Need to hear more from Newt. Cain needs some good advisors! So sad!

[bert]

You over look the overriding motivation.

Sanctimonious self righteousness is the motivator. It over rides the redemption tenet.

It is far more valuable to publicly display self righteousness than to forgive.

[Hot Tabasco]

I am suspicious of your motives. You must pardon me if I have wrongly assumed.

Don't worry, you haven't, he just doesn't like Cain, pure and simple. He's bashed him from the get go, almost to the point of being psychotic about him.....You'll see him trash Cain on virtually every Cain thread running.

Cain could be JC and Stormer would trash him for feeding the masses only bread and fish........

soiling her panties. If she wears panties

Depends.

"Cain is a public figure. Winning a libel lawsuit is extremely difficult, as I’m sure his attorney told him. Life is too short to play second fiddle to a media consumed by unproven sexual peccadilloes."

You're correct on the first part but when it comes to the second part, Politico is in deep, deep do do here and I'll bet you dollars to donuts their legal department is in crisis mode worrying about a little thing called "malice" that , if establish, could lead to not thousands, but millions of dollars in settlements and, or ....... jury damage awards. I wouldn't want to be in their shoes!

Go get'm L. Lin Wood! :o)

First as someone said Bachman was too mentally unstable, Perry was a racist, Palin well we know what they did for her
and now they are on Cain. Media will continue until they have last man standing. Romney.

[mel]

Wonder how Cain is polling

[Georgia Girl 2]

I almost fell over when Lin Wood walked out on the stage yesterday. I would hate to have him after me.

[mel]

I think they have underestimated Cain.

[Netizen]

You’re so right. I’m fascinated sometimes to read FReepers’ posts pig-piling on someone for misdeeds/sins in the past. Most here profess to be Christians, but “redemption” is a basic tenet Christians must believe in in order to claim the title of “Christian”. People do change.

Exactly! He has said that he behaved badly in the past and regretted it. H converted to Catholicism, where I think confession comes into play. Absolution is just that.

Those Christians that want to keep nagging at Newt and his so called baggage would do well to remember:

Matthew
14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

I’m switching to Newt. Cain is innocent but he looks like a buffoon trying to defend himself from the “honey trap.”

Good choice. Switch from the one with false accusations of adultery to the one with verifiable proof of adultery.

Wait until the media starts on Newt. Easy target with lots of baggage - he'll "appear" buffoonish within a week after the attack machine starts on him.

You might as well save time and start supporting Romney now if you're going to provide your support based on how the left attack machine makes a candidate appear.

[Arm_Bears]

Indeed—He was just supposed to hang his head and slink away. That he’s fighting back has to have surprised them. Things will get far nastier going forward, I expect.

On another note, the tacit agreement with these unsupported allegations against Cain by most of the other GOP “candidates” tells me all I need to know about them.

[Mind-numbed Robot]

Great comments and advice.

[stormer]

Neophyte? Hardly. Cain was a senior advisor to the Dole campaign in 1996, had a brief presidential run in 2000, and ran for the Seante in 2004. He’s been on the board of the Federal Reserve and has basically worked as a lobbyist or a fundraiser since the early 90s.

[stormer]

Uh, can you read?

[stormer]

People who endure multiple arrests and agree to pay $15,000 and refrain from working in politics for three years because of their own underhanded activities are not “superbly qualified” to work in an environment where image is everything and the slightest misstep can crater a candidacy. Period.

[stormer]

No, it looks like the ad was shot in a monochrome so you can’t tell what color his eyes are.

[Balding_Eagle]

“Block has been accused of voter suppression and was banned from running Wisconsin political campaigns for three years to settle accusations he coordinated a judge’s re-election campaign with a special interest group.”

Everyone who favors photo ID is accused of 'voter suppression'.

What did he actually do? Or is that putting to fine a point on it?

[Balding_Eagle]

None of these jokers has the temperament, intelligence, or ability to be President of the United States.

By default, the answer to your question 2ndDivisionVet about who stormer supports, has to be Obama.

[2ndDivisionVet]

That’s what I took from it, as well.
