Yeah, right! Like Farkers ever leave their mom's basement.

This one is the very definition of a non-story.

But she claimed he asked the waiter for two $400 bottles of wine, and then stiffed the rest of the group when it came time to pay.

That man is 100% Republican.

Asking a woman out to dinner is not wrong.

Asking to be set up is kind of creepy, but not wrong.

Asking the woman out who declined to set you up is one step below asking for a restraining order.

Donella told them: "And after the seminar was over, Cain came over to me and a colleague and said, 'Could you put me in touch with that lovely young lady who asked the question, so I can give her a more thorough answer over dinner?'"

She was "suspicious of Cain's motives and delined to set up the date," the Examiner reporter wrote.

That prompted Cain to reply, "Then you and I can have dinner." Instead, some of Donella's co-workers suggested a group outing.



WHAT THE fark!?

This is what's called sexual harassment? Dude asks for a meeting with a woman from someone who could have gotten in touch with her.

That woman declines to pass on the contact. The man rejoins with a joke about having dinner with the woman who cockblocked him just in case. 9/10 women just laugh and imply you ought go, then you do and everyone's happy.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE.

Of course it could have become a date with Donna. Anything can suddenly become a date with a woman if you're a man. Ever see a porno plot? "I'm here to fix the TV." "Fix me instead." "Okay." That scenario almost never happens in real life, but if it DID most guys would be into it. That doesn't mean every time a guy says "I'm here to fix X." he's actually asking to have sex with someone. Quite the opposite.

In this day and age it's just best for a man to avoid all contact with women and children, not even eye contact.

"He looked at me and I felt uncomfortable" is all it takes to be slapped on the Sex Offenders list.

doglover: This is what's called sexual harassment?

I didn't see anywhere in the article where anyone called it harassment. I'm not really sure the point of the article, actually, except to maybe make Cain look a little worse than he already does, which isn't necessary at all.

After I RTFA, it appears that he asked a women out to dinner. But so what? I have nothing against bisexuals.

No one actually called that harassment, but froth away.

Picturing Cain saying "Then you and I can have dinner" while doing the slow smile from is commercial is kinda creepy, but this particular story isn't harassment.

I think the Cain campaign is behind this woman coming forward.

They hope her non-story makes the whole accusation string seem less offensive.

Then why on earth is it even an article? It's not even a smear piece, unless we're making the writer of the article look bad.

Seriously, smear campaigns make me sick. Isn't Cain a republican? What more evidence than that do you need to not vote for him this election. The sexual harrassment suits at that point are superfluous. This article isn't even superfluous, it's just stupid if it's not even a charge.

And stiffing a group of people for two 400 dollar bottles of wine? Boo freakin' hoo! I don't even know where to BUY 400 dollar wine, and I like expensive booze. If you walk into a place like that, you can afford it.

doglover: Then why on earth is it even an article?

Because the details of the two situations are similar. It really doesn't get any deeper than that.

doglover: Then why on earth is it even an article?

Media outlets are, as a general rule, worthless and feed on scandal or even the appearance of it. And I did not intend for it to appear as if I were defending this POS article. I just wanted to make clear that the woman wasn't alleging anything improper took place, despite what subby would have us believe.

These allegations are not even the number one reason to not vote for Cain. To quote Andy Borowitz, "I'd rather have Herman Cain harass me then govern me."

Her ass ment a lot to me.

She said she didn't witness any "inappropriate sexual behavior" at the group dinner. But she claimed he asked the waiter for two $400 bottles of wine, and then stiffed the rest of the group when it came time to pay.

Sounds like Presidential material to me. Let's revisit the past few 2-term presidents. Bush II stuck Obama with 2 wars and a tanking economy. Clinton stuck Bush with a dot-com bust tanking Wall Street. Reagan stuck Bush I with a tanking economy. Nixon stuck Ford with a crisis in confidence in government in general.

Herman Cain is our next 2-term president. He's perfect for the job.

Should've watched this film, then he would have known what to do

This is just an attempt to get more hits and attention from all the hype.

indeed.

That'd be a lot funnier if it weren't so true

shanrick: Her ass ment a lot to me.

Yup. And you can't spell harASSment without ASS.

skinnycatullus: To quote Andy Borowitz, "I'd rather have Herman Cain harass me then govern me."

Wow. There's a lot of damn truth in that. At least when he pulls my head to his crotch, I can bite him.

heh so very true

skinnycatullus: These allegations are not even the number one reason to not vote for Cain.

No; they're merely giving supporting evidence.

The number one reason is the probability he's the sort of delusional self-centered corporate C-level sociopath that sociology journals have been quietly raising their eyebrows over during the last few years.

/any Farkettes damnfool enough to visit Hooville to join me for dinner tomorrow evening?

Well did she want a job?

Someone please explain why Herman Cain deserves to be defended.

Every FARKer who has ever left the basement

We're allowed to do that?

Lando Lincoln: Someone please explain why Herman Cain deserves to be defended.

Because the man has books to sell, damn it! BOOKS!

Quasar: This one is the very definition of a non-story.

Agreed... but I do wonder at what point people are going to start including that Cain was married at the time.

Has anybody mentioned that his shiatty "policies", batshiat crazy economic plan and that he's apparently an islamophobe also DQ from being POTUS? Kinda pathetic that this guy is the right wing frontrunner

Theaetetus: Lando Lincoln: Someone please explain why Herman Cain deserves to be defended.

Because a lot of conservatives politicians think it should be legal to sexually harass female employees. Look at the pundits - they're not denying that he did it, they're saying that there's nothing wrong with it. Farkabee even said that harassing women is just Southern "hospitality".
They're not defending Cain... they're defending themselves.

You spelled that wrong.

Democrats should be ashamed of themselves. This is not honorable political warfare.
