Herman Cain, who spent Monday denying that he sexually harassed two women while he headed the National Restaurant Association, late in the day offered details of an incident with a female colleague that led to allegations of inappropropriate behavior. Also, for the first time, the 2012 presidential candidate acknowledged that he knew about a settlement that was offered to one of the women.
Byron York of the Washington Examiner had details of what Cain said in the interview wtih Greta Van Susteren, which will air tonight on Fox.
“My general counsel said this started out where she and her lawyer were demanding a huge financial settlement…I don’t remember a number…But then he said because there was no basis for this, we ended up settling for what would have been a termination settlement,” Cain said in the interview, as reported by the Washington Examiner. “Maybe three months’ salary. I don’t remember. It might have been two months. I do remember my general counsel saying we didn’t pay all of the money they demanded.”
Cain’s statement represent a reversal from what the Republican said only hours ago, when he denied that he knew about any settlement that was reached after the claims of sexual harassment were made.

Hey, can I have them? I'll gladly display both!
How do you “forget” a sexual harassment settlement?
What part of “was not aware of a settlement” does anyone not understand. That was his original statement which could easily have been true.

It's like what they did to Perry and the rock.
Just the same let us recognize the Post et al for the lying bastards that they are and not eat our own. Cain is a good guy as is Perry.
If so, why would you want him for President?
Want who for President?
Economic situation is so different today. When Reagan started out in 1980, national debt was small compared to GDP. So Reagan could afford to sign huge spending bills. Actually spending tripled during Reagan’s 8 years. And tax revenues doubled.
Today, as I am sure you are well aware, debt & deficits are out of sight. We need a man who will not make political accommodations. Cain has done it many times during his business career. He has made hard decisions. He knows first hand, how a main street business succeeds or fails. None of the others running has that depth of experience or record.
That sort of thing happened a lot in the '90s.
This is a woman?
In the memo portion of the check, write "Politico"

You can say to a woman, "you really look great in that dress" and to some dumb broad, instead of saying 'thanks' she thinks she is being harassed..
You eat pizza with a fork???
Is she the First Wookie’s first cousin in drag? Evil eyes!
Changing what he says hour to hour is just not good.This isn't the first time. He "walks things back" a lot.
That's bad.
He's got to stop doing that.
He's killing himself.
This so-called allegation is a pile of stinking BS.
But he's turning it into anti-Cain gold. All by himself.
Now his memory has been jogged and he has more info and is bringing it out. Does not seem like any effort to "hide" anything or hold anyhthing back.
I'm in the Cain camp at this point. They are going to only get worse in their attacks against the man.
I’d give her a Coke bottle.
Who else would have reason to fabricate a lie against Cain?
