Once again, the National Restaurant Association would not pay anyone around $45000 in separation money for just an allegation against their CEO. They paid to keep her quiet and to make the situation go away.

Don't forget there were several women who also came forward and said the same things about Hermie.

Well, Hermie's popularity numbers have now dropped to the single digits and getting close to the zero. Mittens keeps his numbers pretty constant.

By the way, have any of you uber-conservatives ever tasted Godfather's Pizza? It is every bit as bad as Hungry Howie's in Wildwood.

Until there is some much needed tort reform it is often much cheaper to just make a settlement with lawsuits and is common practice. This was chump change so you know it was flimsy, at best.

led my dumb brain to think that what shocked you was a PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE saying something in front of RUNNING CAMERAS was the shock....further stated by "a politician who isnt running for office might get away with it" and I just wondered why the person THIRD in line for the President of the United States saying worse about a sitting President might shock you, but you are right...it is about Cain and I can only suppose that you are shocked quite easily since the threads on Speaker Pelosi, to my knowledge, had no SHOCK from you

Perhaps the definition of normal decorum is what separates us

You caught me. I should have been more careful with the way I said it. Pelosi wasn't running for national office where the scrutiny is something that, to be honest, "mere mortals" can only imagine.

This is a case where two wrongs don't make a right. Cain's comments in NO WAY absolve Pelosi of responsibility for her own uber-partisan insults.
