that you infer is legit

Please tell me where did I did that? See my post #149. If it was real, you think I would be the first one to post it? lol... Google is your friend... Cheers.

Herman Cain would unite America a lot more than Obama ever dreamed of.

[normy]

Then why did he call abortion a social choice and that it shouldnt be part of the political discussion?

[US Navy Vet]

“James Cargill’s wife is Mary Matalin, a huge republican RINO”, there fixed it!

"Herman Cain would unite America a lot more than Obama ever dreamed of."

The most telling thing to me was watching Juan Williams on Hannity one night taking up for Herman Cain. And when he talked about Mr. Cain you could see a pride in Jaun's eyes. I'm not so sure that even as big a liberal as Jaun is that he would vote for obama over Herman Cain.

"Then why did he call abortion a social choice and that it shouldnt be part of the political discussion?"

I have no idea what you are talking about with that one. I used to listen to Herman Cain's radio show that came out of Georgia on Saturday afternoons. I caught it over the internet. And he was always as pro-life as you can get.

Maybe he is like many other's who don't think the supreme court had any business in making a ruling about abortion in the first place and that's what he meant? That it's a states right issue and that the supreme court erred in taking on the case? Other then something like that, I don't know.

ìNo. I am not going to vote for Barack Obama because he is black and I am black, as some people will do To paraphrase Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we should judge a candidate based on the content of their character and their ideas, not the color of their skin.

Barack Obamaís ideas for changing this country are disturbing to me, because they add up to more taxes, more government, more handouts and less individual responsibility. A lot of people who are excited about his candidacy have not looked past the word ìchangeî. I have, and all of his ideas have socialist leanings. It does not sound that way when he is delivering one of his inspiring and eloquent speeches, but thatís what it is.î

Cain also railed on Obama on his radio show before the elections. Here he is on FOX talking about how bad Obama would be for the economy (10/08) . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIzJHAw8Vmo

She doesn’t even show up on the campaign trail to help her own husband. What does that tell you?

Looks to me like she would rather keep Obama in the White House, than a Republican, even if he is her own husband.

What it tells me is that you don't know what you are talking about. She has made appearances with Cain. She was at a fundraiser I attended - look at my profile. That was at the Lenox Grill north of Atlanta. She spoke a bit there and she is VERY supportive of Mr. Cain, and I know for a fact she is also a social conservative.

She was at his announcement rally also. See picture below:

She also supported his 2004 Senate run:

Hang in there, doing great, and you are so right to address the CUT/PASTE, CUT/PASTE. What if there was a thread and no one answered CUT/PASTE, time for that?

Herman Cain’s own article in 2004:
“Affirmative Action is a Negative Step”
http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/2004/04/28/op_413767.shtml

I find it interesting that people gang up on Cain for TARP, ignoring that Romney, Perry and Gingrich all supported TARP. And TARP was paid back.

Santorum and Bachmann didn’t, but they have supported other big government bills that continue to drain from our economy. Bachman voted yes to Patriot Act, Violent Radicalization and HomeGrown Terrorism Prevention ACT of 2007 and Cybersecurity Act. Santorum voted yes to No Child Left Behind, Medicare drug entitlement, 2005 highway bill)

[MNJohnnie]

I see don’t bother with the facts when there is a good personal attack smear at Cain to spread around instead

[GloriaJane]

What a beautiful family!

[BereanBrain]

I guess he is honoring his marital vows even after 30 years and her being a democrat.

Would you rather think it more noble to divorce your wife because you can’t get along with her because of politics?

In my book, this makes him more electable, especially to the “swing” vote.

MORE LIES.

Attempting to distract and spin. Right out of the gates attacking Newt and turning this thread into an anti-Newt thread.

[Lucky2]

I agree with you my friend! I voted for Clinton but the first time only. Didn’t care for Bush Sr and Perot was an idiot. Meanwhile, once I met Mr. Lucky2 and was re-programed, I’m 100% conservative. We are all allowed to mature and change, possibly Herman did the same. I for one will vote for the candidate not the wife and who knows, she may just be a Rat in name only.

HUH??? Pardon Me, was I/did I address you?

Do not and never underestimate the power of the Tea Party Movement.

Do not and never give an inch to the libtard media.

Obama has to run against his record and the last 4 years of screwing up our economy and nation.
