Isn't it amazing how many distorted events surface if there is an R by one's name?
 

Isn't it amazing how these women who have been "violated" by Cain have been satisfied to be quiet until now!! What a coincidence? BS!!!

Isn't it amazing how diligent the media is on every network to make sure we are aware of the latest trollop to come forward?

And isn't it even more amazing when another politician is involved in something that is much more significant, much more impact on we the people and yet one has to search far and wide? Oh yeah that would be Eric Holder and the gun runner scandal. What is the difference? Well for starters Holder has a D after his name...and most importantly he works for Obama.

On an issue that reaches much farther into the effects on the USA, that touches significantly more people, hence more news opportunities there is almost no coverage at all.

But when the "systems" research uncovers potential gold diggers, Katie bar the door.

I would think even the opposition would be concerned with the behavior of the media and their distorted exploitation of an individual for political benefit.

Totally disgusting and blatantly flaunting it in front of we the people.

Put yourself in their position.

For the sake of argument, assume some violation took place.

You were paid for his misdeeds and avoided public charges. You were paid for your silence. At the time, it was "just another bigwig" who, form your point of view, should have paid for his misdeeds.

Now you see that he's a few steps away from being the President of the United States.

You risk having to pay back the money you received (years ago - meaning it's most likely gone) in order to let the country know what kind of man YOU encountered.

It doesn't matter if there's an R or D after the name. You think "D" gets a free pass? Ask Gary Hart what he thinks about that. Ask Anthony Weiner. Bill Clinton didn't exactly get a 'free pass', though he survived.

John Edwards is smiling pretty boy that got the longest-running "free pass" from the media. Not only about his low-IQ bimbo and love child, but about his campaign slogan of "The Two Americas....the evil filthy rich vs. The Poor", while he was living in the 28,000 sq. ft estate worth $5-6 million...

I wasn't looking for a justification as that is not relevant in my inquiry.

I was merely looking for a comparison of improper behavior by two public figures and the simple fact one happens to be sheltered because he is a dem within Obama's ranks, hence no exploitation of the wrong doing...no keeping the public in the know about the wrong doing. No pursuing of the multitudes of opportunities to uncover more of the story.

Whereas Cain's alleged wrong doing is jumped upon immediately by the media and every nuance, credible or not, is pursued and reported on.

If the media treated Cain as Holder the allegations would be non events.
If the media treated Holder as they are Cain...Holder would have been forced to resign by now.

DJP as for your comment:
"...in order to let the country know what kind of man YOU encountered...."

You really believe the trumped up publicity in any way reveals what kind of man Cain is? An incident from 10-15 years ago? It is about as relevant to what kind of man he is as the unfavorable revelations from Obama's past that were very quickly categorized as what a person just did that many years ago.

And in today's partisan polarized America to say it does not matter whether an R or a D is either wishful thinking....an attempted smoke job...or very naieve or you are employing the legal justification of past events to justify the present.

The thread addresses the obvious discrimination by the media for alleged wrong doings.

I cant think of one president that wasnt a pig at one time or another I dont care who it was.

Not thinking very hard.

The intent of this attack on Cain is obvious. He has risen in the polls and someone looked back at his history and found something that could detract from his message. The events occurred 15 years ago.

Cain should have had these issues vetted before running.

Again I say I will stay focused on which candidate ,in my opinion, has the skill sets that will allow him/her to successfuly execute the duties of the POTUS

The press knew about John Edwards girlfriend and love child but kept it under wraps for months even though the Enquirer had it for months on front pages. How blatant is that? How do you spell hippocrites?

Hypocrites.

Me thinks you would be singing a different tune if Cain had a D behind his name. And as for Holder if he lied then he should go but remember the previous administration had the same program. Not a peep out of the right in regard to that.


I know a little about sexual harassment having seen a co-worker taken over a man's knee an spanked and I watched as it was covered up. Well I did speak up and said I would go to HR if my boss didn't only to be told the woman didn't want to do that. In the end that was something she regretted for quite some time.

Your a riot. NOT.

It is good these women have spoken up now.

Because, We The People DEMAND Cain answer these questions, and We The People will NOT allow Cain to just brush these allegation aside. They will not go away. There are laws against sexual harrassment - when, and if, this guy is proven to be a lair then We The People will demand he be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

When these incidents took place is irrelevant - what is irrelevant is that they are being brought to the surface before it is too late, and this incompetent ********* gets vetted fully BEFORE any elections or primaries takes place.

Hopefully, the R's will vet this guy more than McBush vetted The Wasilla Quitta.

Your racism and hatred are not in your best interests if you want people to give any thought to what you have to say. Try thinking.

Yea right, just like John Edwards, Bubba Clinton, Ted, the swimmer Kennedy and all the democrats in the past.

when there is only partisan venom in the pen what else can be expected in the writings.
