The Cain Scrutiny: The more nettlesome the facts, the more insane the reaction
« on: November 08, 2011, 11:25:36 AM »
When DU gets this batshit insane with Cognitive Dissonance I start feeling better about any given controversy. This is how we know the issue is in the terminal trajectory towards abject failure.

Witness: Cain accuser hugged him during Tea Party meeting a month ago
 They hugged each other backstage in a full embrace like old friends.

She grabbed his arm and whispered in his left ear.

She kept talking as he bent to listen, and he kept saying “Uh, huh. Uh, huh.”


“I don’t know if what she was giving him was a sucker punch, but he didn’t put his arm down while she was talking to him,” said the Sneed source.

3. Republicans lack souls. n/t

Bialek's friendly gestures towards Cain are proof of Cain's lack of soul.

Got it.

4. Cain didn't put his arm down?
 What does that mean? If you'll please excuse the expression, was he trying to feel her up?

6. it doesn't erase
 that he is an serial sexual assaulter.

Except maybe he's not.

7. weird
 This story is getting strange.
"
I know I wouldn't be hugging someone who did to me what Cain alledgedly did to her. Maybe she's a flake. Maybe the "witness" is trying to discredit her?

Freeper troll!

13. A month ago I think she was still in denial -- and/or hoping that
 maybe he'd apologize. Remember, she was a firm Republican, and a Tea Party person, and she wanted to like him.

But when she heard about the other women, and realized he was a serial abuser, she changed her mind.

8. One explanation
 Karl Rove orchestrated the whole press briefing yesterday by Witness #4 because he and other GOP operatives are getting really nervous about Cain's high poll numbers.

Rove may have convinced this woman that it was her duty as a good Republican and card-carrying Teabagger to make up this story and present it to the press, since none of the other women were willing to step forward.

I'm not sure I actually believe this, but it's something to mull over.  

So does mean Rove must be defeated so Cain can prevail or should Rove win so Obama can be protected?

11. No way her allegations are true
 As a "good Republican and card-carrying Teabagger" she's a liar by definition.

So you're saying Cain is being set-up.

12. Okay, let's put our therapist caps on.

She said that she met him a month ago, asked him if he remembered her, and what happened. Although she'd tried to put the whole episode behind her for years, it sounded like she was still hoping for an apology.

And this was a month ago -- way before all these other allegations came forward. So one after another these other stories came out -- and hearing about all these other women, and what they'd been through, she finally stopped blaming herself and being embarrassed about what happened, and thinking maybe somehow she was unique or somehow partially to blame -- and finally got angry enough to speak out.

This seems like pretty normal behavior to this armchair psychologist.

14. That could be the case, but that picture really hurts her case.
 It's quite the contrast to her teary press conference. I think the account in the OP is irrelevant. Everybody expected character assassins to come out of the woodwork.

And then the thread is derailed by a case of mistaken identity, photoshop accusations, mea culpas, and general stupidity.  :mental: Don't row over if you value your brain cells.  SSB already did the heavy lifting.

That's a whole lot of hate and crazy there.

Boortz was talking about this Sharon Bialek on today's show.  She's apparently one of those serial accusers from the heyday of the 90's.  "Trouble with a capital T."  People are looking into her.

The fact that the only non-anonymous accuser has a record of false accusations, and a photo that indicates that she was on friendly terms with Mr. Cain a short awhile ago really brings the accusations into doubt.

Yeah sure, if some dude came on to me like that, I wouldn't be like "ooooh stop, Mr. Cain...wah, wah, wah!..I'da bashed him in the head and then called the cops...Who in the heck would believe that elementary scripted bs?    Oh, her story got better as she became a much more relaxed "LIAR" as time went on..

Funny how Gloria just chases em all down like flies on crap......she's disgusting too.

The old gal is 50 years old and a single mom. She has perfect white teeth, blonde hair and doesn't look bad for 50. She was single 15 years ago and dating a doctor. She's still single and claims to still be a single mom. She looks like she has been well kept...and she has had numerous jobs/positions. It all spells "Gold digger" to me.

She's 50. She has probably lived more off her looks than off her abilities. She's 50 and the looks are going fast. Rich old men are looking for younger women to spend their "affair" cash on. She has just about used up he assets and this is about her last chance to make a big score on her looks.
