I'm responding to the Perry people in the same tone and manner they post.

If you punch people, they are going to punch back. Apparently the Perry camp thought no one was going to punch back.

I guess it was to boost customer’s attitudes and therefore make them spend more money which increases the bottom line.

You say that like it's a BAD thing for a company to make money. Do you prefer crappy, moody customer service, or do you just not like capitalism?

Cain ashamed of WHAT? Frankly, it smacked of a plan by Romney to “get” both Cain AND Perry. Only the Perry campaign kept it going after Cain had already moved on. Cain doesn’t play the race card, but it sure got Perry’s supporters in a tizzy thinking he did, didn’t it?

Actually , it could be pretty genius. 25% of the population are smokers. could you imagine if you were smart enough to land 25% of voters in one fell swoop?

Indeed, I agree with you 1000%!

When I look at the preaching of right and wrong, especially what we are being forced to “believe” (they fully believe they can force us) is “right and healthy” that are 100’s of times worse than smoking every was, the hypocrisy just slaps you in the face it is so glaringly clear. Not a smoker, but I do not believe in demonizing legal product, OR infringing on individual liberty. I loved the ad!! But love even more the “take that” to the PC police.

What I get is that he is stating his priorities.

If he were White or Hispanic his conservative values would never be in question.

I'm not black and I relate to him.

If he wants to win in November he needs to let Black Americans know to have conservative values doesn't make them any less “black”.

Beyond the ad, this is one great article. It reads like a good paperback. Go, Cain!

It makes him look like a low-class slimeball; do you suppose that was Mr. Cain’s intent?

No, but to each his own. I thought he was flipping the bird to the left and fishing for small 'l' libertarians.

“It makes him look like a low-class slimeball; do you suppose that was Mr. Cain’s intent?’

How about reaching out to blue-collar conservative Dims - brilliant move.

Now is the time for action! is the name of this 55 second youtube in question. I love it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhm-22Q0PuM.

Smoking Gun? Most Gunwalker Guns Targets of Ban Efforts, but not Wanted by Cartels Excellent summary of Fast & Furious

Hillary Clinton:‘No Evidence’ DOJ Sought Required License to Send Guns to Mexico in ‘Fast and Furious’

Holder’s days as attorney general may be numbered as resignation calls double overnight

Obama's Target List - While calling for civility, Obama demonizes everyone in sight.

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.

Wow! You don't relate to Cain. Great. But just because you can't relate to the man doesn't mean I, and millions of other Americans, can't relate to him.

And being a troll on this thread isn't doing much to enhance your credibility....

I had heard about this ad, but hadn't seen it until a few moments ago...

Brilliant...and I don't even smoke. Love the Cain smile at the end...
