“Sourcing for the settlement story”? O.K. Where are the financial records? Who are the accusers? Where are they?

Last I heard Mark Block is NOT running for gNOpig candidate.

So I want to hear what Cain 666 is going to say about HIS campaign manager.

“HE DOESN’T KNOW, I will only talk to him when I finish this Sim City rescue plan”

Gawd, I really despise liberals… dusting off the Anita Hill playbook.

Sources to be revealed come January 2013, I am sure.

Don’t blame liberals for his behavior.  PS.  You compared him to Clarence Thomas…aka Long Dong Silver.

Its pretty disgusting, but also pretty normal for liberals.  Even a made up hint of being flirty is a huge scandal if you are conservative, but you can have actual misbehavior by a democrat and the only place you’ll ever hear of it is Fox News.    Over the weekend I heard several reports via xm radio where the apparently liberal reporters were all but asking for a woman to come forward and make these claims.  They don’t care who the women are, care even less if its true, they just want to put someone on TV to say they were injured by Cain’s behavior.   Meanwhile, in the 90′s the President was getting ‘serviced’ in the oval office – but they don’t want to talk about that… 

You want to see Obama’s birth certificate, and check his junk to see if he’s circumsized (that Muslim bullshit), but a story about a scandal in Can’t's ( I mean Cain’s) background is considere off limits. Damn you teabaggers are S-T-O-O-P-I-D ( spelle phonetically for you teabaggin’ home scoolers).

“I really despise liberals . . . ”

And your loathing for your fellow americans (half the electorate) shows just how hate-filled you are. We find you funny, sad and pathetic, but we could never HATE you for being so damn S-T-O-O-P-I-D!

Notice the difference in the headline here on Mediaite compared to the one at Real Clear Politics.

~~~Block: “Cain Has Never Sexually Harassed Anybody, Period. End Of Story”~~~ RCP

~~~Cain Campaign Manager: Not Aware Of Cash Settlement Relating To Harassment Charges~~~Mediaite

No difference whatsoever! /s
 

They are not charges.  They are complaints.  Unspecified complaints from alleged victims who remain anonymous. 

Sexual harassment plaintiffs are not protected by rape shield laws in civil lawsuits.  The Politico story names about half a dozen people, but refuses to identify the plaintiffs for “privacy concerns.”  If the plaintiffs have a privacy right, doesn’t the alleged harasser, who admits to nothing and is publicly accused of nothing, also have privacy rights?  Or does the existence of resolved complaints void his or her privacy right?

Sexual harassment is a sensational allegation.  I still don’t see how Politico justifies keeping the identities of the women anonymous and refusing to detail the conduct that led to the settlements.  I want to know their ages, their races, their jobs, their direct responsibility to Cain, and whether they’re de facto prostitutes or outright prostitutes (I know such has never been heard of in Washington, DC).  I can’t determine who is right until I know all the facts. 

Why does Politico require that we supplant their judgment for our own?

The media are being overwhelmingly kind to Cain.  At this point all major networks are on the story, including Republican friendly Fox… yet all seem to be holding back in the hopes that the Cain campaign might organize a respectable response to a question he had to know was coming.  This just shows that far from ready for prime time… Cain is unable to piece together a simple pilot for those eager to produce his show.  

You only know what “Limbeck” tells you about liberals. Because you’re not smart enough to debate us in person. You are nerds, bigots, cowards, and idiots. You are the bleach stain on the fabric of wonderfully diverse and ever-evolving Republic. BEGONE! POOF!

Happy Halloween everyone! 

maybe he is innocent, maybe not

Take an English comprehension class and LEAVE the coyotes alone.

That is BEFORE you jump to jerk off to the defense of another widdle gNOpig.

a) Block [STATEMENT] NEVER did x.
b) Block [I am NOT AWARE of x]

So, Kreamer, if YOU ARE NOT AWARE how could you put your lying arse one the line sayin’ “NEVER”

Got a guy in office now who was never examined like he should have been . With his shady past and many dark secrets , crooked deals , criminal friends , etc. , he should never even be admitted to the White House on a tour . He had the media blocking for him continuously and to this day .

As far as Cain and every candidate , put everything on the table and look at it and get it over with .

I am your Huckleberry, care to debate something right now? Like the liberal slant of the coverage so far on this or maybe something else? Come on, maybe we can debate whether or not you have the intelligence to defeat a rhesus monkey in a Socratic style debate.

I will start the debate with 3 simple Socratic questions.

What do you think?
Can you beat a rhesus monkey?
Ever have an original thought?

Back to you.

I take you have never heard about the great state of Nevada?

Can you fix your grammar in your comment? I am having a hard time understanding you.

By the way, those are the two headlines EXACTLY copied from here and over at RCP. Do you not understand basic English?

Perhaps a “respectful” response would be:

1.  When did this happen?  (sometime during the 90’s doesn’t cut it.
2.  Where did this “expose” come from?
3.  Why does anyone have to defend themselves over some vague (beyond stupid) allegations of 
“well it wasn’t sexual but his hand actions made someone (who) uncomfortable?

Seriously dude,  how do you defend yourself against a smear?

It’s pathetic.

Bring FACTS and PEOPLE with the facts (not heresay) and let’s deal with it or kill the story.  

Does your rant have anything to do with this story?

p.s. if you pronounce stupid as STOOPID then your freaking stupid (and uneducated).

p.p.s.  You want to check out Obama’s junk?  What the hell kind of pervert are you?

TRIG IS NOT SARAH PALIN’S BABY!!!!!

Better luck next time, freaks.

You mean United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

Suck on it.

You’re the first person I’ve ever heard suggest that they want to see Obama’s crank. Congratulations.

You know that circumcision is not nearly limited to Muslims, right? Hey, maybe he’s a secret Joooooooo!

p.p.p.s  What a surprise that this “story” surfaced and you brilliant wonder, calim they’re being “kind” to Cain!

If they were being kind to Cain, they would have waited to talk about this story when there is one, instead of freaking rumors.   

uh…uh…uh….RACIST!!!1!!!

Come on, David. You’ve seen this thing write. Why would you even ask a question like that? Of course it doesn’t understand basic English. ;)

With unemployment above 9%, I bet this story goes nowhere.  All Cain has to do is say “jobs” and this crap looks silly.

Besides, you can’t sexually harass a restuarant employee any worse than the restaurant manager, the chef, and half the bartenders already have.  And female restaurant employees get it worse.

Let’s see here. Hit piece is published late Sunday night. First thing Monday morning, the Cain campaign is issuing a full throated denial.

Totally not ready for prime time.

Genius.

Cain never really sexually harassed anyone…he was simply trying to engage the women in a discussion of his 69-69-69 Plan.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Each network is currently forming a version of the story.  Todd obviously spoke to Block with knowledge gleaned from his assorted contacts working the story.  Todd has information and questions he ignored…. he tossed a softball question so that Block could establish a defense (whether innocent or guilty a defense is needed at this point)… in essence a “How do you plead?”… the answer… “We need more time to decide”.  If Cain had any political acumen he would have prepared for this… understanding as he should that the Republican mainstream always decides the candidate… the Tea’s only used for fanatical energy.  

America depends on its dope smoking, cokehead community organizer with the white America-hating faith! How else are we going to have a fundamental transformation into socialism and equal misery?

It’s a fact of life in any business today that you’ll get lawsuits. From disgruntled fired workers to con artists who know that insurance companies will settle whenever they can….regardless how ridiculous the complaint. In this case I look at the settlements, low five figures, that speaks volumes. These were crank cases paid to go away. If you were truly sexually harrassed by the head of the NRA, yor lawyer isn’t letting you fade away for five figures. A little reporting on how often these lawsuits come up would have been nice.

He was just trying to get an Obama/Larry Sinclair thing going only without the cocaine or the homosexuality.

Oh yeah? Eggplant Parmesan!

I’ve always said that it’s amazing to me that Republican’s EVER get nominated with the corrupt, liberal media openly cheerleading for the left.  If the media were actually fair and balanced, I doubt a liberals would ever get elected. 

“was not personally aware of any cash settlement relating to sexual harassment charges to Mr. Cain,” = “full throated denial”

It is genius to convert the concept of equality into a servant of the will.  

Yes, because thats how things work…The default media stance is pensive caution…

Well so far this is typical as it seems nobody has really shown undeniable proof of what this or is not.comments coming from Cain ans his people suggest something is there but exactly what we don’t know.

And most of all we do not yet know if whatever this is is enough to derail his campaign.

But you know what?I hope it does.Cain has never been the likely candidate despite the sometimes good polls.He never would have survived the process to the point of the nomination.If this ends his run it clears up the situation and the focus will be Romney which will completely end the GOP guessing games and the Dems ability to capitalize on that.

Once it clearly becomes Romney Versus Obama it becomes a real choice,real issues,real differences and a real choice for voters.

Yes, he played the race card quite nicely at his hearings.  As for him being a justice…the legal world is laughing out loud.

It’s hard to believe that Herb’s own campaign manager doesn’t know that Herb is a sexual predator!! 

They are making it up as they go. He’s on the Sarah Palin campaign track of divert attention and manipulate the media.

I love it when conservatives play the  race card.

You’re a hell of guy Steven! Truly.

Wow- so Cain was a Democrat in the ’90s. Who knew?

Wow- then Clinton must be a serial rapist!

 Aw there’s that whine.

Go watch Fox and STFU

Not whining, just stating the FACTS. 

If I may quote your catchphrase, Pablo: “You lie.” 

You should stick to the facts, rather than wild accusations.  Name one time, just one time, that Barack Obama has mentioned how his personal faith involves hating white Americans.  When has Obama demonstrated his raging inferno of hatred and contempt for Caucasians?  You can’t.  It’s like when people said Bush was racist, or Clinton was a misogynist.  

Instead of commenting on the many political and social issues where you passionately disagree with Obama, you end up looking like a lunatic.  Ranting about your discoveries of Obama’s evil, dark past.  Next, you will be saying he is the Antichrist.

Rather than regurgitating half baked conspiracy theories, why don’t you stick to the facts.  Or, be funnier.

Fact is you’re Whining.

From Politico…

Karl Rove said Monday that Herman Cain has failed to properly respond to the POLITICO report that at least two women accused him of inappropriate behavior, saying he needs to say “yes or no.”
“He’s
not denying but he ain’t responding and that’s not the best place to
be,” Rove said on Fox News. “If these allegations are not true, say they
aren’t true and put it behind you. If not, better get everything out
sooner rather than later because in a situation like this, if there is
something there, that something’s going to come out.”
Asked whether he considered the Cain campaign’s
response to the allegations as sufficient, the former George W. Bush
strategist answered “no,” criticizing the decision to evade questions
about whether there were ever any financial settlements with the women.
“I think Geraldo had it right last night — you simply can’t say go
talk to the National Restaurant Association and refuse to answer the
question, ‘Were there any monetary settlements involved in these
things,’” Rove said, referring to Fox News host Geraldo Rivera’s phone interview
with Cain spokesman J.D. Gordon Sunday night hours after the report was
first published, in which Rivera repeatedly asked whether there had
been any cash settlements.
Rove added, “You can’t simply say go ask, go talk to somebody else.
You either need to say yes or no. And if no, say no immediately. Say
absolutely or not and get on with it. But if you’re sitting there saying
go talk to somebody else, it’s not going to help you.”

Too bad he’s a republican now Steven.

Suck it hard.

Child, the legal world is dealing with United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. And Joe Biden is a racist.

That’s very silly of you, Jasper Danigga.

Vapor doesn’t require a defense. Where’s the beef?

Pensive caution doesn’t entail running stories without any named sources.

What part of “Let me tell you that Herman Cain has never sexually harassed anybody, period. End of story.” do you not understand?

Politico claims, in their story, to have disclosed the name of one of the women to the Cain campaign. Herman Cain is named because that is what makes it a story. The story is about potential misconduct of Herman Cain. There is no journalistic reason to reveal the names of the women, who probably had nothing to do with the leaking of this story, at this point.

20 years in Rev. Hatey’s church. You don’t adopt a man like that as your spiritual mentor if you don’t find yourself agreeing with him.

Give me the last opinion that he wrote.  He hasn’t cause he can’t think for himself.  Yes, he’s and idiot like you.

Sarcasm… Drink some coffee Pablo, smoke a square, whatever you need to get your head on straight. Your thinking slowly today.

Seems Karl Rove thinks otherwise…

AAAAAWWWWWWW SHUCKS!

No. He most decidedly is, and you conspiracy theory folks need to back off this. It’s disgusting.

Once it
clearly becomes Romney Versus Obama it becomes a real choice,real
issues,real differences and a real choice for voters.

YEP

Center Right – OBAMA
Center Left – ROMNEY

Don’t get me wrong… I find the “beef” less interesting than innability to make a hamburger patty… Much less grill a steak to order. If he can’t handle this, how will he defend when embroiled in the coming campaign finance scandal?

Well, he still has a shot of getting nominated because he is not running against Democrats. Maybe we should give media a break until facts fully come out, truthfully I thought this is the kind of thing Perry’s new advisors would leak to Politico because lets face it, Cain has taken Perrys support. So Perry may have advantage to this story getting out at this time.

Proof?
Links please.

See it don’t take much to bring your racist bile out Steve! That was so easy!

Next!

Pablo thinks? NOT A FREAKING CHANCE OF THAT! LOL

Remember how aggressively the corrupt, liberal media went after John Edwards?  Oh that’s right, they didn’t!!  Only after the election when the Enquirer jumped on it.  Nope, no bias here!

Giving Herb ten (10) days to respond seems pensive caution to me.

Maybe whining passes for “facts” over at Fox News, but here, not so much.

In a sexual harassment context, “full throated” is a pure choice of words, and I am sure Herb wishes you hadn’t defended him in those words. In any event, the denial is far from firm and unusually tepid.

RIGHT ON!
2008 strategy

You go girl.

what?

You make absolutely no sense.

Just heard Cain on Fox.  

In other words, you’re giving us the Readers’ Digest Abridged version? Not at all surprised that is your favored genre.

Liberal media whine!

DRINK!!!

HAHAHAHA
good one Pablo
answered sexual harassment charges with a FULL THROATED denial.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

If you don’t think this came straight from Willard or Tollbooth you’re more the Delusional Denying Dingbat than I thought you were.

You meant Ted Haggard/Mike Jones. 

Easy to make that mistake when you live in a fact-free media bubble. 

No, it’s Conservative Victimization Syndrome, pure and simple.

Lol!! I’m not going to defend Clinton for not being able to keep his pecker in his pants… though, you and you Republicon friends will defend Herb Cain’s actions until your dying breath!!

And what actual investigative work have you done that shows Politico’s reporting to be a “hit piece”?

We’ll wait. [...Foot tapping...]

I hear it was the 68 68 68 plan.

Slower than usual? That’s a scary thought, even for Halloween. 

So no example of Obama’s hatred of Caucasian Americans?  Well, keep trying. 

Oh, by the way:  If Obama is out to destroy White America, what policies or plans has he put forward to subjugate Caucasians?  Has he been seen refusing to shake white voters hands?  How about appointing less white officials to key positions in the executive branch?  If what you believed about Obama were a reality, and not just your irrational fear, than you would have more evidence than just “He knew a guy for a long time who said a bad thing.”

I bet you will not come up with one example of white citizens who has had a harder life due to Obama’s hatred for their skin color.  

the king of links has not heard of this
In Arizona, presidential candidates will have to provide proof of birth – or circumcision

Which has very little to do with this thread ….

Lets play “Lets make up a tiny story into a major one, because the liberals are so stupid they will beleive it” game

Cain just denied it on Fox, but here comes the weeks of “let’s milk this story up”

No need to scream. You’ve already convinced everyone that you’re a wing nut. 

Now that Herman has issued a “full throated” denial… let him have a week to prepare for the campaign finance controversy swirling around his campaign. 

 ”If the records accurately reflect what occurred, this is way out of bounds,” said a Washington, D.C.-based election lawyer who advises many Republican candidates and conservative groups on campaign issues. The lawyer asked not to be identified because of those affiliations.

Thomas writes plenty of opinions, fool.

http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/author.php?thomas

I doubt it was the last one he wrote, but a recent huge one was McDonald V. Chicago. It’s a barnburner, and he’s absolutely right.

Your real name is Steven? If you’re going to talk to yourself, you don’t need to type it out and share it with us.

Is that the one where he gets found out to have disabled the basic credit card verification security measures so that he can accept illegal and anonymous donations?

What actions are those? Explain them, please.

I looked up their named sources. It took no time at all.

Pablo,

No… this one is real.
http://www.jsonline.com/watchdog/noquarter/state-firms-cash-to-herman-cain-may-breach-federal-campaign-tax-laws-132898423.html

Oh, I can find you thousands of oil rig workers, coal miners and plant employees, Philadelphia voters and others, but I think I’ll just give you Henry Juszkiewicz.

No, I meant Obama/Larry Sinclair. Who’s Ted Haggard?

 Thanks for posting another unsourced article.

I have sources that say you date underage girls. I have other sources that say you cheat on your taxes and are in huge to a bookie.

How do you respond?

That’s an interesting response to a news article.  Do you spit on the mailman when he delivers the mail?  If so, your parents failed you considerably.  

“Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that tends to create a hostile or offensive work environment.”

Stick to those long, rambling comments you typically post, dummy…humor is not your forte.

“There is no journalistic reason to reveal the names of the women”  That’s a lie.  Let’s find out who they are and what they complained about.  It’s only fair.  Are they floozies who’d do anything in trousers provided they were white?  Were they women who actively supported Cain’s opposition in the election to lead the association?  Who are they?  What was their complaint?

Why must only the public be kept in the dark about the details?  You know it’s the top gossip news in Washington, and all the details are known to everyone there.  The public wants action on the economy, and Washington gives them sensational innuendo with no facts instead.  It’s the classic example of dysfunctional politics.

Where’s your birth certificate?

Is it something about a birth certificate?

I guess you don’t get it, how often don’t you get it?

Another name for the 68 plan is the Clinton plan.

But having no sources regarding someone’s BIRTH CERTIFICATE is perfectly reasonable!!

Oh. So it’s ok for him to do it, is what you’re saying.

SICK

I see you say the same things in all the BIRTHER THREADS

oh wait….

VITTER

SANFORD

NUFF SAID

Still not funny.

TOTALLY MICHELLE!!!

WHERE WAS FOX WITH THE EDWARDS STORY?!?! WHY DID FOX NOT REPORT ON THE STORY UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE?!?!

WHY WAS FOX SLEEPING ON EDWARDS?!?! Aaaaaaaaaaaaa

you appear to have great difficulty posting under the right story.

What exactly did I say?

Hmm, chances are there was sexual harassment charges – possibly found to be false or he never admitted to them, or there was no evidence except the word of the accusers. Happens all the time in the corporate world. Cain is saying that the harassment never happened, but not the charges.  It is a hard place to spin from. If the women received a settlement it is not necessarily an admittance of guilt, many companies avoid sticky long drawn out lawsuit by getting the accusers to take a cash settlement. One that usually requires a level of confidentiality. These women may have broken that part of their settlement -that is why they remain as an unnamed source.
This should be interesting to watch play out.

You chuckled, I know you did.

I found the link interesting and it made sense to me, Greg.  How much did Cain know?  It remains to be seen.

How do you respond?

Probably not with a cash settlement.

I’ve worked in business for a long, long time and haven’t been sued for sexual harassment once.  At least not that I remember.

I don’t understand the part where he paid money to settle a case as Chuck Todd says he did.  Can you explain that part to me?
