Herman Cain Press Conference: “I Don’t Even Know Who This Woman Is” (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, November 8, 2011, 4:03 PM
Herman Cain is holding a press conference this afternoon to discuss the recent sexual abuse allegations by Sharon Bialek.
Herman Cain: My first response was, “I don’t even know who this woman is.”
“I have never acted inappropriately with anybody period.”
“The charges and the allegations I absolutely reject. They simply didn’t happen. They simply didn’t happen.”
For decades the American public have wanted a businessman in the White House and not just another politician.
We are not going to allow Washington or politics to deny me the opportunity to represent this great nation.
I’m doing this for the American people and for the children and grand-children.
This is an attack by the democratic machine.
I ask the media to leave my family alone. They have stalked my family.
I will not allow false accusations to shed badly on my character and my integrity.
I will repeat. I have never acted inappropriately with anyone.
Question: Lie Dectector?
Answer: Yes, I would be willing to take a lie detector test.

I quibble with “abuse”. How about sexual “improprieties”? He’s accused of indecent conduct, not of aggression or violence, as far as we know anyway.

I hate to break it to the MSM, but if we rejected every male who ever made a pass and got turned down then we would have a field of absolute ZERO to choose from.

Herman Cain was a pioneer who more or
less wrote the book on sexual harassment
[Those settlements occurred at a time when the restaurant industry was
struggling to deal with a surge in sexual harassment claims. According to
statistics provided by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission,
the number of claims in eating and drinking establishments spiked from
961 in fiscal 1992 to a high of 1,581 in in fiscal 1996. The number
continued to stay above 1,200 per year until 2000.
Restaurant industry complaints made up a significant portion of the total
sexual harassment claims: In fiscal 1997, for example, restaurants saw
1,481 complaints out of 15,889 — 9.3 percent of the nationwide total.
Anita Hill’s charges brought a “heightened awareness” to the issue of
sexual harassment, said David Scher, a sexual-harassment lawyer at
The Employment Law Group law firm.
When it came to litigation and bad publicity, Scher said,
the restaurant industry “faced some of the worst of it.”
[..]
The NRA’s Educational Foundation began offering a training
program for member restaurants called, “What’s the Big Deal?
Sexual Harassment Prevention Program,” in addition to its
ServSafe safety and alcohol training materials. Today, according
to the ServSafe website, restaurants can purchase employee
and manager training brochures, as well as DVDs to explain
acceptable practices.
Scher, who observed the NRA’s actions at the time and has read about
them since, said the organization’s actions were, at the time, a proactive
step.
“It was a reaction to a huge uptick [in these cases],” he said. “There’s
just so many cases in the industry of harassment and discrimination that
I think this was a response.”]

Herman is not qualified. I wish he was, but he’s not. No foreign policy knowledge? In these times? No, no. It’s suicide.
We have better candidates.
RedBeard commented:
Lie detector? Well, there it is. I’m sure the accusers will go first, since they are so very honest and sincere.
Mama Grizzly commented:
I wrote a lot on the next post down.
This is orchestrated to make you think the conservatives are winning against the liberal left machine with Herman Cain. It’s pitiful and embarrassing.
Hailee commented:
Have you ever seen a candidate take all these questions from the hostile media ever? He thinks on his feet, I’m sending him money!

jim;
since someone can produce a receipt for her stay at the dc hotel and for the dinner he bought, we can easily find out if cain is lying and if he knew her.
if he lied about that, then he has lied about it all and them all.
repeat:

someone needs to get a hold of the hotel records and restaurant records.
that’s all.

Amen Herman..
she could probably
THIS IS WAY WAY WAY OFF, BG.
HIS BLANKET DENIALS ARE DESIGNED TO KEEP HIM FROM ANSWERING IN ANY DETAIL.
IT’S A FORM OF OBFUSCATION.
HE HAS NOT COME CLEAN.

this is your chance to tell us something you weren’t involved with.. duh!!
Earth to idiot questioner:
flashback to November 5, 2011
Politico’s smear campaign against Herman Cain sputters, derails
[- The WaPo is also reporting that the current NRA President and
CEO Dawn Sweeney "said an agreement was reached 'without an
admission of liability,' and that Cain, now a GOP presidential
candidate, was 'not a party to the agreement.'"
Again, proving Cain's claim that he was never involved
with the resolution of the accusations against him.]

Do not let these media cabal lead the narrative. Time to fight back against scam artist and white trash wants to cash in to bring down a black man.
mcc commented:
I thought he hit it out of the ballpark. He took questions and gave terrific answers. I wouldn’t be suprised if his support goes way up after this.

I’m pretty sure the obamannites are trotting out the white blondes to try to dissuade black voters from voting for Herman because he digs the “white women’. It’s actually smart if you’re assuming that we are all dumbasses….
