Cain compares himself to Clarence Thomas
Chicago Tribune ^ | November 4, 2011 | Robin Abcarian

Posted on 11/06/2011 10:37:58 PM PST by TBP

"I have been called 'Uncle Tom,' 'sellout,' 'Oreo,' 'shameless," Cain often tells his overwhelmingly white audiences as he seeks the Republican presidential nomination. "In the words of my grandfather," he said last spring in Iowa Falls, "I does not care. I does not care."

Coming forward might also prove there is nothing to the agreement. Those that had legit. reasons to speak out on Clinton took the insults the libs sent their way, but they came out with what happened to them anyway...

If the allegations were just dumpster diving for a payoff, that would become obvious. There are women that if you look at them they scream harassment. Men can also have insults thrown at them by fellow employee's or employers, but they cannot yell harassment, they get a tougher hide and keep on truckun...

When my kids were young and come home complaining about what some jerk said, I told them the world is full of arse holes, learn to deal with it now, cause out in the world you will find more and have to work with some of them...Subjective remarks of what is harassment doesn't carry much weight with me...

If a woman is out in the business arena, learn to handle yourself or go back home. Some think they should be able to live in a little bubble of** I am special, don't hurt my feelings**...

Well, YOU certainly seem to “know” something I don’t. He said, she said, and long ago past the statute of limitations. - And I really doubt YOU “know” anything for sure either. To a staunch “feminist”, looks don’t matter . . to THEM that is. To most men, looks matter. Sad to say.

I don’t blame the women for not wanting to talk about it because they all too often :were asking for it.” Happened to a friend...the cops treated her like she was the criminal...he had hidden in her apt. She had presence of mind to offer the rapist a glass of water and got his fingerprints.

The NRA of which Cain was CEO chose to settle the claims of SH for money. It doesn’t prove he did anything but it does make the electorate curious about the charges. That curiosity will not be satisfied with “I didn’t do anything, end of story.”

The difference is the number of accusers and that they have contemporaneous corroboration of their claims. Thomas had one accuser who followed him to another job. SH claims rely on proving a pattern of behavior. That is what Paula Jones’ lawsuit against Clinton was about and why we learned the names of more women over time.

This is a routine practice. It’s much cheaper than litigating, even if you’re completely innocent and the litigation is completely frivolous and bogus. The charges were investigated and found to have no substance.

It was a severance package, not a settlement. And one of the two filed another similar complaint three years later at her next job. A serial complainer. (Maybe she needed more money.)

Cain says he didn’t do anything and there has been no evidence produced to say that he did. End of story.

they have contemporaneous corroboration of their claims.

They say that, but they have produced nothing to support it. Why would anyone believe that such corroboration existed?

In 2000, Roy Innis was New York State Chairman for Alan Keyes for President.

I’m waiting to see your conclusive evidence Herman Cain is not a natural born citizen of the United States of America.

What kind of drivel like that proves anything? You are a delusional man.

Do you or do you not have proof that Cain was not born a natural citizen? Any documents that he was born elsewhere? I fake birth certificate? Incorrect data on his parents? Tax records? Property tax records? Census data?

I’m actually surprised you haven’t been banned. You’re a nut job.

I know Niger is not a lefty, I like what he says, I wasn't too sure about his father tho. I readily admit I may have been mistaken on his father.

I had the honor of hearing Alan Keyes years ago when he spoke at my son's church/school. It was a small Evangelical church, not a big rich one and he spoke on the value of christian teaching.

In person he is very polite and charismatic. shook his hand and enjoyed his talk My son just wished he'd have spoken out on some politics but he was there to speak of christian education and didn't weave into any other direction....very interesting man.

Liked him before I net him and liked him more after listening to him...
