Herman Cain Caught Lying in GOP Debate

Herman Cain has been caught lying in last night's GOP debate. Cain, who was the former deputy chairman and then chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve throughout the 1990's, had been opposed to an audit of the Fed. He had also said that Ron Paul supporters frequently ask him "annoying questions" about a Fed audit, even accusing the Paul campaign of sending agents to harass him at every event he attends. According to the Daily Caller:

The Daily Caller obtained an advance copy of Cain’s book, “This is Herman Cain,” which goes on sale Oct. 4. In the manuscript, Cain claims Paul’s campaign “sends one of its ‘Paulites’ everywhere I show up.”

“I get the same stupid question at almost every one of these events,” Cain writes. “I know it’s a deliberate strategy. How can a person randomly show up at a hundred events and ask the same stupid question to try to nail me on the Federal Reserve? It’s really becoming annoying more than anything else.”

If your interested check you tube. He has emphatically said the Fed doesn’t need to be adited.

He didn't say any such thing in the video linked to on the blog. If you have another Youtube video where he does say that give us the link.

>> “BTW, where do you think the money that 85% of Palin supporters is headed?” <<

.
Gold, Guns, and Bullets, if they have a shread of sense!

None of the remaining “candidates” has the least desire to fix what is wrong. At this point, I don’t see one worth my vote.

CONGRATULATIONS!
You're the retard of the day!
You've called the Republican front-runner a liar for saying something he's never said!

Herman Cain berates people that call for audit of FED.

STATES: NO NEED to audit FEd.

He’s a liar as last night proved.

I heard the same thing this morning on the Mike Church show. I am a little confused about what Herman Cain said that was so offensive to anyone that wished to audit the Fed Reserve in the past, and how it differed to his answer.
I have really become annoyed with the Mike Church show in the past weeks, and this is one of many examples. I rarely listen to it anymore.

Consider laying off the sauce.

That is an opinion he once expressed. How can an opinion be a lie? The lie is saying that he said he "opposed" an audit.

No he didn’t. I think you’re a bald-face lying blog pimp.

I don’t think you help Perry one bit pinging into a Cain attack thread by a Ron Paul supporter. Better to let it go.

in fact, I would recommend everybody just chill a bit, try to find some nice positive things to post about your candidates, in the off chance that there is still someone here at FR who is actually undecided.

I don’t see how anybody benefits from a thread titled “Cain Caught Lying”.

Not where I come from.

That land grant college of yours really let you down. You and Perry have that in common.

I was on this thread before you showed up. How that constitutes "obsession" is beyond me.

Go cry to the mods. You're too thin-skinned to handle responses that don't agree with you.

It’s bizarre. Maybe he really does hear Cain say things in those videos that the rest of us can’t hear. I wonder if he saw that chupacabra run across the stage behind Ron Paul?

Where does Perry stand on that? He is the vaguest candidate in the race. People may not like 999 but it’s specific. That’s my problem with Bachmann, too. It’s easy to say what’s wrong and say “I believe in thus or so” or “we need to fix XYZ” and it’s another thing to have a real plan.
