Was the recent attack on Herman Cains presidential campaign a professional hit job? Absolutely, says Herman Cain. And he says he knows just where to look for the guy who did it: At 815 Slaters Lane in Alexandria, Virginia, a low-slung former warehouse in the shadow of a coal plant.

Changes nothing.

You never have shown any evidence that a Perry staffer had anything to do with Cain being accused of this nonsense.
Others have, like that Twitter posting mentioned a day or two ago, and (I think) post #136 this thread ("more on the way" or similar verbiage).
And as far as Anita is concerned, I have been told by people I trust that she is not the reason he decided to run. I am sure she had an influence on the final decision, but he was asked to run by others.
I comprehend that: but the Parade magazine article looked like her speaking in her own words, and not paraphrased. Which is why I said it *looked* contradictory to your claims.
You still dont get it. Blind hatred of what you have read about Rick Perry keep you from seeing that the Dems did this to divide us. Just like you are doing here on FR.
Classic projection tactic.
I was for Palin long before Perry considered running: and then a bunch of Perrywinkles showed up ; and for many of them, despite the 1998-1999 signups, I never recall even having *seen* their screen names before, until a bunch showed up en masse to (let's be honest) blog-pimp and spam Perry all over FR.
And a goodly number of them have been called out and/or banned: and a goodly number engaged in creating fights and dissension and name calling, and ad hominem in response to policy criticisms of Rick.
Not buying your argument for misdirection for a second.
Look earlier in the thread where someone said "this anti-Cain story has Gingrich's fingerprints all over it."
THAT's the mark of a lying sack of scum operative: trash one of your opponents, then point the finger at ANOTHER opponent for causing it.
Cain has spent his time until Polllutico pressing 9-9-9 to the point that other people were making fun of him for saying nothing else: he most pointedly was NOT attacking or backstabbing any other GOP candidate.
Funny how, like Palin, nobody else in the GOP is rushing to defend him when he is accused.
Makes you wonder.
Cheers!
Like hell he is. He is clueless on too many issues and obviously can’t handle the pressure of a presidential campaign.
He’s whining like a 2 year old and blaming everyone else but himself. He knew this was in his past and was given 10 days to get an answer ready and he still hasn’t been able to come up with one.
Herman Cain is nothing close to Clarence Thomas. Thomas actually understands the Constitution, Cain doesn’t.
You can be foolish with your vote all you want. I don’t care to interact with you so please don’t ping me. You showed your true colors on the Palin threads and I really don’t like you nor care to waste my time interacting with you. So good bye.
Others have, like that Twitter posting mentioned a day or two ago
Nothing you said produced any evidence. NONE.
I am not what you called a "perwinkle". I prefer Rick continue as Governor of Texas and have stated so from day 1. But this thing with Cain is not originating from the Perry staff. The Dems are behind this and playing us like a drum.
I would also like to call attention to another thing I noticed this week.
Shortly after Rick Perry gave the speech about taking a sledge hammer and later a wrecking ball to DC, he fell out of favor with the establishment. That in my opinion is why he is being zeroed in on over the Cain nonsense.
I hate dirty politics, and the Dems practice an extremely vile version of it.
And, for that matter, who appears less and less articulate every day.
(That 25-minute New Hampshire speech would be platinum in Axelrod's hands, btw. There are segments where he is fairly channeling the late Paul Lynde of Hollywood Squares.)
Herman Cain is nothing close to Clarence Thomas. Thomas actually understands the Constitution, Cain doesnt.
Cain understands nuclear missiles, Thomas doesn't. And that's good, because that'd be Cain's job as Commander-in-Chief, with his finger on the button. He can let Thomas handle the Constitutional interpretation. (Incidentally, why don't you pick on another Texan, George "Dubya" Bush, for signing the *Unconstitutional* monstrosity of McCain-Feingold on the specious theory that "The Supreme Court will strike it down". Because, you know, they...didn't.)
If you don't like my posting to you, too bad.
You Perrywinkles are the ones who chortle with glee that Cain 'can't handle the pressure" so you have no grounds to complain about being pressed yourselves.
Cheers!
Loyalty is commendable: but recall (in another connection) the lesson of the Exxon Valdez oil spill: those who know the most about a situation, are often too close to be trusted as purely objective. But you can't count on corruption, either.
Exxon knows oil and oil tankers and spills. They're also the ones with the most reason to spin about what the spill really was. But BP knows a thing or two about oil. Were they really lying about the leak in the Gulf of Mexico not being a world-class disaster?
The Twitter post was evidence, but not disposative. Just another (possible) piece of the puzzle.
Cheers!
We will learn their names and their sob stories on CBSNBCCNNMSNBCFOX if he gets the nomination.
If this was Huntsman’s campaign’s fault rather than Perry’s, you Winkles wouldn’t be Winkling so frantically about it.
Politicians are so hyperbole prone that talk about “wrecking” DC would scarcely merit a yawn. “Yeah, Rick, you and what army, ho-hum?”
Cain is more personable than Perry. Which could explain why certain anti-conservative types (Pub or Rat) want to paint him as a monster NOW, rather than waiting for him to get nominated.
Another chapter in the book: "How Not To Handle a Scandal" by Herman Cain.
I suppose the gals who were originally involved in the scandal could have independently come together or invited the support of a completely different party in order to make this stink at this time. A good buddy of mine pointed out that so what if they got $35K hush money, they could be promised $36K talk money and go back on their word and pay back the hush money without blinking.
But if Cain’s instincts are right, then shame on the Perry people for letting this go on.
Look up from your drink and read the title of the thread.
Here it is:
“CAIN SAYS PERRY CAMP BEHIND SEX HARASSMENT LEAK”
If you want make an argument that a thread should not have been posted entitled “Cain Says Perry Camp Behind Sexual Harassment Leak” I suggest you take it up with the person who posted the thread and with every source of communication in existence discussing what is really going on here, not one commenter discussing said titled thread and universally reported subject matter.
Gw, now you’re giving your own opinion rather than allowing Mrs. Perry’s words to mean what they say. Either the quote you copied and pasted is reliable or not. You betray your motive and tell us so much about yourself by adding to it.
Obviously, you have a problem with Texas and Texans. Well, shucks!
Amazing the people that want to blame this on Perry based on nothing at all, but want to ignore what was previously said.
Doggone feminazis, ruining it for everyone!!!!
:P
Yep, agreed. This is about US (We the People) and Them (our would be masters). They hold us in contempt and we likewise reciprocate. Those who would destroy the US (and doing a fair job) are Globalists, Muzzies, and Lefties. They all have the same aim, make We the People surfs out on the plantation. The MSM is far more than complicit.
Of course. Who would defend Huntsman for either type of attack (sexual harassment or dirty politics)?
There’s no history in all of Perry’s campaigns that fit the accusations made against him. Read this report from the Texas Monthly:
http://www.texasmonthly.com/2011-09-01/feature7.php
With the dream of a Romney/Cain ticket in 2012.....careful Herman, Mitt will flip on THAT promise too.
Perry sure does bother you, doesn't he?
Here's a graphic you can just post to get your message across.
It wasn’t “that” part that I was commenting on.....LOL!!
