WaPo: "Inexplicable: Cain rides high" (Wapo misses the good old "macaca moment" days.)

Yup! Completely brainwashed.

[Grampa Dave]

They are suprised that their part in the MSM electronic lynching attempt of the "uppity" Cain hasn't worked. Cain is still ahead in the polls instead of their pretty boy Rino and bringing more bucks each day.

Did Brit Hume or Coulter write this?

"...That incredibly tone-deaf move comes as Cain stands accused of sexual harassment and sexual assault. "

I believe the story that Gloria Allred was peddling met the definition of sexual assault. Fictitious as this charge may be, I believe the reporter was correct in his statement.

What is "incredibly tone-deaf" is the MSM consortium flogging accusations without substance and merit to destroy a man simply because he is a conservative and a black man. This reporting is just shameless character assassination.
Same method they followed to go after Mrs. Palin, because she was a conservative and a woman. The Left-wing Dems and MSM folks go after those that stray from their plantation with a vengeance bordering on madness.
Most people see this for what it is, which is why this 'character assault' isn't taking traction.

Seriously? When did that happen?

I guess the boyfriend didn’t appreciate being with a lying biotch...

Now that you pointed it out, must be a gust of wind levitated her wig? The wig hair is on her shoulder, so not likely it is person behind her.

"His sense of humor leaves a lot to be desired. The funny fella yesterday even made a joke about Anita Hill, whose accusations of sexual harassment against then-Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas took the issue out of the shadows. That incredibly tone-deaf move comes as Cain stands accused of sexual harassment and sexual assault. "

A couple of days after the first sexual harassment news broke, I jokingly posted that there was nothing to the accusations as the supermarket tabloids did not have anything on their front pages about it.

I have since been to the supermarket three more times. Most recently about an hour ago.

The tabloids still have nothing on the sexual harassment story.

BTW - did you know that Ch(it)az Bono only has 4 years to live?

Poor Mr. Capehart is all wee-weed up.

Jonathan Capehart is a true jackass.

Hmmm, this woman and her son moved in February from Mundelein, IL to Glenview. He claims he wasn’t supporting her when they lived together and he’s not supporting her now. He specifically states she has income coming from the boy’s father in the form of child support. No other form of income is mentioned. So, I Google Mundelein and Glenview and found what I suspected (being an Illinois native myself...)

Mundelein, IL

Per capita income: $26,280
(median: $71,500)
Home value: $
(median: $225,200 (2005))

Glenview, IL

Per capita income: $73,384
(median: $80,730)
Home value: $699,500
(median: $536,817)

There’s money coming from somewhere, and it’s been for a while, if one takes him at his word. I hope the Cain campaign and their attorney is looking into this.

This must be worrisome. If WaPo, NYT, et al, can no longer pull the plug on candidates at will, their whole reason for existence goes up in smoke.

[N. Theknow]

There is a country and a way of life to save, and it’s about time we not let prurient, as-yet unsubstantiated charges against a candidate, which BTW seem to come up every time a conservative black man gets too uppity to suit the elite, distract us from the larger task at hand.

You know what I was thinking about all this?

It seems like someone decided, "Hey, look we weren't able to stop Clarence Thomas with Anita Hill and her lame pubic hair on the Coke can story. So, let's try white women this time and make up lurid descriptions of a black man groping them."

[keats5]

If I read one more comment about how terrible it is that Cain, “in the midst of a sex scandal,” joked about Anita Hill or Nancy Pelosi, my head will explode!

Are they serious?

They are outraged that Cain isn’t playing the part of the guilty party here and that due respect isn’t being given to Princess Nancy and the women who slung slime at Clarence Thomas!

There was a link to the video (Chuck Goudie of ABC News Chicago interviewing Harwood) on another thread. Then I found this thread. See my post #30 here based on some very quick fact checking of information gleaned from the video. There's a lot of stuff about this woman that needs to be outed.

[Jeff Chandler]

They are so used to Republicans assuming the fetal position when attacked, they don’t know what to do when they pick on someone who fights back.

[jcsjcm]

Try doing a google on sharon bielik gloria allred

Not much coming up??? Did they wipe the internet clean?

[bcsco]

The link to the video is on post #237 of this thread. I don't know what is at the WLS site linked to in the other thread, but this is the ABC site with their own video of the interview with Mark Harwood.

[sanjuanbob]

“Bialek” don’t know if you spelled wrong on this post or your google search.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Ex fiance???

Dammit Cain, now he's a home wrecker. /s :):)

[jcsjcm]

Doh.......

Guess I spelled it incorrect in both places. I’ve spelled it like that all along. Silly me! *headdesk*

bcsco,
Thanks for the links!
