Excellent post.

Cain called her a “friend” whom he had helped financially.

That’s enough, right there, for people to fairly ask the questions you posed.

Cain said she wasn’t acting like a friend whom he had helped, by revealing her identity and claiming an affair, and he denied they were having an affair.

So, for years he was fine with her as a “friend” and with financially helping her, until she claimed the affair, but now all these people including our talk radio hosts attack the woman and don’t even deal with what Cain admits.

They make me sick.

You have a right to be disturbed that, by omission, Rush makes a statement. It is about the greater battle with him, and his respect for the brain of his audience. We are likely going under, which makes some conservative’’s sexcapades very small potatoes, especially if it should be traced to another Republican. Just my 2 cents. I do agree with you that he went after the women who are, so far, all mouth and no blue dress. Of course, something is fishy when this financial assistance is outside her knowledge.

Oh phooey. If Sarah can short cut Cain’s name and be cool calling him “Herb”, it works for the rest of us. It has nothing to do with “hate”.

Go kill time back at the carnival. I think I will rejoin the adults now. Thanks anyway.

If Cain flew White to various cities, the airlines would have records showing Cain as the payer and White as the passenger. And correlations with his travel schedule would be hard to explain as “trying to help a friend.”

When those records turn up please ping me, otherwise I'm buying none of it.
