Cain: ‘Jon Stewart Doesn’t Like Me Because I Am An American Black Conservative’

video
» 96 comments

Herman Cain seems to have no interested in ending his newly-minted feud with Jon Stewart. On The O’Reilly Factor tonight, Cain came out swinging against Stewart again– who initially courted Cain’s wrath by making fun of his claim that bill longer than 3 pages would be vetoed automatically– explicitly stating that, although Stewart’s “Amos and Andy” voice was offensive to him, he wasn’t playing the race card. But Stewart had a problem, he asserted, with him being a “black conservative.”

Cain first began accepting Stewart’s adamant claims that Stewart is “a comedian,” and only a comedian, but that, precisely because of that, “he should have known” the “less than three pages” comment was a joke. “He’s a comedian, and I’m a problem-solver,” he asserted, though he did say that “when he mocks me in the dialect of old Amos and Andy, I think that’s a problem.” When confronted by host Juan Williams over that comment and how it contradicts his assertions that he was playing the race card, Cain argued that it was “some people in the media” who were playing the race card, and that his campaign and his statements were, he said familiarly, “not about color– it’s about content of ideas and it’s about character.”

Ultimately, however, Cain concluded that Stewart’s problem was not with him as a black person, but “Jon Stewart doesn’t like me because I am an American black conservative… he has a bigger problem with that than any race thing.” He added that “I know racism when I see it,” and that Stewart didn’t fit the bill. Williams agreed that black conservatives faced certain problems– “you don’t fit in the box”– though declined to emphasize the race issue.

    1000% correct Herman, and you can expand that to the whole of the Democratic Party!

    For 50 years Democrats have taken the black vote for granted, and left a legacy of welfare, fatherless families and destituted communities in their wake.

    It’s time for the Tea Party & New GOP to EMANCIPATE black America from the stranglehold of their political masters!

    ” But Stewart had a problem, he asserted, with him being a “black conservative.””

    Your place is to always vote for Democrats and we will keep you poor and ignorant so you will only know your place.

  • MadCharles

    Stewart’s just another white democrat racist

  • damien

    Odd, isn’t it. Nobody’s playing the race card yet we’re debating which side is more racist.

  • felixw

    Anyone who doesn’t think the American Left despises black conservatives need merely Google the words “Clarence Thomas” or “Juan Williams” or, yes, “Herman Cain.” True, the Left smears every prominent person on the right nowadays — since smearing is the liberal media’s favorite ideological tactic. (We could only wish they would put as much faith in open debate as they do in character assassination.) But they reserve special vitriol for conservative blacks or conservative women. They think they “own” those groups, and get very angry when an uppity member of a Democrat victim group doesn’t want to be a victim.

  • Colorado_Conservative

    Luv this guy….I wouldn’t hesitate to vote for the right black man!!!

  • Cecelia

    Stewart doesn’t like you because you’re a conservative, Mr. Cain.

    The fact that you’re black is just a convenient little utility for the prime directive of cutting you off at the knees.

  • Nacho

    When Cain was doing his stage act, and making “jokes” as he points out, he was being just as animated as Stewart was when he was in fact mocking him.

    To Cains credit, he did not play the race card like Hannity, Wallace and other conservatives around him are trying to do.

    But, thinking Stewart doesn’t like him because he joked about a silly thing he said is ridiculous, and for Cain to generalize and think he doesn’t like him because he’s a black conservative is just made up bullshit playing a victim of the “liberal agenda”.

    Ok, a couple of things. Barack Obama is the US President, not the leader of the Democratic Party. The current chairwoman of the DNC Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Regarding the Rev. Wright thing, yeah, it’s troubling. I once attended a catholic service in Chicago when visiting family one Christmas morning, and the priest said something to the effect of “Jew killed Christ and their sin continues in the hearts of Jews today”. It was enough for me to vow never to attend that church again (I don’t live in Chicago so it’s not an issue anyway). However, I don’t assume that my family or their neighbors who continue to attend that church are anti-semites by default simply because they heard those words. Get back to me when you have evidence of Obama displaying his hatred of Jews through his own actions, then we’ll talk.

    That’s a fairly dramatic guess. Listen, there are conservatives who are racist. That’s just the way it is. It doesn’t make all conservatives racist, and you don’t have to account for them all. I once dated a girl (also in Chicago) whose father was a proper Obama-hating conservative and also pretty damn open in his racism, and so I find it easy to assume the people who made those comments are proper conservatives. That doesn’t mean I assume all conservatives are racists, just the racist ones.

    btw, since we have another Jon Stewart thread, why not post an EPIC Takedown of Stewart right here?

    Jon Stewart makes horrible point

    Monday, Jun 27, 2011 at 1:58 PM EDT

    Since Jon Stewart was caught claiming Fox News viewers were stupid, even though polling indicates the opposite, he’s apparently attempted to defend himself by pointing out that Fox News has more recorded untruths on Politifact than he does. I think he thought that was a good point. It is not. Why? Here’s a partial list.

    1) Fox News airs around 84 times the programming as Jon Stewart does. Fox News is a network. Not a half hour, four days a week show—they should make more errors. Plus, Stewart spends half of his time interviewing people like Ricky Gervais and Cameron Diaz. Unless he gets the date of a movie release wrong, I’m not sure how he’d make an error there.

    2) Jon Stewart’s show is taped. It’s not live. With a few exceptions, Fox is airing live programming with no net. When they make a mistake its out there. If Stewart makes a mistake, he can edit it out. Though, I don’t know why he’d bother, because…

    3) Jon Stewart’s show doesn’t seem to be regularly fact checked by Politifact. Or anyone else. Why would it be? If they went through his shows with a fine toothed comb like they do Fox News, they’d surely find errors too. But, why would they bother? Who cares if Jon Stewart makes an error? He’s doing a comedy show. Greg Gutfeld does a comedy show and has zero errors on Politifact. Does that mean he’s more accurate than Stewart? (He is, but for completely different reasons.)

    4) The Daily Show is largely a scripted show, which means they have time to fact check it in advance. When someone like Glenn or O’Reilly do actually make a mistake, it’s usually when talking off the top of their heads, trying to remember the details of something they had read previously. Jon Stewart never has to do that, because he’s just reading his material. Remember, after commercials, The Daily Show is doing about 22 minutes of programming per day, four days a week. For that task, this is a portion of their writing staff.

    5) Politifact sometimes does really awful work. That doesn’t mean they don’t do some really great work too. But, are they seriously still standing by this? Reason magazine points out this one. And, if you have a month to waste, go through this list and find out how many times you can call BS on their Truth-o-Meter.

    6) Politifact has a fairly obvious liberal bent. They are not exclusively liberal. They will tell the truth about false claims by liberals. But to say a government health care takeover is the biggest lie of the year is insultingly stupid. The government tells you what must be covered in your plan, requires you to participate, gives you maximums on what you spend, fines you if you’re not covered, decides which treatments are acceptable, forces justification of rate increases, subsidizes the cost of the plans, and forces insurance companies to cover people they don’t want to cover—and that’s just a handful of the 2,700 pages of Obamacare. It might not be Canada, and no—Nancy Pelosi isn’t literally doing the surgery. But, 83 million people were on some form of government health insurance BEFORE Obamacare. Where will we be at the end of this?

    I’m sure there are plenty of other reasons that Stewart’s complaint was idiotic, but I’m getting bored. You get the point. When you think about a guy doing a scripted, taped, ideologically aligned comedy show, four days a week, for a half hour–it’s amazing he could ever be caught in a error by Politifact. But, he did. What’s amazing is that Stewart is so blindly revered by the media, his insanely flawed “Oh yeah, they lie more than me” can pass for anything other than pathetic.

    They are stating a fact. It’s really easy to go on politifacts and see where they say something that you know has been proven. They are left – so what? Don’t use them for facts – go find out the truth. Simple

    They pointed out that Stewart’s program is totally scripted. He doesn’t speak off the top of his head – although he does speak out of other body parts on occasion. Also, the man is a comic – and people are taking his comedic words as gospel. Now that’s scary and stupid.

    Jon Stewart = borderline racist attacking any Black conservative for “being off the plantation”, which is racism in my book

    Herm Cain = charming the pants off of America

    Herman Cain is a racist, sorry to tell ya.

  • BFD

    It was not an “Amos and Andy” voice.

    Jon was doing the voice of a loudmouth wingnut and it was a perfect impression.

    He added that “I know racism when I see it,”.

    Ummm, no you don’t. But I have no doubt you know a pepperoni and sausage pizza when you see it.

  • MBW

    If a Democrat said what Cain said it would be called “playing the race card”.

    Jon Stewart is using the same kind of humor the teabaggers have been using for the last 2 years about Obama.

  • Lolwut

    Stop all the bi-partisan shit.. stop referencing old sh.. and get real.. This guy is stupid. He managed pizza. It has nothing to do with black or white.. He talks like he’s trying to be MLK and wants to be president. He wants lower taxes cuz he’s got alot of money. Period.

    That seems to be his entire platform. He has no image of the future. Obama, HAD an image of the future, but it failed. Why? BECAUSE THE POTUS DOES NOT CONTROL THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT. Why are people so stupid?

    Yea Obama signed a few bills, but they will be reversed when a republican gains office. Why can’t we stop being 2 party? We might as well be Israel and Palestine. Lets just fire rockets into neighboring states when we don’t agree. That would get shit done a lot faster at this point. Failure is our option. Embrace it.

  • Lolwut

    It’s amusing that people talk about JS in politics. Why? Because they are giving him weight. He doesn’t give a sh about “changing the game”. He likes the box he’s in. He makes fun of other news stations. En masse. That’s what he does.

    When news stations and POTUS candidates bring him up or give him room.. That is their issue. They don’t like being made fun of. So lets just give a comedy central host credence?!?!? They are propelling their own demise. Good luck with that. 2 cents/over.

    This is embarrassing, and shameful for a Presidential candidate to be blatantly playing the race card.

    I’m going to ignore you basically saying that Cain is a Nazi… or at the very least, aligned with Nazis (because it’s such a stupid premise, it’s best to be ignored), and move on. Royal… we all know you like commenting on the commenters, and deciding what certain people “must be” and “must believe.” So I’m wondering what you think of my theories on “AmericaSucks.” This is someone who spends a lot of time here complaining, a lot of time on sites where he’s already decided he hates the people “reading,” and lives in a land that he thinks “sucks.” Do you agree that this must be a truly miserable person? What is your analysis?

    You are asking the racist king for an analysis of himself, albeit under a different handle?

    Ok, a couple of things. Barack Obama is the US President, not the leader of the Democratic Party. The current chairwoman of the DNC Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Regarding the Rev. Wright thing, yeah, it’s troubling. I once attended a catholic service in Chicago when visiting family one Christmas morning, and the priest said something to the effect of “Jew killed Christ and their sin continues in the hearts of Jews today”. It was enough for me to vow never to attend that church again (I don’t live in Chicago so it’s not an issue anyway). However, I don’t assume that my family or their neighbors who continue to attend that church are anti-semites by default simply because they heard those words. Get back to me when you have evidence of Obama displaying his hatred of Jews through his own actions, then we’ll talk. That’s a fairly dramatic guess. Listen, there are conservatives who are racist. That’s just the way it is. It doesn’t make all conservatives racist, and you don’t have to account for them all. I once dated a girl (also in Chicago) whose father was a proper Obama-hating conservative and also pretty damn open in his racism, and so I find it easy to assume the people who made those comments are proper conservatives. That doesn’t mean I assume all conservatives are racists, just the racist ones.

    The President of the United States of America is always acknowledged to be the leader of his party.

    And about your statement regarding the priest in Chicago, when I lead meetings one of the things I tell those attending is silence is agreement. If you don’t believe that you are the one with a problem. Keeping quiet for one sermon might not prove that you agree, but sitting through 20 years of sermons sure does to me. There are other churches. Pastors doors are open and you can express your feelings to them. Your position as a fair arbiter of the truth is put in serious question by your acceptance of the fact that President Obama sat listening to racist sermons for 20 years and did nothing but continue to return to the church to listen to more racist sermons.

    Herman Cain, is like his Conservative brother Clarance Thomas an U NCLE TOM. Using a position of power to deny that the Black man has for Centuries being ill treated by this country. Mr. Cain’s I GOT MINE mentality is unfortunate.

    You really should read “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” before thinking that the character in the story is worthy of scorn.

  • justanotherconservative

    mr. cain, jon stewart doesn’t like anybody. that’s his shtick. he is a loser and the only way to compensate is to call everyone else names.

    Yes, it’s must better to play the card LESS blatantly, or via surrogates. That is much better.

    Herman Cain:

    “Asked why more African Americans haven’t joined him at tea party rallies and conservative conventions like the Faith And Family Conference in DC this weekend, the millionaire ex-CEO has a different explanation. African Americans, Cain told TPM, are too poor to tea party.

    “They can’t afford to,” Cain said. “So I think the first reason is economics. If you just look at the sheer economics of it.”

    “If you look at the typical income of a black family of four it’s going to be lower than a non-black or white family of four,” he explained. “Generally speaking on average, white families are much more economically prosperous than black families. So, many black families don’t have the economic flexibility to go to a CPAC conference.”

    His own words–and you’re ragging on Jon Stewart?

    ROTFLMBAO!!!!

    Many White Conservatives are so desperate to look inclusive, they’ll march out ANYBODY, no matter what spews out of their mouths.

    What in the quotes is wrong and who is “ragging” at Stewart? Just simple questions, thank you.

    And white conservatives are not desperate to look inclusive because they do not need to. Whatever may you be talking about?

    Hermain Cain: “Blacks can’t afford to Tea Party”

    Implicit in the statement–The Tea Party is about White people who CAN afford it.

    Never said the quote was “wrong.” I think it’s far too accurate.

  • CAconservative

    It’s painfully obvious that any attack on a Conservative is racially motivated. I’m surprised that Stewart didn’t take to calling Mr.Cain, “step and fetch-it”! The insinuation was clearly there.

  • m_mayhem

    Uncle Ruckus Cain didn’t have a problem with Jon Stewarts bit for three weeks because he knows Stewart was not doing an Amos and Andy voice but simply mocking his animated delivery of his idea (not joke) about short bills. Wallace made up the A&A crap but Uncle Ruckus is more than happy to run with it now.

  • http://none pyrope

    It’s amazing how liberals always show their hatred toward any black conservative by using terms like “Uncle Tom” “House Ni**er” “Uncle Ruckus,” etc. All the while their hatred burns through with their marginalizing remarks “I got mine.” Any black person should never forget that Bill Clinton said of Barack -0bama “ten years ago he would have been serving us iced tea.” Harry Reid called him “clean” and that he has “no negro dialect.” When are black Americans going to learn it is the Democrats who want to keep you “down on the plantation?”

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_H7KOW4E452D4UCX6RZAKCSNIJU 1488HATERNATION

    Cain is just a undercover porch monkey for the repklan party who wants  Obama to win again
    just so they kept the same failed system in place there all in same bed togather vote them all out in 2012
