If Herman Cain is guilty, would it bother me? Guilty of what? Coming on to a woman, however boorishly? If the stories are true, any "guilt" he bears is confined to his marital relationship, and certainly ought not to be a crime.
If it is a crime, it's another side of the fence in GG's "Catching Pigs" story. So say I.

"If he treats his wife like that, do you think he will treat the country any better?"
Consider John F Kennedy or Franklin D. Roosevelt. Or (gag) Bill Clinton.
As to whether the charges are even true or not, Ann Coulter has an interesting investigative analysis on the origin of the charges in Human Events titled "David Axelrod's Pattern of Sexual Misbehavior".(http://content.eaglepub.com/?laPa4ZYL3K2HSh6O-bg1l5gciHWsuSMRl)
As part of the feminist campaign to empower women, there has been a push to require that a woman be believed, without corroboration, just because she is a woman.
This is madness.
Think of the women you have met in your life. Have you ever met one who lied? Do you really think there are no women who would lie, even under oath, for money or political advantage, or just to screw over a guy she was mad at?
It is one mark of a generous nature to be willing to give the benefit of the doubt to someone who has been accused without proof.

Did I say the accusations are true? Did I say he is guilty? I asked a question. How many women will it take for you to believe anything against someone you are for? Your answer to my question says that even if they are telling the truth it won't make a difference to you as far as your opinion of him goes. Are you giving the women that have come forward the "benefit of the doubt"? You don't seem to mind that there is no proof behind his innocence either:) I don't see your generous nature when it comes to the other side of the story.
You can lead an elephant to water but you can't make.......
There is always two sides. Only one is being posted here if I don't post. That doesn't make me either Dim or repug that makes me unbiased.
"Just the facts mam"

I think there is probably some truth in the allegations about Cain, but then I wonder why all these women have waited until now to bring up the allegations? Was it from fear, or not enough money, or not the right time for the best publicity to make money.

Then I start to wonder about how our wonderfully elected officials have been getting into politics. Most are career politicians, and lawyers, some have served some have not, but all of them are really good at taking 1 line out of a speech that was made 5 or 10 years ago and blowing it into epic proportions, with only a slight resembalance of the truth left.

For instance our President never won any elected office untill the presidency. He won every position he held either thru smear tactics or "The Good Ole Boy Back Room Deals", but never honestly. Now I look at America today and wonder what and how much Bush and Obama, have sold that was actually the peoples future and not theirs to even think about benefitting from.

Mr. Obama has received billions of dollars thru tactics that he made illeagal, but is skirting his own law. Therefore I think that this will be an election where we see every canidate put thru the washer and hung out to dry, regardless if it is the Truth or not. After all that is what Obama does.

The supercommitee will not come to any type of an agreement on the deficit. The can will either be kicked on down the road or the democrats will use it as ammunition for the upcoming election or both. We can not afford more taxes or restrictions at this time. We need to see less regulation, less taxes, and more breathing room for the people to get our country fixed, if we are allowed to.

Of course that is if we have an election. It wouldn't surprise me with the way our president is acting if he uses executive power, to say we are in a wartime situation, and the election isn't held at all, taking us even further into chaos. He has already abused his power by hiring more czars than any other president, working around congress and the senate to pass bills he wants, rushed his Obama Care to the supreme court, given amnesty to his illegal family, (if they are all illegal how can he be a US citizen), placed Musilims in high positions as his czars, killed the Nebraska pipeline that cost us 20,000 jobs now, (and he is pro jobs?), bailed out or granted handouts to most of his Good Ole Boys.

This smear tactic on Cain is only political in my opinion and we are about to see every canidate put thru it, if our president starts getting nervous. I am just excited that people are awakening to see things the way they are and not the way our politicians tell us they are.

We The People Are In Charge With The Grace Of God And His Infinite Wisdom!
All The Vetrans Have A Nice Weekend From Now On

The Goverment Is The Largest Drain On American Rights And Freedoms There Is
Banks Only Sell Balarney And Your Money

4petasake, post #6..."How many women will it take for you to believe..." Just one... with proof. "Are you giving the women who have come forward the benefit of the doubt?" No, I am not. The accuser with no proof is not entitled to the benefit of the doubt. If baseless accusations are sufficient for conviction, throw out the constitution and just hang the man!

WE ARE ALL INNOCENT UNTILL PROVEN BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT OF OUR GUILT!!! JUDGED BY OUR PEERS NOT THE MEDIA AND BALARNEY!! ROE VERSUS WADE, GAVE WOMEN THE TOTAL RIGHT OVER THEIR BODY? WHAT IF A MAN AND WOMAN CONCEIVED A CHILD, WHILE IN LOVE, SHE WANT'S TO ABORT (KILL) THE CHILD AND HE WANTS TO RAISE THE CHILD AS A GIFT FROM GOD! WHO IS RIGHT AND WRONG??????? IS THIS A CHOICE WE DECIDE AS INDIVIDUALS OR SHOULD WE LET THE GOVERMENT AND OTHER PEOPLE THAT I DON'T KNOW MAKE IT FOR US????

This doesn't seem very gentle Mr. giant:)

4petasake #11 "There has already been one that was settled out of court". Sorry 4pet, you misread the news.
The original scandal that David Axelrod's girlfriend dug out of the National Restaurant Association's supposedly confidential personnel files were not court cases, but severance agreements. Proof was not necessary, the accusation was enough to extort a "hush money" agreement. Happens all the time; it sucks, but what are you going to do? If you go to court and win, it costs you more than the hush money extortion. Still waiting for ONE with proof.

Men leave it all to the women after a divorce. I don't blame the women. My ex paid one month of child support. He was what they call A DEADBEAT DAD. I believe the majority fall in that category.

Don't agree with me so wholeheartedly, I am very seldom right:) As to your last question: Only the person and their circumstances should decide with Gods help.
Hope you had a nice Sabbath!
