It's Newt or Mitt and if it ain't Newt, I think it's 4 more years with the current admin.

And when Cain drops out, the majority of his support shifts to Newt. Same thing will happen when Perry and Bachman drop out.

Fins to the left... Fins to the right... All these big egos.. they always seem to think they are going to be the ones to beat the machine... he was just another seal swimming with sharks...

I'll play it. If Cain was a white liberal, this isn't as big a story. The major networks sat on the John Edwards story for so long, they waited for the National Inquirer to break the news.

There are no lengths that liberals will not go to, in order to destroy women and blacks who have the temerity ro be conservative. They sure as hell did it to Clarence Thomas, they did it to Palin, and they did it to Cain. Let's see what they do to Marco Rubio, should he be the VP pick, and he better be...

The media sat on the story because there was nobody on record to report about for some time. With Cain they started coming out very quickly, and the fact that the allegations were initially about harassment is much more damning than an affair. Once the Edwards story turned into a cover up the media had no problem finishing him off.

"The media sat on the story because there was nobody on record to report about for some time."

Spence, the first several reports regarding Cain, were based on anonymous sources. The fact that none would go on the record, didn't stop the media from jumping on the bandwagon. Do you ever get tired of being wrong?

"The media sat on the story because there was nobody on record to report about for some time."

I play that card when it's relevant. Not when it has no bearing.

Spence, I'm STILL waiting for you to explain why it's bad for America when "corporations" buy political influence, but it's OK when public unions do it?

Or it was because the first two accusers had had a legal settlement that prevented them from going on the record. Settlement, to me, implies that Cain did something inappropriate. you may read it as he just did it to not deal with them. either way, did they think it wouldn't come out that he had had these settlements?

So was Fox News in on the Edwards cover-up then?

As I said, sexual harassment is much more newsworthy than an affair.

You're just going to have to get over the idea that this is all a liberal conspiracy to knock down a brother :)

B/C you appear to support the liberal, or at least non-R agenda, so you are required to be pro-killing babies and pro-union

Good point, the fact of a legal settlement does replace the need for someone to come forward in person.

I don't agree though that the fact there was a settlement implies he did anything inappropriate. A large corporation is always going to have many suits of various credibility. A corporate executive is a prime target and often it's just easier and cheaper to settle.

That being said, the settlements along with what looks to be a long affair does seem to make the overall character story pretty damning.

No, Fox having a heavy conservative bias isn't technically part of the media.

"So was Fox News in on the Edwards cover-up then?"

Funny you mention that. I watched the O'Reilly factor the night that story broke. O'Reilly mentioned that there was a story swirling around, but that he wasn;t going to mention it, because nothing was confirmed, and he didn't think it was right to speculate. How do you like them apples?

I'd guess there's something to the Cain accusations. I just don't like the obvious hypocrisy (obvious to anyone who sees clearly, that is).

RIROCKHOUND 12-04-2011 08:44 PM

I see.
If O'Reilly says it, it's good journalism, if MSNBC does it, it's a conspiracy.

Nebe 12-04-2011 09:12 PM

Anyone who thinks that they are getting news from any cable news shows is fooling themselves. They are getting opinions from the host and their guests. There is zero "news" available these days that is completely non biased.
