Where Cain's real loyalty lies

[jstern01]

If there was any doubt, who are Cain's benefactors and where his real loyalty might lay. His long history and association with American's For Prosperity is outlined below.

Just another Koch-sucker.

imagine that.

I actually liked cain in the one debate I watched.. I thought he sounded like he knew what he was talking about.

Then I found out that he worked for the federal reserve, and I saw how the whole focus shifted off of Rick Perry and onto him, even while Ron Paul was STILL kicking ass and taking names everywhere.

The system is broken. Media outlets giving schill candidates like Cain all of this press is effectively voter fraud if they fail to mention that Ron Paul is still there, still at the top all year. During that time we've already seen the Bachman, the Perry, and the Romney fall by the wayside.

Cain's also been caught lying about his past w\ the federal reserve. I would think that if there was no sort of guilty conscience that he would have no issue talking about it.

Cain sounds like a good guy, I'll consider voting for him.

It's a great organization and a lot better than being backed by Ayers, Rev. Wright and the black panthers. You need a Cain to beat down Obama.

 

[momeNt]

Just watch. The MSM will end up tearing down every GOP candidate except Dr. Paul because they can't risk talking about him, leaving exactly who they don't want as the candidate. Or maybe they do want him? Doubtful though.

All you need to know about this puppet:

He is the former chairman and CEO of Godfather's Pizza and a former chairman (Omaha Branch board 1989–91), deputy chairman (1992–94) and chairman (1995–96) of the board of directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

In the last debate, he said he would want someone like Greenspan as the Fed chairman. I thought that was an insta-disqualifer with the Republicans.

republicans obviously are in the midst of a giant identity crisis.

Spidey, economic policy-wise most Americans would probably benefit more from policies backed by the Black Panthers than policies backed by the Koch brothers. Always vote your self interest ahead of your fears.

I don't think the republicans really want to win this election. They want to win Congress with a veto-proof majority and then when their ideas don't work, they can still blame Obama in 2016.

Then they control all 3 branches and then we know what happens then.

So with this news, hardcore progressives will now change their vote away from Cain.

Hell, some people are saying the Greenspan line was a jest.

Even if he meant it, I'm currently having trouble throwing out everything good he stands for. Am I to hang my hat on the Federal Reserve, all by itself? That's not the only issue at stake here.

That's so funny considering that the Republicans have never had that power - but the Democrats just did, and blew it so badly that they lost a Massachusetts Senate seat.

 

[Slew Foot]

Id rather be associated with "Americans for Prosperity" than "Americans for Food Stamps".

I think Brown is going to have a major challenge running against Elizabeth Warren.

The Republicans want to win this election a lot. Their state policies for vote suppression across the country, their sabotage of the economy, are for that purpose.

You are quite easily fooled. First, you can't understand that the name "Americans for Prosperity" has policies that HARM prosperity. Second, you immorally oppose a safety net.

You think the Republican's would have loved Greenspan because he was an instrumental player in the housing bubble.

You want an example of voter suppression look no further then my State but we are going to rectify that situation in Jan 2012

It wasn't. They're wrong or lying.

Even if he meant it, I'm currently having trouble throwing out everything good he stands for.

Toward the tail end of Tuesday night's WaPo-Bloomberg debate, the Washington Post's Karen Tumulty asked Herman Cain who he felt was the most successful Federal Reserve chairman. Cain briskly responded with "Alan Greenspan," saying that "the way he coordinated with all of the Federal Reserve banks" was admirable. Fellow candidate Ron Paul then (predictably) followed up with a blunt "Alan Greenspan was a disaster."

Cain's response warrants a double take: even Alan Greenspan publicly acknowledged that Alan Greenspan was an abject disaster.

Greenspan isn't a bona fide Republican now? He's been a Party member all his adult life, was one of the inner circle of Ayn Rand's disciples and was appointed to the Fed by Saint Ronnie Reagan himself.

Personally I'm always a bit surprised that Cain has such an economic and financial background yet continues to spew only the talking points of his 999 huskster plan, claiming his (undisclosed and refuses to disclose) experts have the answers whenever he gets stumped-like when he was asked if an Apple computer is an American product or not.
