Cain “Aint" Able to get into my Pants

Rate: 0 Flag

I’m confused, is Herman Cain a member of The National Rifle Association or The National Restaurant Association?

Aren’t you annoyed that the media establishment only refers to the NRA when they report all of these numerous allegations of sexual harassment?

 

I for one am getting fed up with this vast right wing conspiracy cover up. Don’t you feel that “we the people” have a right to know by now which association that the Cainster sexually associates with?

 

On that note, I know that the Republican Party, that “bastion of moral integrity” would never support any candidate who would sexually harass anyone, whether it be a woman serving a hot dog on a warm bun at a restaurant, or a woman you might ask to grope the large gun you are hiding in your pocket.

 

Even Weiner, whose very ample size of knockwurst we were forced to view via texts and tweets was clear about what associations he belonged to, even though one of them was the NAACP, not to be confused with The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, but for The Natural Association of the Active Caustic Penis.

 

Come on, wake up and smell the ammo and the coffee. Do you think it really matters to most Americans whether or not the Cain has a history of fondling bagels or bullets?

 

What really matters with this case of sexual harassment allegations and others is that we have not made it clear as a society whether or not it really even matters that men like Mr. Pizza Pie have affairs on their wives or harass women by the dozens.

 

President Bill Clinton allegedly had a flock of women he juiced immorally with, but for some reason, the voting public mostly forgave him. Perhaps it was because he seemed to have this ‘Good Old’ boy’ next-door type of charisma, which Americans seem to actually like. 

 

This “charisma” phenomena thing also worked for President Kennedy and even President Roosevelt, both of whom apparently also had a double meaning for what the word “is” was when it came to infidelity.

 

But what we are not exclusively discussing marriage infidelity here; we are talking accusation of sexual harassment and possible sexual assault on the part of Cain.

 

Pundits and politicians across all party lines are yelping and griping about what really constitutes harassment; whether or not it even matters to voters, and whether it should.

 

As a woman who has worked in corporate America as well as in the private sector for a multitude of jobs --  I can now safely say that I know what sexual harassment is, and that it will be a factor in whether or not I vote for anyone who seeks low or high offices.

 

There is a difference between being called “hot” and given a whistle while you walk through a well-oiled hallway,  and being called into a room where a boss has his pants down when after which you are told he wants you to take a memo in your mouth. 

 

Yes, that was an unforgettable memo I chose not to transcribe or brag about on my resume.


As far as I am concerned and I predict is the case with much of the public at this point, Cain “Aint” Able to be elected for the highest office of the land, not just because he is a righteous bastard . . .  but because he doesn’t have any good, smart, sensible or sensitive ideas about politics, be they foreign or domestic.

 

And by the way, “aint” is one of his favorite words.

 

Hold the phone- I am having a Sarah Palin PTSD moment. Remember when she said she could see Russia from her house as her Alaskan neighbor? I am still reeling over the fact that Cain wasn’t aware that China had nuclear weapons.

 

Forget the 999 Plan. 

 

If Cain is Able to become president in 2012, I’m calling 911.

Men are dogs. I know this from personal experience. We like to do certain things like, eating left over pizza, marking our territory, chasing female dogs and smelling them (among other things), and looking sad when our masters tell us that we were 'Bad Dogs!" Good thing for us dogs, that Gloria Allred hasn't decided to take up the cause of our females, because if she did, the dog parks would no longer be as much fun for us. I'm sure Gloria is a dog lover, but you can hardly blame her if she wants to make the decision of the proper pedigree of dog she might wish to have her bitch mate with. We humans are faced with the same dilemma when deciding who should be our supreme commander, one of the most powerful men in the world, with the power to effect both life and liberty. Sometimes we accept that powerful men want the perks of their status, and in some cases do not demonize them for their human transgressions in such a harsh manner, Clinton for example. At other times we band together to try and preserve the dignity of the office. In Nixon's case, it was the lies and the coverup that did him in. He didn't philander like Kennedy, Clinton, and I'm sure countless others, but his lack of political savvy put him in the doghouse. Doggone it, Cain is just a semi-normal guy, obviously without any modicum of respect towards women, and oblivious to the political reality that if you want to be the big dog, ya gotta try and keep the lying and coverups to a minimum until you are in office . Even then, there are dangers you will be found out, and have to pay the consequences, but at least you would have had a chance to have your picture on our rapidly devaluating currency.
