Cain's Campaign Just a Giant Grift?


TPM2012

Herman Cain Spends $100K In Campaign Cash On Herman Cain Inc.





A review of Cain’s last two FEC reports shows the campaign transferring just over $100,000 in cash to Herman Cain T.H.E. New Voice, a company that promotes Cain’s books and political philosophy.

So, is Herman Cain's presidential run just a Palin-style long con? Probably. But somehow he has accidentally found himself in first place. It's basically The Producers but with pizza.

Pat Robertson is the biggest bag of scum

Why anyone would ask Pat Robertson for financial advice is beyond me, but this lady gets pretty much the exact answer you might expect.
Pretty much you can't expect God to help you if you're not paying him off.
What a dick.

Occupy the Boardroom

Mike Huckabee says it Out Loud

Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee galvanized hundreds of supporters of Issue 2 Friday in Mason – by jokingly urging them to stop opponents from voting.

“Make a list…  Call them and ask them, ‘Are you going to vote on Issue 2 and are you going to vote for it?’  If they say no, well, you just make sure that they don’t go vote.  Let the air out of their tires on election day.  Tell them the election has been moved to a different date.  That’s up to you how you creatively get the job done.”


Yeah, that might have been funny if this sort of voter suppression wasn't actually being done by Republicans in real life. I don't know if anyone has actually sunk to slashing tires, but they have certainly sent fliers to likely Democratic voters saying that the election date had changed or that their polling place had moved.

If you have all these, then by God, you represent Democracy in Action. You are what's best about America! If you are peacefully assembled to make realistic demand, you're a bunch of drug-addled hippie bums. Everyone knows that.
