Nice little circular argument the GOP Establishmentbots have manufactured to keep their slander attack at Cain going.

The only way Cain had to “clear himself” from their slander attack is to violate a legal confidentiality agreement. So his only choice was to break the law thus opening himself to being sued in the midst of his campaign, or let himself be slandered.

Now because he did not choose to break the law to protect himself, he is now being accused by the GOP Establishment slanderbots of “botching the response”

How about this. Accusations have been made. Cain has refuted them. How about the accusers put up even 1 single shred of evidence to back up their accusations?

Rush sure makes the perrybot parrots look silly.

That’s all those trolls can do is keep parroting that line.

It is a fact that there was a suit, and it was settled for a year's pay. Did Cain think that wouldn't come out? It is a fact that on Monday morning, despite knowing this was coming for 10 days, Cain claimed he didn't know there was a “settlement”, saying “I hope is wasn't for much because I didn't do anything”. Then by Monday evening, Cain somehow “recalled” that there was an “agreement” that paid 2-3 months salary to the woman.

Cain's lies are starting to catch up with him.

Nice try Perrybot.

When Rush Limbaugh is telling you your lies are absurd nonsense, you should be listening not clinging to them

So how about repeating the lie, address the facts for a change Perrybot

Call all the names you want, MiniJohnie, you can’t refute the facts. Cain has been caught lying, again.

I have heard nothing of a lawsuit. Only severance packages. Have you discovered evidence of a lawsuit? If so, you should share.

You know, unless Mr. Cain did something with a cigar while in the Oval Office while discussing the mid-east current events on the phone, I just don't care. He is STILL my candidate for pres, and I won't vote for a RINO.

I heard Rush, and he was quite brilliant as usual, and a lot of what he said is, of course, true; however, a few points to be made.

First, for me the worst thing so far was Cain coming out and saying that he knows of no settlement and he only has vague recollections of the whole thing. He then excused himself saying it was an agreement and not a settlement, so he was being honest. Nope...quibbling. He sounded like Lanny Davis there for a minute.

And, as Michael Medved said on his show yesterday, if HE were accused of sexual harassment, he would sure remember all the details about the incident (and I pretty much agree with that).

Then, to point out Democrat examples is not satisfying; we are better than they are, so the point is moot (aside from us complaining about their lack of morals for years).

So, while Cain was my guy in the last 3 weeks or so, I'm afraid he's hurt himself badly.

Don't just keep repeating the lies, provide the evidence to back you us accusations

Cain was told 10 days ago that Politico was “being told by another campaign of accusation against you for sexual harassment”. No facts, no evidence merely an anonymously sourced accusation.

So instead of repeating the lies provide the evidence to back up your accusations.

Sometimes I wonder if ‘aspiring conservatives’ have ‘incidents’ inserted into their records by disgruntled colleagues for the sole purpose of discrediting them in the future.

“You know, I don’t care if he’s done it or not. What troubles me more is the way he’s handling it. This is not presidential. This is not giving me confidence that he knows how to handle these things.” That’s got me scratching my head a bit, because the message seems to be that Herman Cain hasn’t handled a media ambush well and therefore...

“I don’t know, Rush! I don’t think he’s good to go. He didn’t handle this media stuff very well. I don’t think he can be president.”
____________________________________________________

OK so since being accusedf of sexual harassment and how a guy handles that seems to be the current litmus test for president

Lets have the same for Romney or Perry

Im sure both Romney and Perry have worked with women during their life times...

Perry while he was in the military and during his time as Governor

Romney during the time he spent in France as a young man and during his time as Governor and we cant forget his time as boss of the Olympics...

After Monica Lewinski had made passionate love with her new boyfriend, he asked her” was it as good as Bill?”, to which she replied, “close, but no cigar”.

How about looking at it this way. Cain knew what the media would do and suckered them all in. Why should he wage a conventional response so they would know what he’d do. He did what they did not expect. That is vintage Cain.

He counter attacked by accusing Perry of doing this. He has gotten tens of millions in free publicity. He is at record popularity. He is at record fund raising and today it is as if the scandal never happened. The press has gone mum. Perry has been blinsided by Cain’s accusation and has no reponse. The press is killing this lynching becasue the higher they lynch Cain the more popular he becomes.

I’d say he played the suckers in the media and establishment Republicans like a fiddle and he is the winner here in every respect. See:

http://www.teapartytribune.com/2011/11/02/as-the-old-fox-in-the-hen-house-cain-suckered-in-his-accusers-and-is-now-going-in-for-the-kill/

As time goes on he will adorn his walls with talking head trophies and establishment trophies. The more they attack Cain the better he does. Plus we get to see what kind of CEO he is. So far I love what I am seeing.

Cain is the fox in the hen house.

You are correct. I should have said complaint. It was settled before a suit was filed. I am walking back my statement, and I don’t stand by the suit part.

Doesn’t change my point though.
