What you said, every word of it. I personally know a small horde of FR Cain critics. They can get down and dirty in a hurry, and no, I don’t like it. However, there is one thing they’ve got in common: they are all ardent supporters of either Newt or Perry.

Now when you get a poster whose sole mission seems to be advancing the liberal smear, then there is only one conclusion, and you drew it.

If this slime-meister can point me to scores of posts where he enthusiastically advocated for his conservative candidate of choice, then I will stand corrected.

Otherwise, Troll It Is.

Tell you what, Fantasywriter. I'll pay attention to anything you have to say if you can explain (without name calling) which of the following is a "vile smear" against Cain:

- My criticism of the 9-9-9 tax plan as increasing taxes on seniors, businesses that operate at a loss, businesses that make little if any profit, average families, etc.
- My statement that running a campaign based on increasing people's taxes so they have skin in the game is electoral suicide, regardless of whether I agree that they should
- My criticism of Cain saying that it's OK to ban mosques under the 1st Amendment since that doesn't discriminate against any particular religion
- My criticism of Cain for that "blank look" on Libya and not knowing what the "wet-dry" policy is
- My criticism that Cain accused someone of asking a "gotcha" question by asking whether he agreed to easing Cuba travel restrictions
- My criticism that he's never been in government and developed a public record where we could see how he'd govern
- My criticism that he uses the same old "I'll get good people" line when he doesn't know the answer to something
- My criticism that Cain keeps denying these allegations but never sues anyone despite hiring a nationally famous libel/slander attorney
- My discussion with others about whether Cain's campaign advisors violated campaign finance laws but setting up a non-profit and paying for Cain's travel and equipment

I could go on, but I'll let you start with that. Surely you and your superior logic skills and reasoning can explain how those are all vicious smears.
