herman Cain was accused last week of making "offensive, but NON-sexual" gestures towards womyn with whom he had worked.

A couple of days later, multiple indpendent threads of evidence (tho' not *proof*) showed up that make it plausible that various other campaigns and/or GOP operatives were behind the appearance of the charges; the womyn themselves declined to come forward; and *REAL* victims of sexual harassment or worse at the hands of Bill Clinton show up to throw their support behind Herman Cain in public, and by name.

In other developments, there are multiple reports from OWS and similar Obamavilles around the country, of real sexaual assaults up to and including rape. These enclaves are hard-core leftists.

You spend your time harassing Herman Cain supporters and picking fights attempting to call them misogynists.

So I reply that you should attain maximal utility (in an economic sense) and confront the multiple established confirmed incidents of sexual assault at the Dem protests.

You respond by trolling.

FAIL

Cheers!

nice post. The media failed and followers of the media failed. Mr. Cain had a good talk with Mr. Gingrich last night and that should keep the bots and lefties busy for some time.

You simply respond by airing your own anger towards women. It is misplaced.

Sorry, that one won't work on me: I read it already in Dilbert.

Nice try though.

Cheers!

Clearly, any connection between your reality and mine is strictly coincidental.

You're more than welcome to return to DU or Daily KOS.

I was here first and have an more extensive posting history guaranteeing my bona fides.

Cheers!
