Herman Cain’s Sexual Harassment Accuser Says He’s Lying

Republicans… ha ha ha

As part of every “settlement”, both parties agree (under penalty of perjury) to NOT discuss the case with anyone. I would be interested in finding out what (WHO and HOW MUCH) prompted this person to violate this agreement.

Herman Caine for president? I don’t think so! his only digging hismelf deeper in the hole he created, Shame on you Hermain Caine!

“Settlement” . . . “Agreement” . . . now we’re down to what “is” is. I’m a Republican, but this guy isn’t as smart as I thought. On top of all of this, he had a 10-day window in advance, knowing this story was coming out to prepare. You could clearly see he was lying in some of these interviews with statements like “I don’t recall that.” Hell, is somebody accused me of something like this, my answer would be vehemently, “THIS NEVER HAPPENED.” More in common with politicians than he’d like to admit, as he sat on the board of the Federal Reserve in Kansas City. Yeah, a real “outsider”.

What an innocent man would say is: “Yes, I remember it only too well. There was nothing to it, but it was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life.”

This guy is a political novice. He didn’t expect to be a front runner. He was only trying to increase his speaking fees. Good luck now.

He knew 10 days ahead. His team didn’t advise him? Probably not much of a team.
How can you not recall if someone filed a sexual harassment suit when there was a payout!

He is done.

“When I was initially hit with this … I didn’t recall it right away..?? That’s a bold face lie if I ever heard one. That’s not something you “don’t recall right away”. He just needed time to figure out he was going to get out of this one so he could stay in the race.

I truely believe that Cain is as inocent as Clarence Thomas…Not!

This is what happens to any conservative, black male who dares to express a political idealogy different from the democratic slave masters (ABC, CNN, MSNBC and the democratic party). I’m sick and tired of the plantation owners constantly preaching to the American people that our economic, social and political problems can be solved by more taxes and more government. And if you decide not to drink this kool-aid, the slave masters will do everything in their power to destroy your reputation and character. Answer this question, do you recall the slave masters asking Barack Obama tough questions about Jeremiah Wright or his drug use?

The Obama payroll has far reaching tentacles, doesn’t it? Why didn’t this “story” come out when Cain was a virtual nobody? As soon as he soars to the top of the Republican party, geez, here’s the story. Everyone knows that frivilous law suits are filed but knuckeheads and losers daily in hopes for financial gain by having the other party settle out of court to avoid larger costs. It’s another example of our broken country — liberal judges that would allow any case to come to court rather than throwing them out. Look for more stories like this to surface as the election gets closer. Obama and the dems have nothing else to stand on. The country is tired of lies and the “leadership” and “change” it has gotten from Obama. He is simply the worst president we have ever had, save perhaps Jimmy Carter and that’s questionable. We need to take America back, and we will. YES WE CAIN! CAIN 2012

I am really loving this field of GOP candidates. This is reality tv at its best. From Gingrich’s multi-hundred thousand Tiffany’s bill, to Rick Perry’s loopy speech this past Friday, to Cain’s electrified fence, to Romney’s taking of both side of issues, on a daily basis. I’m loving this.

Wait a second…she’s coming forward because she feels that Cain is publicly slandering her even though no one knows her name and he hasn’t said anything about her….mmmmkaayyy. I smell ‘gold digger’ in the air.

Have we not learned anything from Supreme Court Justice Thomas. He was guilty and yet this political machine-Rebs placed this man in a permanent high position of the nation for life! Don’t just want Cain because of his COLOR to run against Obama. STOP IT AMERICA! This man Cain was guilty and it was only his money and position that got him out of his mess. He is lying already and you want this man as a candidate.

Can’t we all get back to focusing on Obama’s birth certificate??????

Did Mr. Cain believe that he could just say that no incident ever occurred and that no one would look any further? It sure makes that smile on his smoking commercial look sort of creepy.

Wow. The left is really running scared. Two anonymous accusers speaking thru attorneys, lobbing the sexual harrassment charges now. Yeah, it’s time to step up the attacks against Cain… And they MUST be true!! (But even if not, a lot of folks believe anything they hear in the msm – and they vote too! What’ve we got to lose??) – - – - Will a liberal canidate ever see such scrutiny? Doubt it… This Thomas-lkie circus only applies to conservative men. And dare I say black conservative men…

The real takeaway on all this is the disgusting hypocrisy on public display by the lamestream media in going after what is really a non-story when compared to John Edwards or worse yet, ignoring claims by Juanita Broaddrick and other woman about Slick Willey! Even more disgusting is the uber-left’s attacks on Cain equating him to big-lipped, watermelon-eating Uncle Tom who would glady sit in the back of the bus to appease his Masters. Really!!! I find that to be a bigger story than this BS, yet why isn’t the lamestream media covering some of that! And talk about racists! There seems to be a lot more of that residing on the far left than the right!

Cain is going down. He’s just another in a long line of Republicans who burn out early in this election campaign. Not a good idea to run when you have skeletons in your closet like this.

He’s a prototypical CEO personality in that when the boss owns the room, he can make authoritative statements that need not carry the full weight of logical integrity since they do carry the full weight of the boss’s opinion. As such, statements are accepted by subordinates, who include everyone in the room. This showed up here and it also showed up in his glib disrespect to the “-stan” countries when he was really just covering up for his own ignorance on the issue. He’s not happy with focused follow-up and the rigors of being held to standards other than his own. It’s the same for talk radio hosts, which he was one, who own the microphone, if not the room. He should get out of politics asap. He does not have the skills or the intellect for it. But rest assured he’s for sale to all donors; individuals, corporations, unions, business associates, whatever. Owned by the highest bidder, and never the lowly voter.

Yeah, Bob, everyone’s got skeleton’s in their closet. If we couldn’t elect folks based on that, we’d be without any politicians/leaders. This is a skeleton that should be ignored.

Of Course she is saying that, there is more money to be made, follow the money, she is being paid, she is being paid, she is being paid, if it was SO traumatizing as she states then it would have went to trial and a conviction BUT NO she was about theMONEY, PERIOD, End of discussion, you can argue whatever but not this. The reason for the Gag order IS so a frivilous accusation doesnt destroy someones reputation, SO NOW THAT she has violated the gag order she should return the settlement WITH INTEREST, see she wasnt harrassed, it was about the money!!!! This is such crap.

I don’t know about anyone else but I don’t want a President that has such a poor memory.

Oh hell….let’s get over this and see how Michelle so hates us so she goes to Hawaii on our dime.

The real takeaway on all this is the disgusting hypocrisy on public display by the lamestream media in going after what is really a non-story when compared to John Edwards or worse yet, ignoring claims by Juanita Broaddrick and other woman about Slick Willey!

LOL! Once again the very selective memory of the Right kicks in. According to them, no one on the Left who was involved in any kind of sex scandal ever got investigated, it was all just ignored. But every single person on the Right who even made an off-color joke has been hounded to death by them. Why can’t y’all just take your lumps here? The Left was forced to ‘grin and bear it’ during the Edwards fiasco, the Weiner’s weiner scandal, and the rest of the ones where our guy did something stupid. Sex scandals aren’t new, and they are just about the single most bipartisan thing that happens in politics today. So sorry, Righties, y’all just need to sit back and plaster a strained smile on your lips and shut the hell up while Mr. Cain implodes. You KNOW that this is the result whoever it was on the Right who leaked this stuff actually wants. There are TWO GUYS who directly benefit from Cain being ousted from the GOP presidential nomination race. Their initials are MR and RP. Figure it out………………..

Must have touched her on her shoulder. Either that or there was a hair on that coke can.

And remember, folks, this is just one of the TWO scandals Cain is dealing with today. The other being the improper campaign funding allegations, which could actually lead to criminal charges if proven true. Mr. Cain certainly ACTS like a Republican politician, fending off both a sex AND a money scandal at the same time. I’ve started a pool to predict when Mr. Cain will officially withdraw from the race, citing all the ‘distractions’ he’s facing because of these scandals. When will he pull a Palin? My money is on November 11th……….

“Clinton left office with us in surplus.
Bush left office with us deeply in the toilet, which we still haven’t been able to climb out of.” – A Count Ant

Clinton left office with a Repub Congress.
Bush left office with a Demo Congress.
Congress controls the money.
You should be able to understand money A Count Ant.

I don’t understand why Cain didn’t bring this up himself earlier and get it over with. It’s ridiculous to think it would never come up. Doesn’t he have an Eli Gold type person on his staff to handle such situations? For those who don’t watch the Good Wife, Eli Gold is a character who vets candidates before they run and then handles spin control. Why doesn’t Cain and Restaurant Association consent to disclosure and get this gone.

You want pepperoni on that pie? Yeah baby. Amazing grace how sweet the sound…

Confidentiality agreement. That says it all. The only reason to have such an agreement is because, “Now that we’ve paid you off, we don’t want you telling anyone else. It would hurt our client to have the truth come out”. And right back at you people saying the women were only after money, why else would they agree to a CA. Well, how about why would you pay anyone off a large sum of money if you were innocent and could prove it? Works both ways.

This is funny because Republicans have made this country into a “take all the money you can and screw everybody else” type of country. Now Herman Cain is falling victim to that! HA HA!

“Clinton left office with a Repub Congress.” “Congress controls the money.”

So the mess we find ourselves in is the fault of the republican congress we have right now, right?

Clinton left office with a Repub Congress.
Bush left office with a Demo Congress.

Not that this has ANYTHING to do with Mr. Cain’s alleged sexcapades, but how would you characterize the first six years of the GW administration, when the Republicans controlled both Houses in Congress AND the White House? That six year period where our federal government grew to RECORD size and spent RECORD amounts of money to prosecute TWO wars ‘off the books’ (and pass the completely unfunded Pill Bill) while simultaneously cutting federal revenue via the temporary Bush tax cuts? How would you characterize an administration that spent money we didn’t have by borrowing from foreign sources while, at the same time, deliberately decreasing our own revenue stream? The rich got a LOT richer under GW Bush while the country doubled its National Debt and wiped out the Budget Surplus that he was handed in 2001. What say you to THAT?

Accusations and proof are not quite the same thing. Anita Hill did the same to Clarence Thomas…another attempt to bring down a conservative who scares the h*** out of Obama.

Sea; I also fly an airplane. 145 knots (do the math). I built it in my garage! I guess you haven’t done that either. Right? I talk to you people as a pass time.

He’s a disgrace! There was a payoff? You know none of these clowns are fit to be president…I look at BOTH sides and there are liars, cheats, etc. on both. Tell me ONE politician who is honest and if they are when they get in office they become dishonest. The problem is you need money to run and if you get contributions you owe big time! Again I have said over and over just put them on tv for a few times having people call in at random with questions. Let them give their views and that’s it. Enough witih the traveling all over the country, spending tons of money on mudslinging ads. It’s unreal! Stop the fraud and corruption. It just keeps happening because we the people allow it. We get caught up in campaign lies and scare tactics and instead of concentrating on REAL issues we vote for someone on his or her views on gay marriage, abortion, religion. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Pastime is the correct word.

Go ahead and butter him cause he’s TOAST. You can’t just keep changing your story every day and have people believe in you enough to be president.

Sea; We did….. in 1974. 23-0. Of course we weren’t pro’s. Cain? Who knows. I can’t wait for the “any one but Obama” vote. Tebow? It wouldn’t be the first time. I remember Nebraska’s Jerry Tagge (sp). You guys are pretty cocky with your Obama.

Talk is cheap.

Come out in the open, make your accusations in the light, and be able to substantiate them, or shut up.

You made this claim for money, or you wouldn’t be unwilling to give the money back, to tell your story.

Some confidentiality agreement. This gal has already broken it big time.

As I remember Jenniifer Flowers didn’t matter.

It is HILARIOUS that the Right thinks Obama/the Left are “running scared” from Cain. Watching them trying to shift blame from Cain to “the media”? Puhleeze. Trust me: Obama would LOVE to run against Cain. The only ones who are “running scared” are those on the Right, as they have possibly the worst field of candidates in the history of the Republican party.

As for the title of “worst President ever,” George W. Bush will likely maintain that dubious honor in perpetuity. His foreign-policy fiascoes in the Middle East, coupled with fiscal and political policies at home, are largely responsible for the sorry state of our nation. It cracks me up to read the Right complaining about “deficit spending.” Where were all of you when Bush was running up the deficit? Obama looks downright fiscally conservative compared to Bush. Nothing funnier than the Teabaggers with the Medicare-provided scooters jawing on about “government programs.” It’s corporate welfare, tax breaks for the rich, and the TRILLIONS spent on ridiculous, never-ending foreign occupations that got us where we are today. Deal with it.

Oh, man … now he is playing the “race card”. I can’t believe how many candidates for public office are unable to keep their hands to themselves or their peckers in their pants. Amazing.

Yawnnnnnnn. Nobody cares

1) Pro-Cain: Old school guys are not always sure where the line is and mean no offense. (no excuse, just a reason); if not complaints have surfaced since, the inference is that he learned his lesson; some women (especially Caucasian) are more uncomfortable around African American men than the situation warrants and read things into innocent actions that are not there

2) Pro-Accuser: Court cases can be traumatic, so accepting a settlement is often the quickest way to put an unpleasant event behind you; signing a confidentiality clause does not indicate a lack of a case; the size of the settlement (if a year’s salary) certainly indicates a bigger problem than Cain implies; if a confidentiality agreement is is place, Cain has probably broken it, which does not mean that the accuser can (or should) do the same, she seems to want to obey the law

Another note: This is just the kind of dirty trick Rick Perry is known for in Texas. Just sayin’

ATTOMIND: “Some confidentiality agreement. This gal has already broken it big time.” – - – How has SHE broken it? Have you read it to know its provisions? How do you know for a fact she has spoken PUBLICLY about this to anyone? How do you or anyone else know for a fact that she had anything to do with this story getting out? ANYONE who knew about what happened back then could have told ANYONE in the other Republican camps about this issue so THEY could break the story. I have seeen several of the FOX News talent state they have heard “rumors” about how it was one of the Republican candidate camps that leaked this story. As far as I know only her Lawyer has spoken about it publicly, but NOT her. You and many others are presuming WAY WAY too much about who leaked this story. You and many others just blindly and irrationally trust Republicans and are blindly and reactively prejudiced against anyone with different beliefs.

YL: “Cain did not break the confidentiality agreement. He had to answer the liberal media accusations.” – - – And you know for a fact that the confidentiality agreement does not apply to Cain how exactly? If it did/does apply to him then he did in fact break it and he is then subject to legal consequences. IF the confidentiality agreement did not apply to him then he did not break it. And NO he did NOT “had to answer the liberal media accusations” OR the FOX News questions IF the confidentiality agreement applied to him. Even if it did not, he did NOT have to answer questions. He had a CHOICE, and ten days to prepare. Heck, for all we know HE and/or HIS people are responsible for leaking the story. IF he/they thought generating sympathy for him would help more than the story would hurt then HE could have leaked it. Who benefits the MOST from leaking the story? It is possible that Cain could end up benefiting the most, so that makes it possible he is responsible. Never underestimate how creative political strategists might get. Until someone takes responsibility for leaking the story all of the Republican competition is suspect, and maybe even Cain.

Step out and face the public woman if you are going to make these charges. Sorry, but a public figure should not be dammed by someone hiding and making accusations. Posted by: Ken | November 2, 2011, 10:52 am.

She made the accusations years ago, got paid off, and signed a document saying she wouldn’t talk about it. Until all the parties who signed the document agree to lift the gag order, she cannot legally “face the public”. I’m amazed that Cain himself is disclosing details, albeit sketchy, about what happened. The more he talks, the more he changes his story, the guiltier he appears. And in politics, appearance of impropriety is pretty much the same thing as actually acting improperly. Especially today. The seed has been sown, and it cannot be unplanted now in the minds of the people who were on the fence about this guy anyway…………….

The minute this accusers name is revealed they have broken their agreement to settle and can be sued and brought to court for violation of said settlement. A settlement is not an admission of guilt either. Usually its a way to extort money from someone out of court and it could be considered extortion if the accuser cant prove damages.

a public figure should not be dammed by someone hiding and making accusations—HE has HER under a gag order! These women complained about him LONG before he ran for president, when nobody would ever expect he’d be running for president. He’s so dumb he talks out his butt without knowing any of the facts, or is lying, he’s pullng the race card. For God’s sake right wingers had Obama’s face on pancake mix and NEVER have Obama pulled the race card. He’s done. For GOd’s sake you’re got Romney, WHY are you wasting your time on this. Just makes all republicans look bad.

There are plenty of people who would be more than willing to compensate the allegedly sexually harassed individual for violating the “gag” order! The small amount of money involved does not justify her not publicly explaining what she knows! It is suspicious if she doesn’t come forward!!!!

So he’s no better than Clinton? Is that the standard the GOP is settling for? Nice to know.

My goodness, how quickly this woman has come out of the woodwork and hired a lawyer. Why hire a lawyer? Why would someone take the case when she cant sue? Obviously she is in it for something and Ill lay 10:1 the democrats have gotten to her and offered her something

Alright, Cain says there was no inappropriate behavior. The unknown females lawyer says there was. Easy fix here folks, the Association waives the confidentiality agreement, both parties state their case, all of us decide, case closed.

If Cain was a liberal black man, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Rev. Wright would be out there calling for the head of the accusor.

Three women have now come forward? I don’t necessarily think something is so just when one person comes forward, but three? That spells the end for Cain. I feel badly about it, I had actually decided to vote for him. Now I cannot.

Cain has extended the scrutiny beyond the mere veracity of his accusers. The more telling aspect is how he’s handling it. If he’s all rosy and guilty-free, there would be no reason for his to deny, “forget” and provide the weasel responses.

He’s was particularly reckless telling the press one of the women was fired for an unsatisfactory job performance. Here’s he’s flaunting all common-sense personnel confidentiality safeguards –particularly in light of a dispute–and opening himself and his association to legal liability. Veracity of his accusers aside, this is a very stupid, irresponsible action.

I was sexually harrassed over 40 years. I was beyond surprised when, about 15 years ago, the person who sexually harrassed me relayed to me HIS version of what had happened. Interestingly enough, while there was some truth there, it was WAY off the mark. If you’ve been sexually harrassed, you don’t forget even the most minute details … and you don’t change your story. In my experience, those who harrass, DO change their stories. m.

Ludicrous. It was never even a court issue. It’s ridiculous corporate BS, and it’s coming out of Perry’s camp. Has anyone who is condemning Cain seen a smoking blue dress? No, of course not. They’re forming lynch mobs based on edited sound bytes from poor journalism. Cain is in the lead because smart people know he can fix what’s wrong with America. Those who want America to fail will naturally support Obama, and the ridiculous rheteric the liberal media is forcing down our throats. Enough said. This is just more crap for the networks to get ratings, and the printed press to sell papers. Why should anyone even care about this nonsense that supposedly happened nearly 20 years ago. Give it a rest!!!

“The woman, according to Cain, took offense when he told her that she was as tall as his wife, and put his hand on his chin to indicate the difference.” And she got year’s pay. Right.

The person who thinks Cain is guilty because she got a full years severance is a fool. She didn’t get it for his guilt, she got it for the company not paying legal bills which always happens. Also, how can these women even talk, they under the agreement not to talk. He only talked first because they talked behind the cameras which is illegal. And now they are going to say that he talked when he was responding to them violating the law. Where is this fair. These women are scum bags.

This has nothing to do with the actual accusations or agreement or settlement or whatever you want to call it. It doesn’t even matter that someone is trying to smear Mr. Cain. Herman Cain should have been upfront and honest from the beginning. Now he is just another liar, just like he lied about auditing the federal reserve. Once a liar, always a liar! He should have just told the truth! The truth shall set you free! Do we honestly need another lying politician running this country?

“how would you characterize the first six years of the GW administration, when the Republicans controlled both Houses in Congress AND the White House?” – Searambler

Those were the years when he kept his RINO tendencies in check and spent less.

Blah, blah, blah. What person is without sin? So, who cares about his imperfections … the people arn’t crying out for a saint. We’re crying out for quality of life! And, as long as his integrity is to deliver that to us … that’s all that should matter!

“Onething Clinton had consenual sex with adult women… he didnt sexually harass them.. big difference…” – bkisses

Yeah, BIG Difference!
In Clinton’s case he led on an impressionable young woman, letting her believe they had a meaningful intimate relationship that could go somewhere as opposed to Cain who made some comments about a woman’s attractive beauty.

You guess which one was more damaging.

Several of you libs have made statements similar to CEE: “You don’t forget someone making those kinds of allegations against you, and you don’t just forget giving someone a whole years’ severance.”
I realize that Liberals wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them on the lewinski and their moral compass spins like it’s in the Bermuda Triangle, so I shouldn’t expect any better. Still, if you don’t know what you are talking about, you should keep your mouth shut. About 15 years ago I was accused of rape by a girl who I refused to go out with because he was obviously a bit unhinged. I was jumped in public by a group of women who were going to take me down. Oddly, what saved me was one of my friend pointing out that I had no problem getting women and that I certainly didn’t need to rape that idiot. I came very close to prosecution for rape when I had never even been on a date with this girl, much less alone with her in her apartment. At this point, I don’t remember her name, nor cold I pick her out in a line-up. All I remember is that I was scared because there was nothing I could do to defend myself and she was a short blonde pain in my behind. Anything I said would have been taken out of context and taken as rambling of a guilty rapist……because that is how liberals handle things. The women who came after me were the worst kind of liberals….men hating feminists. This isn’t the only reason I despise liberals. More than 15 years ago I taught middle school. A union rep asked me to join the teacher’s union; I refused. This guy kept hounding me for days, finally telling me that if I didn’t join the union, they couldn’t protect me WHEN one of the little girls accused me of touching her. It made me so mad that I explained to him that IF I was accused, his behind would be the first one I whipped when I got out on bail. You liberals think that any low-down, amoral technique to get your way is OK because it is “war”. If it was war, there would be a risk for you liberals getting the hell beat out of you. In that case, I am positive that you would hide like the cowards you are. Good luck Mr. Cain

Herm’s blatant lies about ‘he forgot’ about two sexual harassment settlements with pretty hefty payouts (it would be the $45,000 times two now for inflation, so nearly $100,000 payout!) reminds me of the old Steve Martin skit of ‘how to make a million dollars and never pay taxes’. In Martin’s skit, when the IRS agents show up at your door to collect the taxes, just say “I forgot”! But we all know Koch-Cain is just the court jester here anyway. I mean really, can we get any more red flags for the second coming of the liar-in chief???

This is amazing…no real people just figurative victims not named or brought forward with no actual cases to show any valid harassment and this is a story? Bill Clinton has to be laughing…he actually did pull his pants down in the flowers case and walked with no charges or consequence. Of course he is white….
