The "Make Fun of Herman Cain" Thread

Cainachu! I choose you! :smiley:

Manly men like pizza with lots of meat. Meaty meaty meat. Manly meat. Veggie-laden pizzas are for sissies.

Nothing manlier than cramming your throat with a bunch of ground-up cow and pig assholes.

Herman Cain On Libya: Which One Was That Again?

Cringe-worthy video on that page.

I’m against it! Reasons to follow!

I’m waiting for the day he starts singing Jigglypuff in an attempt to put everyone to sleep after a particularly bad gaffe

That was even worse than the Perry brain fart. Lasted longer, and he started to answer a few times, then realized he was wrong.

Yeah, that’s what Cain said!

Yeah, Perry spaced, probably because he didn’t review before the debate. Cain, simply didn’t understand the question. The information wasn’t in his noodle.

I’ve seen it advanced elsewhere that when Cain says “nope that’s a different one” he’s unintentionally referring to the script he memorized. He was giving the answer to a different question that he was coached on.

No, he understood the question, he just couldn’t get his mind around which country Libya was and what Obama had done. But the thing is, it’s not like there are dozens and dozens of such countries. At most, there are 3. He seemed exhausted and disoriented. But really, how hard is to remember what Libya is, and what happened.

I want to see a reporter ask him which side he liked in WWII: Roosevelt or Hitler?

The Cain campaign tried to downplay the clip later in the day.

“The video is being taken out of context,” Cain spokesman JD Gordon said, according to MSNBC. “He was taking questions for about 30 to 40 minutes on four hours of sleep. He didn’t say anything wrong or inaccurate; it just took him a while to recall the specifics of Libya.”

I shudder to imagine President Cain getting that 3 AM phone call.

“Sir, the Ubekibekibekistanstanis are threatening to launch their nukes.”
“Which one was that again?”

I will be even more charitable and say he knew about Libya and Obama’s position, but he was frantically trying to come up with a way to spin it to make Obama look bad.

I’ll say it again: please God let this man be the Republicans nomination! Has there been any polling data that has looked at the public’s perception of the GOP before and after this primary season? An observer of their candidates might reach the fair and balanced conclusion that the GOP consists entirely of a bunch of nutjobs, whackadoos and idiots.

“Got all this stuff twirling around in my head” has to be one of the best lines ever by a Presidential candidate polling in double digits in a primary season.

But he is twirling towards freedom!

Yea, he comes up with the name Quaddafi and that Obama had him overthrown on his own (though he doesn’t exactly sound confident that he has that right), so he was at least aware of what the US did in Libya. But he pretty transparently doesn’t have his own opinion about it, and is struggling to remember what his handlers told him his opinion should be.

Which wouldn’t be so bad if it were a more obscure country, but Libya has been the top international news story for most of the time Cain has been running for Prez. Its kind of unreal that he obviously hasn’t spent a little time thinking about it.

I think it’s more that he was done in by a logic bomb, just like a villainous '50s sci-fi robot. In the context of the overthrow of Gadaffi, he had to select from his only two acceptable options: “Did I disagree or not agree with Obama?” DOES. NOT. COMPUTE.
