The author who calls himself simply Toure -- a regular guest on MSNBC, and before that on CNN -- is throwing rhetorical bricks at Herman Cain for Time magazine. His article is headlined "Is Herman Cain the Most Unctuous Black Man Alive? Why the Hermanator experience is making me sick."
Toure compared Cain to a circus clown, called him a "buffoon," compared him to "rancid, spoiled, stinky, curdled milk" and dissed him (in the liberal mind) by calling him "the Black Sarah Palin." In the midst of that, he somehow scolds Cain for "sinking to teenage-level disses." He began:
This presidential election has not lacked for clowns, and in a circus Herman Cain fits right in. But as the Black clown, Cain's foot-in-mouth moments mostly involve insulting the Black community. This could be to establish his independence from the community in order to earn his bona fides with the GOP electorate or a way of appeasing the white conservatives he's courting. Or it could be that his foot and his mouth are magnetized. Whatever the reason, as a Black person, the Hermanator experience has been as distasteful as rancid, spoiled, stinky, curdled milk.

This is a great opportunity to go to the Time article page and engage the culture!!
You beat me to it. I was going to say the author is a little confused.... “O” is the one who reinvented ‘unctuous’.
What BS!!
Herman is pure gold!
Herman must be right on target!...................
TIME’s up.
Just one of the *many* definitions that can be applied to Obama.
Amazing how you can get away with being a big white racist, saying deplorable things about a black man, if you are on the left.
Unctuous | Define Unctuous at Dictionary.com
adjective 1. characterized by excessive piousness or moralistic fervor, especially in an affected manner; excessively smooth, suave, or smug.
It could go both ways, who knows?
Stop talking abou Mitt Obamney like that....
If any candidates are unctuous, it would be Romney and Huntsman.
You nailed that one?
The media picked McCain and they want Romney! I have seriously been thinking of writing in Herman Cain if Romney gets the nomination.
No bias there, lol.
That is a funny thought.
I pointed out a few days ago that Cain is playing the role that the Palinistas swore Palin would play now, bucking the establishment, the RINOs, and the MSM and rallying conservatives to someone we actually like to see. He is out there dropping conservative fire-bombs everyday saying things that drive them nuts. And unlike Palin who never even intended to run, Cain is an actual candidate.
Another difference with Palin, Cain occasionally mispeaks when being asked trap got-ya questions then corrects the record, but unlike Palin he actually does give real interviews, and tough ones that I dont see Perry or Romney doing.
Cain better get prepared for the next debate on foreign policy or that could be his Waterloo.
You really ought to go register at Time and post that!
Who is this Toure guy? I saw this article yesterday but this clown is just one of many ‘never before heard from’ insulted blacks that will come out against Cain. Grow up Toure, you sound like a 1st grade bully.
