This whole thing about Cain is going to backfire on O’Bambi and the Demo-Coms as well as the so called conservatives who don’t believe in the “social issues”.

First off if I were black and from “the hood” I’d be very pissed at what BS the Demo-Coms are throwing up at Cain. This is going to resonate in the black community and it’s going to hurt the Demo-Coms.

Secondly the first ones on the GOP side to use the “Cain is toast” mantra were the talk show hosts inclined toward pooh-pooing social issues.

I pulled this from a piece I;m working on about one of them . Now the guy I’m commenting on is a good guy, does a lot of good work, but, like everyone else we all have our short commings...btw like our candidates. In this case he was commenting on Mark Block Cain’s cheif of staff whom has some baggage here and apparently some personal experiences with Sykes with in Wisconsin. Block was the person smoking a cigarette in that infamous Cain commercial

Charlie Sykes a conservative talk show host at Milwaukee’s WTMJ am 620 8:30 till noon daily slot has spent his second day going after Mark Block, Cain’s chief of staff as arrogant ,and inept and warns Block will wind up embarrassing Cain because of Mark Block’s mishandling of funds in a Wisconsin race ..

Sykes opened up on Block 10/26/11. Sykes claimed the ad depicting Block smoking a cigarette was pure ego and the focus would be on Block. Sykes is the kind of guy who doesn’t see smoking bans as a goverment intrusion.

In the 2009 presidential race Sykes endorsed Rudy Giuluiani and I concluded my observations with the following;

Sykes is one of several talk show hosts and RINOS who are infulenced by MSM positions particularly on social issues.When the subject of the Keyes vs Obama race for Illinois US senator, Deleware’s O’Donnell or the Nevada Sharon Angle US senatorial races comes up he will decry the conservative position on social issues these candidates took..

Sykes will never bring up the disasters in California where most of those statewide and US candidates took middle of the road positions and sunk like lead balloons to the bottom of the water closet.”

Posting in FR’s can get to be pretty frustrating. For me it takes time to put together a thoughtfull piece .By the time I’m done if I don’t post fast enough it’s loaded with grammar or typing errors. So I wind up at the bottom end of the first 50 or 100 comments, nany vapid, that contribute nothing or little to the subject.at hand

Can Cain sue his ass now for saying this stuff?

Who is he to know what went on? Is he making it up? or was he told this? If he is repeating what he was told then the “lady” has violated her agreement already

She does not get to keep shoveling crap anonymously even through her lawhole

It is guys like this that give Lawyers a bad name. Have you noticed there still isn’t any specifics on what was alleged, but this Lawyer keeps coming before the Cameras to cite inuendo and get his 30 seconds of publicity.

The restaurant association also released a statement Friday confirming that it had agreed to the settlement with Bennett’s client in September 1999 “without any admission of liability.” The statement noted that Cain had denied the allegations at the time and was not a party to the settlement.

Mr. Bennett provided additional "anonymous but very specific and anomalous details, which can only be done be one of the "TOP WASHINGTON DC ATTORNEYS".

In a very vacuous statement, prepaid by and prepared by the now famous anonymous 5 foot tall, happily married {26 years} woman, she has been given permission by the NRA to come forward and identify herself and speak out, but she would rather stay hidden and throw shit from behind the skirts of this fag attorney, "She stands behind her statements, her lawyer, her anonymity, her original inflated charges, her sexist attitude, her gender, mother , her husband, BUT, INSISTS, Herman Cain is a black, rapist and he looked at and talked with her, and she felt uncomfortable.

I think this attorney is the likely leaker.

I just saw “the accuser’s” shyster lawyer on FNC. The boy ain’t giving it up. Pretty soon, he’ll be filing harassment complaints against Cain himself. The boy sure does like all of the attention he’s getting from the morons in the leftwing “media”. He’s a “hero”.

Why would Cain remember the complaint?

It was filed after he left the National Restaurant Association. NRA would have had no reason to inform him of the settlement They made.

I'm guessing the "several points" have nothing to do with Cain,but with other individuals or situations, sexual or otherwise.

Also,What is an Ivy League graduate (as she supposedly is), doing working for peanuts while living in Washington, DC? Is she completely unambitious, or in love with Restaurants, ......or does she have "issues"???

The statement also said the association has waived a confidentiality requirement, giving Bennett’s client permission to speak about the allegations. Bennett said his client, who has been married for 26 years, does not plan to do so.

noooo... the wretch HAS talked, it simply doesn't want it's name reveled

Until we know exactly what Cain was supposed to have done, why even continue this farce?

The rest of the article contains interesting information:

Here’s the “detail” on his 3rd “accuser,” a woman who also came through the Bennett channel:

“Accounts of a third incident have surfaced in news reports. Bennett, in an interview on CNN on Friday following his news conference, said he received a phone call from a woman claiming that she, too, was sexually harassed by Cain.

Bennett said the woman left a recorded message, but when he returned her call, she had decided not to pursue the matter, he said.”

Now, imagine any Leftist calling Bennett’s office, leaving the message, getting the return call, and saying “oh, never mind.” While there might have been a third case, and that third case might have been more egregious than the first two, the fact is that this is all we have...ridiculous.

If lawyer Bennett leaves his answering machine on over this weekend, he could have another dozen or more such claims by Monday. In fact, if Mark Block thinks of it, he might have a few women make those calls, tape them, and see if Bennett “releases” that information as well.

Here’s why Herman Cain will survive. The Left is trying to make the Koch brothers radioactive to conservative candidates. Here’s how Cain handles it (from deeper in the article):

“I’m very proud to know the Koch brothers,” Cain said. “They make it sound like we’ve had time to go fishing together, hunting together, skiing together, golfing together. But just so I can clarify this for the media — “

Aside: Okay, it sounds like he’s ready to go defensive here, right? Instead, he says”

“This may be a breaking news announcement for the media — I am the Koch brothers’ brother from another mother.”

And suddenly the Koch brothers are no longer a problem...sheer genius, and no Washington insider could possibly have come up with it. They wouldn’t have dared, just like they wouldn’t have had the guts to run the smoking ad.

I used to work in telephone technical support for analytical instruments. One time I spent a week working with a woman from DuPont getting her method working, at the end of which she said something along the lines of "I could never have figured that out" and I said something along the lines of "Women are intuitive."

The head of DuPont human resources called my director and they had a reprimand put in my personnel file.

I don't make small talk well. I try, but I really don't like hearing the sound of my own voice unless I have something important to say. All I was trying to do was attempt small talk.

My bet is that the Cain incidents could have been as trivial as mine.

Timeline:

Cain left his exec post at association June 30, 1999

Accuser filed her complaints sometime in July, 1999.

Cain is no longer at his exec job & has no access to company documents.

Company terminates accuser & writes her a severance check dated 9-9-1999.

I contend that whatever negotiations that occurred were handled by the attorneys & the insurance company & Cain truly does NOT have access to such documents.

Other execs were probably eager to get this toxic employee out of their company & were wondering how long it would be before she accused someone else of improper conduct ‘which made her uncomfortable’.

I have seen such employees in my lifetime as a bookkeeper. The company cannot get rid of them fast enough.

One woman, chastised for absences & late to work & longer than allowed lunch hours was given a 2 week notice instead of giving her a severance check for 2 weeks & immediately showing her the door. She worked for a magazine publisher. Early days of computers. She wiped out all the subscription lists of all the magazines that publisher printed. Then walked out the door with her check.

It took them weeks to restore all those lists.
