I'm more influenced that Cain played into the liberals hands by jumping on the N*****head rock lie about the Perry's hunting lease. Cain made a judgement without any fact...just rumor.
I question his judgement now...will he react to any/all racial accusations/comments?
ALL black Americans (IMO) can be excused for "jumping to conslusions" about the N word. YES, they should look for "facts", context, what have you. But it would be intellectually dishonest for anyone to say that the N word isn't a "hot button" or a racist reference, per se. What else (in context) about Mr. Cain would make any right-thinking conservative believe he's quick to jump on the "race issue"? NOTHING, that I can see. And I say that as a conservative who is still undecided about whom I will support.
Is this one, narrow, "old" story REALLY enough that we should dismiss Herman Cain out of hand, or is it more likely being used by a biased media to inflame conservatives? Hmmmmm..... I wonder.
