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.”

You Paultards are completely off the rails. Did Dr. Evil even utter a single syllable last night?

Oh, I was wicked strong behind Palin as a noob. My posts were quite well-received. And it’s not like there is something to “watch and learn.” For all you know these people have been watching and learning from their “superiors” here on FR for years. You know nothing about these people and are just rude.

Since you are in the West Wing, can you tell us what the secret construction is about?

maybe you prefer Ron Paul ?
the man who said that Iran is not a threat,
and that is would be a good thing,
if they had nuclear weapons ?

...and Cain would have a MUCH better “National campaign office system” that you seem to think is so important,
if he was a career establishment politician,
like Paul, and Romney and Perry.

i think it is refreshing to see someone who is doesn’t come from that world. someone with real life business experience (and not like Romney’s type).
A man with a math and computer degree.
unlike someone who couldn’t get good grades even in business courses.

Ego trip? So Perry loves his country more than Cain?
Perry even supported Al Gore, as a democrat, because he has so little ego...

sure, i don’t like the 999 plan either.
but, it’s still a big improvement, and, importantly,
it brings the discussion mainstream, which the flat taxers have been trying to do for years. (and, Cain might eventually go for flat or fair, if elected !)

One man’s rude is another man’s assertive. Live with it.

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.

When questioned by Ron Paul about his position on a Fed audit in last night’s debate, Cain suddenly changed his position. He claimed he never used harsh language when referring to Paul supporters and insisted Dr. Paul shouldn’t believe everything he reads on the internet (um...no, Sir, its not an “internet rumor”....you wrote it in your book). Cain then went on to say he is not opposed to a Fed audit.

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

When Paul( the crazy uncle in the attic) called him on it last night he flat out lied.

When Paul( the crazy uncle in the attic)...

That's the first true thing you've said. Which is surprising, considering that you're probably his crazy nephew.

One of my problems with Cain is that he doesn't think before speaking and he doesn't respond well to criticism.

The Fed absolutely has to be abolished, or we cannot survive as a free nation.

I wish that most Freepers would or could see the truth of that.

That’s the second one day troll I’ve seen. The other is a paid supporter of Perry on another thread. The posts are straight from a campaign consultant’s lips.

well, Perry has tons of money.
he needs to spend it on something. ;)

He claimed he never used harsh language ...

That is not what he was accused of and that's not what he said. You're repeating the lie from the blog.

Uh, where did he ever say he wouldn’t audit the fed? Finding Ron Paul idiots annoying hardly is the same as refusing to allow an audit of the fed.
