Maybe he knew at the time but doesn’t remember now. Or he may have some vague memories of it. Either way SO WHAT? Not of all us remember every bit of minutiae we experience. Quit playing the gotcha game with the media.
RE: Of course everyone realizes that the National Restaurant Association is just a monstrous lobbying group.

Monstrous is right.
You’re kidding, right? Even Politico (*barf*) said the gesture wasn’t sexual, according to the complainant herself.
You’d trust them more if they forgot they were sued and the accusations were true? Nice logic.
Why do you think getting sued for sexual harassment is so big a deal you should not forget it? How many times do you think high powered execs and their companies get sued? It is frequent and it would be much lot higher if just about every firing didn’t pay bribes (known as severance packages).
Zzzzzzzzz...I don’t give a rat’s ass about any of this...much ado about nothing.
Give me a break. This is a transparent slander by the Left. It is clear evidence that the socialists regard Herman as a deadly threat. As such, it is a badge of honor. It places him in the same category as the great Clarence Thomas, our best ally in the SCOTUS.
Utter can mean "write something" or "speak something" or provide scale to something. Verbal has to do with the "message", not the method. Hieroglyphics, and the throatcutting thing is pretty much an hieroglyphic, are verbal!
The left? Have you ruled out Romney?
You seem to want us to believe that it happens so often to C level men that it becomes so meaningless as to be forgotten.
How many times have you been falsely accused of sexual harassment?
Doesn't matter, debate will most likely rage on here between his supporters and most vociferously from his detractors........time to ditch Cain and start focusing on how to eliminate the rest of the GOP contenders.
FR, doing the work that the Democrap party would likely do if not for us..........
well romney kind of is on the left
Not sure because I forgot. I owned a small business so my business was sued because that is were the money was at. And I cannot remember how many times we were sued. I didn’t elevate sexual harassment above any other type of lawsuit. You seem to think that sexual harassment is worth remembering above all others. It is not. And it is forgettable especially if it is not true and settled cheaply.
“FR, doing the work that the Democrap party would likely do if not for us..........”
No kidding. They probably have buckets of popcorn over at DU right now.
Bzzzzzzzzzztt. Wrong
I once was notified that a certain Ethnic female employee in my Department had filed an EEOC Complaint of Discrimination, and I was interviewed by a Corporate EEOC Complaint Lawyer.
She happened to be the same Ethnicity of said Complainant.
I had interviewed the female, and 12 other employees, regarding an upcoming promotion. I did not choose her, as she was EASILY non-qualified and in the middle of the pack as far as consideration goes. She then filed the Complaint.
In discussions with said Attorney, I was told that it is sometimes cheaper to settle, and avoid the bad publicity, than to fight it. I said "We need to fight this all the way because it's baseless, and it's nearly Extrotion"....
She told me it was not MY decision, and the Company would handle it. They never told me what the settlement was, but years later I heard that they DID pay her off, minimally, right about the time she was FIRED from another location assignment for incompetence.
The Company looks to the bottom line, and the process is rigged such that ALL deep-pockets Employers are targeted with Harassment, Discrimination, etc. complaints, SIMPLY BECAUSE LAWYERS KNOW THEY CAN GET SETTLEMENTS EVEN WHEN CASES HAVE NO MERIT....IT'S A SCHEME AND A SHAM. That's the way the Legal System works.....remember Anita Hill, and she was a phoney and to this day, people who hate Conservatives say that Clarence Thomas got away with something.
“This is a transparent slander by the Left.
The left? Have you ruled out Romney? “
Romney is part of the left...
Don’t get out much? Never worked in a large organization? Never ran a large organization? Never worked in a metropolitan area? Frankly, YOUR take is awfully naive.
And the translation as heard by a liberal ear:
"You're a woman and therefore smaller than me. Know your place."
I can easily imagine a situation like you describe being what happened with Cain. Mark Levin has been making the same points this afternoon. At this point I’m pretty convinced that this is much ado about nothing. The only story is that Cain has fumbled the response somewhat.
You guys are ridiculous hypocrites. If this were obama or clinton or romney or perry you’d be screaming for the facts to be revealed. You know it. We know it.
It also has been reported that Cain warned his staff about the possibilty of this story getting out a few months ago. (Since when can you trust a campaign staff to keep a secret?)
