Herman Cain Reacts To Louis Farrakhan Claiming The CIA Did 9/11: ‘And I’m Santa Claus’
This weekend, Nation of Islam anachronism Louis Farrakhan did his thing “for more than three hours” in Chicago, blaming America for 9/11 and warning that assassins are out to get President Obama. It didn’t take long for Sean Hannity to play Six Degrees of Jeremiah Wright with the story, noting that Wright had been photographed with Farrakhan and Sacha Baron Cohen spirit animal Muammar Gaddafi, and had also been photographed with First Lady Michelle Obama. What say you, Herman Cain?
Cain did not believe that Hannity was wrong in connecting the dots from Farrakhan to the White House, and had no surprise about what Farrakhan was up to. “If Farrakhan cannot divide people with accusations… then he has no message and no platform.” He also rebuked Farrakhan’s claim that the disrespect against President Obama was greater than for any President before him, referring the audience to the Media Research Center for every epithet hurled at Bush during the first decade of this century.
The conversation returned again to the 9/11 accusations, and Hannity made the point that the sort of exoneration of Osama Bin Laden Farrakhan promoted was, in fact, being promoted, something that didn’t seem to phase Cain given free speech. Sure, Farrakhan can say the CIA attacked the World Trade Center, he joked, “and I’m Santa Claus! I can say anything!”
