Perry Operative Chris Wilson Accuses Cain Of Sexual Harassment…To Politico, Of Course
The Conservative Review ^ | 11/2/11 | Marcus Porcius

Posted on 11/07/2011 8:56:35 PM PST by truthfreedom

Oh, and remember how in the title of this post I called him a Perry operative? That’s because if you go down almost to the very end of the story, there’s this minor detail:

Wilson is a Rick Perry supporter and does polling for a Super PAC that supports the Texas governor’s presidential bid.

Wilson does not work for Perry; he works for a PAC that supports Perry, among others. That’s what PACs do; you don’t seem to be knowledgable of what PACs are and how they function under the laws and regulations that govern them. And then there is the complete lack of any proof that Wilson was the source of the Politico story. As I said you seem incapable of logical thought.

I get it, you’re trying to change the story.

This is the story.

You don’t seem to be able to deny this story, but you want to talk about something else.

Let’s talk about something else.

How about blaming everyone under the sun, starting with the women, moving on to Perry, everyone who’s ever known Perry, Gingrich, Romney.

Why are you (and the Cain campaign) trying to deflect Cain’s problems onto the person or person you think leaked them?

Cain has somehow, perhaps unfairly, been accused of some stuff. But the women didn’t accuse him (at least not currently — the women were involved in accusations against him over ten years ago, they had nothing to do with the story Politico wrote.

Politico is a liberal rag but we still don’t know who is responsible for the leak. You’re trying to blame a person you call a Perry Operative, but he had nothing to do with the original story and simply answered questions about what he’d seen and knew.

If Cain is proven innocent, fine. But there are some questions in people’s minds now. We’ll see what happens.

You have changed the story. The story you are speaking of where Wilson spoke to Politico was many, many stories after they did their first story. The question being addressed by all the commentators has been who was the source of the first of the Politico stories, which ultimately numbered over a hundred about Cain and the allegations in question. You seem to be confusing the later story, many stories in Politico after the first one, when Politico spoke to Wilson, with the original politico story. As to the first Politico story: there is no proof whatsoever that it came from Wilson. You seem to be changing the story by asserting that Wilson’s speaking to Politico well after the first story on Politico about the allegations against Cain is what is at issue and thus deliberately confusing the later story when Politico spoke to Wilson with the first story which initiated the Politico chain of over one hundred stories. Again, there is no proof whatsoever that Wilson was the source of the first Politico story about the allegations of sexual harassment against Cain.

all the decent campaigns stayed away from the story. some said something like “sexual harassment is bad”.

Wilson could’ve said “it wouldn’t be right to talk about this”. And he would’ve been right to say that.

But he went on radio to spread the rumors. Which is what a scumbag does. He even went as far as to say that it would destroy Cain’s campaign. Which is what a scumbag would say.

Have you noticed how many Perry supporters get banned from FR for acting like scumbags? And how almost every post they make has a personal insult somewhere in it?

The evidence just continues to accumulate that Perry and the Perry campaign is just 100% scumbag.

Are you saying that Wilson was not telling the truth about what he saw? There is no evidence of that. How is saying what you saw spreading dirt if you saw it and heard what was said? What is the “dirt” that you say he spread? As I have told you that what Wilson said and other stories were spreading in Washington gossip circles from the time that Cain was at the National Restaurant Association on.

No, I haven’t. Most Perry supporters are paragons of virtue compared to you and many of your cohorts.

Go on a Perry thread sometime and you’ll see real nastiness.

I haven’t been nasty to you. I question your facts and your judgement and your decency in attributing things to Perry that he has not done.

Perry has refused to comment on the situation at all. It was in the Dallas Morning News today.

Stop prevaricating and people will stop challenging you on it.

What??? Do you walk to work or carry your lunch?

You obviously missed the point.
It is a fact that Chris Wilson is a paid consultant for the Perry campaign. With that known and you were a contractor for the Perry campaign;

Would you go making public statements about anything you could not prove without checking with the very people you are contracted with?
